Oh yeah. We'd prefer to stay in watchin' and a-readin some fine pop-culture such as Bridget Jones Diary by Helen Fielding. But alas New Years eve is tonight and tis the season to be drunkity drunk drunk, and we will not make an exception this year. Happy Happy to everyone.
GW: ...and also I love women. I don't want to be a woman, I don't want to sleep with women, I just love the female body. So, and that's where it comes from. So when I see a nice juicy arse...
JR: MMMMmmm.
GW: I don't want to cover it up.
JR: nor me.
GW: with long... yeah, what would you like to do with it?
JR: smack it!
Got a parcel from Andrae; the CD "Darkroom" by Gaymen!!!! Fantastic! It's 5 different versions of the song Darkroom, for instance the "Dark Hole Mix" and the "Stevie Kerrs Clutching The Soap Remix" - brillant! Couldn't find a picture of the CD, which incidentally is decorated with a close-up of an arse - so took the record instead. The song's absolutely magnificent; starts out with a lot of hot groans (bit like the Queer as Folk, UK theme), then culminating with the sentence: "Get with your hands in my pants, and make me come while I dance".
Hey, so, we love Flight of the Conchords! Watched it for the first time last christmas, and bought the first season in the spring. I really like the songs and the characters; it feels like they're my friends, Bret, Jemaine and Mel - God, I love her and her tongue! Notice how cute and tender the guys are in the third picture -ahh, lovely! Can't wait for the second season to be broadcasted in Denmark!
"Les Chansons d'Amour", French musical-ish romantic drama by Christophe Honoré. I didn't quite understand it, since there were no subtitles, neither english nor french, BUT I've looked very much forward to seeing it, and the bits I understood were good, bit melo-dramatic at certain points though. However the songs are fantastic and very sweet and also ....LOUIS GARREL (The Dreamers, not as talented as he is beautiful) OMG,OMG,OMG ...and Louis Garrel in bed with another boy (OMFG,OMFG,OMFG). Incidentally: Ludivine Sagnier (DITTO,DITTO,DITTO), the most beautiful woman in the world, I think. (Gouttes d'eau sur pierres brûlantes)
When it's all christmas and stuff, songs that include the voice of Ronnie James Dio are even better than usual. (maybe one should try and avoid Rainbow, the tackiest band in the world, too tacky to be nice) We love him, and we love Black Sabbath.
Bargh. I can't really be bothered with Christmas (does my face look bovered?) But then i typed in "Christmas Hunk" on google and found the tanned christmas snack at the bottom. It's cold but I'm listening to Nina Hagen, so things are looking up. Check out the fabulous, yet slightly disgruntled Dame in her ever so christmassy gown - stunning.
I know, I know. It's like John Mayer for cheaters who still want to be all alternative and indie. However I like the lovely music by Get Cape. Wear cape. Fly, and lets face it, it's still a bit cleverer than Mayer.

The incredible shrinking man is really phenomenal.
Went to CPH: DOX yesterday to watch the notorious”Dirty Diaries”, a series of short pornographic films about different elements of female sexuality. I thought it was great. Produced by Mia Engberg and directed by several different people, mainly Swedish. My favorites are “Skin”, “Dildoman”, “On your back woman!” “Phone fuck” and “flasher girl on tour”, but they are all great.
Am watching Douglas Adams and BBC's 1981 adaption of Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. I feel that this wonderful sci-fi series is a highly significant piece of TV-art, much like early Doctor Who (and current Doctor Who for that matter, who doesn’t fancy David Tennant, eh). It should indeed be part of every child’s upbringing. I haven’t read the books yet, therefore I suck.
I am particularly fond of the depressed robot. But have yet to finish the entire series.

Gouttes d’eau sur pierres brûlantes is a very peculiar film. I ordered it a couple of weeks ago and hurried home to watch it. It is so far from what I’d expected, but I was not disappointed. The director is the fantastic Francois Ozon (8 Femmes, Une robe d’été, Le temps qui reste) and the actors in this tragic love story are Malik Zidi, Bernard Giraudeau, Anna Levine and Ozon’s favourite, the beautiful Ludivine Sagnier . What I love about Ozon is that his films have this slightly ironic or sarcastic feeling to them. I would go as far as calling them rather campy. The music and the clothes are often on the tacky side. It is very difficult to explain the sensation; instead one should really just watch the film.
I realized that I was crying my eyes out because of a lederhosen wearing hipster that listens to Schlagers, and I liked it. Also, the soundtrack features (apart from Tony Holiday’s fabulous “Tanze samba mit mir”) a very beautiful and moving song (god I’m such a wuss) “Träume” sung by Francoise Hardy.
This film is worth watching.
