Warehouse Factories.

The Other Day when I was walking home I saw this group of tribal dancers performing a ceremony nearby. These dancers peaked my interest and I decided to stay and take a look. The dancers all wore beach attire as if this was florida or some shit. I'm like yo it's fucking freezing out here what the fuck is ya'll doin? They ignored my calls and continued with the task at hand. One by one they flowed around in a big human chain looking like a giant awkward humanipede (human plus centipede) rather than the term human centipede which means something entirely different and opposite of what I mean. Oh shit, I've gotten off track again. The dancers broke up the chain and began buzzing around on their own like moths near a flame. The fire seemed to grow bigger and brighter until finally I jumped over the fence with a can of gas I had acquired from a nearby gas station. Upon reaching the fire I poured gas everywhere and burned the dance floor down. Once everyone was gone I began to perform my own dance. Just me and my bag of bones under the stars with smoke rising out of the ground. I danced and jumped with great delight until the wee hours of the morn. It was then that the tribal dancers came back with a bunch of broken bottles and threw many shards of glass at me without my consent. I ran away and managed to spend the night in a abandoned warehouse factory. And yes I mean a factory where they make outhouses. Blogvember Continues. 

Higher Ground

I recently decided that I much prefer the Red Hot Chili Peppers rendition of "Higher Ground" to the original version performed by Mr. Stevey Wonder. Something about the bass and drums really does it for me. Stevey's version is very very good but I am gonna have to stick with The Chili Peppers. The lyrics of the song are so uplifting but I don't have them memorized like I do with most songs I like, with this one I prefer to just hum along with the melody and imitate the vowel sounds. As I mentioned previously in a post called "Music Addiction" there is a cycle of musical addiction that I experience after discovering or rediscovering a good song. The song seems to have taken over the last two days so far. I am playing on YouTube repeatedly and jamming out excessively. "Higher Ground" is used a lot in movies as a inspirational soundtrack device. In "The Pursuit of Happyness" starring Will Smith the Stevey Wonder version is used and works well. The Red Hot Chili Pepper's version of "Higher Ground" is used to great effect in the responsibility montage in the Jason Bateman, Ryan Reynolds vehicle "The Change Up." I have decided that if you put this song on and just sit at a computer typing, it makes you look really productive. It sure as hell feels productive to me. In closing I am gearing up to work at the 2013 Chicago Auto Show where I will likely be standing for most of the day listening to this song all day in full mental clarity. Bloggers, Keep On Blogging!
