Another week, in brief:
Jennifer Hudson & Beyoncé were by far my favorite people at the Academy Awards last Sunday.
I'm kind of late to it (is that possible, considering it's not yet released?), but I really love the new Arcade Fire album. It's like classic Echo & the Bunnymen (or a more self-indulgent Go-Betweens), and god knows that's good enough for me. The only downside is that I can no longer say that I'm just not into the Arcade Fire's Big Important Rock; but that's okay, because frankly, they're really too fucking good at it for me to mind.
I haven't stopped playing Siobhan Donaghy's "12 Bar Acid Blues" since I first heard it. It's just so good! And despite itself, it makes me want to go on vacation.
[this is good]
