Day 40 - The Smiths - Panic
Another note from Mireille:
Burn down the disco
Hang the blessed DJ
Because the music that they constantly play
IT SAYS NOTHING TO ME ABOUT MY LIFE
What else could I do then agree? So I went down to the recordstore and downloaded the LP The World Won’t Listen under my jacket. (We had no internet back then and the sign on the shop said Free Record Shop, it didn’t feel like stealing. Also, the album featured a song called Shoplifters of the World Unite.)
She used to listen to these English indie bands, I used to listen to metal. Both music dj’s didn’t play on the radio. The Smiths were so different from what I used to listen to, but their lyrics were so great. Still are. Music on the radio, or on television, says nothing to me about my life. Hang the blessed dj!

About this/me
About this:
Inspired by Tuuur, who was inspired by Glenn Case, I will be posting some song of the day posts over here. This blog is written in (poor) English, but since I’m from the Netherlands there will be some Dutch songs and/or lyrics passing by.
About me:
I live in Alkmaar, the Netherlands, a short train ride from Amsterdam. I like open source software, open-minded people and bars open all night.
