Hello. I am e.n.d. Once upon a time I came from Minnesota. But then I moved everywhere.

Curiosity didn't kill the cat. Complacency did.

 

Licensing in Germany means I see (and thus, share) some shit quality videos. 

But that doesn’t take away from the fact that this was a favorite of mine over sixteen years ago. I remember when I first saw it.

I loved the colors. I started wearing a lot of colors that summer.

I remember recording the video on a blank VHS tape from MTV and watching it over and over. And at night, I’d ride in the car of my best friend, Kari, and we’d play The Bends cassette tape all night long after we went skateboarding. She got her driver’s license a year before I did. A driver’s license in the Midwest, United States, meant freedom. So together, we drove around free. And every time we popped the tape in, we’d fast forward to play Fake Plastic Trees first and drive fast.

And yes, that’s right, I used to skateboard.

This was my entire summer of 1995.

My worlds colliding in New York.
Golden people like these… are golden.

Murs is playing in Berlin this week. Pumped. 

“You could get a job even if you got a felony.
Check out my melody, let’s live in harmony.
We’re in this together, no man has a economy.”

I’m going home to Minnesota today!

Here’s one of my favorite tracks from the man my Mom went to high school with:

All seven and we’ll watch them fall
They stand in the way of love
And we will smoke them all
With an intellect and a savoir-faire
No one in the whole universe
Will ever compare.
I am yours now and you are mine
And together we’ll love through
All space and time, so don’t cry
One day all seven will die.
