While driving to work, I saw a man sitting in a Soukline truck throwing a tissue from the window. We passed a couple of streets and I saw the same guy saluting and smiling to his fellow colleague, the one armed with a big green trashcan and a dangerous metal limb, which he will be probably using to pick up the tissue tossed earlier by his beloved friend. What a fucked up contradiction!! - I need my coffee now
Coldplay / Richard Ashcroft - Bittersweet Symphony (Live 8 2005)
One of my favourite musicians and performers! Growing up in the 1980s meant navigating the explosive changes in technology, culture, and social, political, and environmental issues that have occurred in the last 25 years. It is absolutely crazy; if a person was born in the 80s, time travelling to this person into the 50s would make more sense than suddenly appearing post-2020. It will look to him like an alien world. This music is associated with my memory of growing up, during my teenage years, university and first years of professional experiences and living life. It is associated with too many good memories and too many wonderful people. Hearing it makes me happy!!
