This is just so good

Man, I'm feeling sentimental today, but in a good way. True to form I got drunk last night and watched White Christmas; and I cried so much. I think what makes it worse is I have seen the movie so many times and I know what's going to happen and where the scenes are that make me cry; and I start crying before the scene. It's hardly manly is it, but who cares? I like such weaknesses, to show emotion every now and then is no bad thing in my book.

And I've just sent Mandie such a sentimental email, you're right I am a sentimental fool, not sure of the old bit though! 

So I needed to break myself away from this sentimentality; and what better way than listening to this. I have not played it in a good while and forgot just how good an album it is. Serious music, I mean real dark and sinister; it has done the trick. Everyone should own this album, perhaps it's not the best choice for the festive season, but there is always a time and a place for good music. Oh, and the 10th anniversary edition has a great US mix of the album.

From Bing Crosby and White Christmas to The Manic Street Preachers and The Holy Bible. A path rarely tread I imagine; but hey at least it's not that girl who won the X-Factor murdering Hallelujah. There we go I'm back to my normal self.
