Don’t bother just to be better than your contemporaries or predecessors. Try to be better than yourself.

Thought these were normal paintings, did you? Think again. These portraits were done on Facebook’s Graffiti application! Oh, you can even view the replays for each piece!
This is so amazing

In a 1981 interview, Ono revealed, “I used to say to [Lennon], ‘I think you’re a closet fag, you know.’ Because after we started to live together, John would say to me, ‘Do you know why I like you? Because you look like a bloke in drag.’”

[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]John Lennon / Working Class Hero
R.I.P.
As soon as your born they make you feel small,
By giving you no time instead of it all,
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all,
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.
They hurt you at home and they hit you at school,
They hate you if you’re clever and they despise a fool,
Till you’re so fucking crazy you can’t follow their rules,
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.
When they’ve tortured and scared you for twenty odd years,
Then they expect you to pick a career,
When you can’t really function you’re so full of fear,
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.
Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV,
And you think you’re so clever and classless and free,
But you’re still fucking peasents as far as I can see,
A working class hero is something to be,
A working class hero is something to be.
There’s room at the top they are telling you still,
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill,
If you want to be like the folks on the hill,
A working class hero is something to be.
A working class hero is something to be.
If you want to be a hero well just follow me,
If you want to be a hero well just follow me. -

[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]State Street Residential- Death Cab For Cutie
I’ve been delving into a lot of old Death Cab recently. At first I was put off because of the difficulty in making out the lyrics I so loved from my beloved Death Cab. But looking them up, they are still as amazing as ever. Did I ever doubt them?
Holding fast until
The rent checks wear thin
Because it hasn’t sunk in so far
When it’s a drab routine
The dust starts building
Until it’s hard to come clean
Then my months stack up
To an addictive crush
As if the drink weren’t enough
A stagger cannot compete
There’s no charm in being
A residential state street
And if I was sober
Would I kill caution and stay over?
And if I was sober
Would I rip hearts apart like paper?
I wish you could know
Better than you show
With parted lips pointing down
That the whiskey soothes
More than you could ever do
And if I was sober
Would I kill caution and stay over?
And if I was sober
Would I rip hearts apart like paper?
What a difference it’d make
And what a different it’d make
And if I was sober
Would I kill caution and stay over?
And if I was sober
Would I rip hearts apart like paper?
What a difference it’d make
And what a different it’d make -
