Ironside :: Television Review

lyriquediscorde

Ironside (2013) Wednesdays on NBC Pilot, October 2, 2013 Preview Clip I am somewhat new being a fan of procedural television. I have always been more of a drama, dramady, sci-fi/fantasy and young adult television fan – heavy on the drama, writing and character development. Procedurals were a late night filler, or something to watch while home sick, and consisted typically of Law and Order re-runs. Then I met my husband and he slowly, but surely, got me hooked on the genre, and I added shows like Criminal Minds, Elementary, and Castle to my list of favorite shows, as well … Continue reading Ironside :: Television Review

New Music Round-Up :: Week of 9/16

Long Way Down :: Tom Odell Three-Sentence Review: Tom is being compared to such a wide array of different musicians, from Adele to Elton John, from Nick Drake to Bastille, from Bob Dylan to Arcade Fire to Ryan Adams – why are all these comparisons necessary?

Still Running :: SOTD

lyriquediscorde

“You’ve got to cry without weeping, talk without speaking, scream without raising your voice.” I remember the first time I heard this song and how it made me feel. My chest tightened up and the pending threat of tears stung my eyes, and I knew right then that I would probably love this song forever. I don’t think I immediately linked the song to heroin abuse, but instead recognized the feeling of helplessness, of desperation, and of wanting to scream and run from something so bad that you were instead left silent. Certain kinds of pain bring on a silence … Continue reading Still Running :: SOTD
