In the wrong hands, the saxophone is an instrument of pure evil.
For some reasn I really loved this shirt. "Genesis," and a big gas pump. This shirt is a metaphor. Not sure what for.
Related to this, translated Phil Collins songs are huge here, sometimes with a techno beat, sometimes with extra saxophone solos. Hurl hurl hurl.
Also, I went to a place the other night to study with a friend, and there was a band that played what I recognized to be Coldplay songs, including saxophone lead-ins and solos.
Saxophoned Coldplay songs sound a lot like Disintegration-era Cure, and at some point before I realized what it was, I got sort of excited because I thought it was a weird version of "Plainsong."
It was not.
I'm working on the subjunctive this week.
