if my heart could sing

If my heart could sing, it might sound something like Pogo's music. Add the fact that I'm a girl who grew up watching Disney movies, plus some serious princess tendencies, how could I not love his stuff?

Eddie Vedder is Killing Me Softly

The new Ukulele Songs album is murderous. I listened to it back and forth. I have so many emotions...and too many memories. I guess that is part of the magic of music. Take me there, drop me off here, move me.

He does a cover of "Tonight You Belong To Me", originally written in 1926 but best performed in a scene from The Jerk. Bernadette Peters is adorable.

Toshiro Mifune

Oh my god, I love this fool on so many levels, it's bananas.

One of my favorite parts in this scene in particular is when he tears up the room. There are a few movies that have really great scenes where the actor/s get to just rip a room into pieces; from Citizen Kane to Zombieland, and of course, Yojimbo. I enjoy it for two reasons. One, I want to fuck a room up with everything I got. I think there is something therapeutic about it. Two, I am impressed by the actor's skills to get it right the first time. It's not like they have several rooms set up and get take after take. They get one shot.

laughing and singing in the rain

It's the middle of my first semester at school in like a million years. I am beyond tired.
Musicals. My secret happy place.
