sugar highs


everyone has a movie or song or book that they can watch or listen to or read a hundred times and never, ever get over it. you always appreciate something new each time you re-visit. that's what empire records is like for me. there are too many great scenes {"sinead o' rebellion...shock me shock me with that deviant behaviour" or the epic scene where renee zellweger sings the final verse of sugar high}, an incredible soundtrack and a secret part of me that wishes i was cool enough to work there and rock out to rad music. but it's also about giving people a second chance when they don't deserve it and how people really come together to save something meaningful.

so i'm re-visiting tonight. chilling on my couch. eating ice cream x

  1. Awesome! I love that film - my best scene - when Romeo and Juliet by Dire Straits is on and the one guy dusts the ballerina's foot.

    If you are in the mood for a music movie with just that kind of feel may I recommend Almost Famous - what a film.

    Write more :-)
