Adagio for Strings has me in the mellowest of moods. Has anyone ever seen "Platoon"? There is a REALLY stirring scene where this piece is playing (for those of you who don't know, it's a Vietnam movie, so it's pretty moving in itself...). Anyway - I see that particular scene everytime I listen to it. I love it. ::chills:: I have so much new music this week! I'm so excited! I have accumulated enough (since the beginning of summer) to create five new CDs.
The first one is mostly classical. It has Arias, Beethoven, Appalachian Journey, and some band and choral pieces.
The second one is a lot of recent stuff. Finger Eleven, Coldplay, Alanis Morissette, Copeland, No Doubt, Live, Collective Soul, and ::gasp:: the two Britney Spears songs that I actually like! Hehe.
The third is easy listening. "What a Wonderful World", "As Time Goes By", Sarah McLachlan, "Fields of Gold", some more classical stuff, and a little Jackson 5.
The fourth is older rock. Blood Sweat and Tear, Boston, Chicago, Springsteen, a little Pat Benatar, U2, "Rio", "Here Comes the Rain Again", "Every Rose Has it's Thorn", etc.
The last is simply the "Vanity Fair Soundtrack".
I need to get a new CD case. The one I have holds 98, I believe, and I've been stacking discs on top of each other for a year. That's really sad. I love my music, but I'm disgusted by the amount of money I have spent over the years. Granted, a good handful of my CDs were burned, but it's still a CRAZY sum to spend on entertainment. ...especially when some people can barely afford food. ::feels bad now:: :(
Anywho. I'm going to help the history club with their cemetary tour tonight. That should be fun. When I get back, I plan on watching a movie or something...just chilling. Thelonius is playing at Amici's tomorrow night, and I really want to go see them. I'm also thinking of going to see "Ray" during the day tomorrow. Ahh...but we can't forget the ADCH project that is looming ever closer. ::hums Jaws theme:: I'm not really sure why I'm rambling so much.
This entry has absolutely NO purpose...
