XMAS music Blondie and Fab 5 Freddy's Yuletide Throwdown (Cut Chemist Remix) Pure early 80s sound with a more modern sensibility. I really like this mix.
Man, you're really putting the rest of us to shame ah... I'm not very ...lyrically inclined to have something at the top of my head to be putting up here so I hope you'll excuse me while I make a post about a movie that I like.
Or actually, why don't I piggy back on yours and put it up here as well, with your permission of course.
Blue Valentine. I think I'd seen it when it had first come out--this was way back in 2010, right after my accident, and even now, after all these years I don't think there's a better film examining the break-up of a marriage as heart-breathtakingly done as this one. You really feel sad that the two protagonists are going through what they are, and just want to give them a good shake and put them back together again.
I know it might not be everyone's cup of tea, especially during Christmas time, but the movie's got a lot of heart and if you can give it a chance you might think it's worth your while. (and as an added bonus, just because this is arse_hat's thread: here's a song that plays in the movie as well.)
