...will happen. Yep, two days ago I was faced with the horrific fact that my dear, sweet Macie had died. And in his death he took with him everything I had worked on and had forgot to save elsewhere, as well as a massive library of fonts, some handy programs and about 20G's of life-saving music. I was devistated. Crushed. Heartbroken. Angry. My sweet, sweet Macie... it really hurt when you left like that. So I went to the Apple Store and got myself a new hard drive. It's not the same of course. I still cry myself to sleep. But I'll be alright. One day I will be alright. I hope you're free and happy, wherever you are, Macie. Rest in peace.
I got really excited when I heard Sia was releasing a new album. Expected awesome awesome greatness. But a few weeks later I heard the new album "We Are Born" at a party and all of a sudden it felt like the party should be filled with baloons and cake and kids drawing butterflies with crayons on the wall. It's ridiculous! I really wanted to like this album. I mean, I'm not against the upbeat change from her previous melancholic pieces. I think it's good that the girl is happy, because she's a very fun-loving person with the energy to carry some dancable tunes. But it's just not right. It doesn't fit. It's like she's high on mushrooms or something and party all night long with the smurphs. There's no depth at all. Just high pitched noise polluted in autotune. I think I know what she's trying to do, she's trying to be hip with the indie peeps, slapping some bass, grooving away with some killer beats. Because that's what people want these days. People want music that has computer skills and attitude. That's how you get played in stores like Urban Outfitters and General Pants. Sadly enough, Sia is more like New Look or Cotton On; the cheaper version, the less daring alternative. I guess that's what happens when you realise that you're great and can work with whoever you want - you just try to make yourself greater than great and end up being something you're not. I'm sorry Sia, but this is not awesome.
