Vidular, musilar, mish-mash of love, war, and drugs

Just to do something new, I'll write this post in sectional time frames. I believe this is how my brain works. But I'll be doing something a bit refreshing as well and I'll write a bit about a musical; its not quite an album, and nothing of a soundtrack (although I'd like you to focus on the soundtrack of this movie I have in mind...


A beautiful, radical, lovely, remixed, remastered, relived, realized piece of work put together by Julie Taylor, but that isn't where the magic lies... Don't worry, you won't have to go far for the magic to catch you.

This is what pulled me in passed the waves of music; this being the response he gave lady Lucy when she accused him of doing nothing for the on going Vietnam war that shadowed the entire movie. The way everyone speaks, the way everyone interacts, its everything a wanna-be dreamer would need to feel as if he had any creativity in the first place. The imagery around this universe this movie has created kills any idea anyone could have added least be you an artist yourself. Truly a movie to leave you breathless because you have no idea in which way it would be leading you. Its a journey in itself, and in itself lies an innocence; here lies the imagination.

Lets get down and dirty with the music that meshes with everything within this movie... at least I will later, for now I sleep. Goodnight reader.
