Well...Not true.
I woke up and went through today with one thought on my mind.
Shit..not true again.
I woke up and went through today with two thoughts on my mind.
In no particular order, one was talking to a very special someone, and the other would be to get Schuyler (pronounced Sky-lar) Fisk's album "The Good Stuff"
So I got home, and pretty much at the same time, both thoughts were realized.
I had just bought the album when the crush IM'd me.
Happiness, thy name if Justin.
I'm currently talking to her as I write this. It's heavenly, she is one of the main reasons I'm back into writing. Hoping soon to really start cracking away at my steampunk-esque novella because of her and my cousin Dall.
I love it. I love this feeling, it's so amazing! Heather has been there the past couple days, and she never fails to make me smile. Honestly, I just can't say enough about her. Sure, we used to know each other from long ago, but we rarely talked...and with due reason, because I was an absurd goofball. I'm glad we're talking again. Scratch that, I'm ecstatic we're talking!
Honestly, smiling like 200 times more lately.
So we're going to hop from real life crushes to my old celebrity crush.
For those rare few with the priveledge of knowing this fact, congrats. For those that don't, may I now present to you Ms. Schuyler Fisk!

I watched Orange County (the movie..not that God Awful show.) and was like "Who is that fetching red headed lass?" Well after searching I found Schuyler. More importantly, I found Schuyler's music.
I've been awaiting this album for a long time, so let's get right into it.
So where do I start?
I was glad to see a few well-known tracks like "From Where I'm Standing," "Fall Apart Today," "The Good Stuff," and "Hello." Even more than that, I was so excited to see new songs, such an excitement that I debated how the entire album would sound.
Some people may say "Well that's dumb..Why would you doubt an album?"
In which I'd reply "Well, what's better than being proving wrong, and still winning?"
Maybe it doesn't make sense to you, but it does to me.
Needless to say, Schuyler proved my uncertainties wrong flawlessly.
As for the well-known songs I mentioned earlier, the redone versions are ten times as amazing.
Newer songs (to me) such as "Afterglow", "You're Only Lonely", and "Cold Heart" are simply gems!
I feel like I really need to mention "You're Only Lonely"..It's got a "Time of The Season" beat to it, and maybe that's what draws me in so much. The vocals and lyrics are, to me, amazing. Definitely a track that stands out amongst some already amazing songs.
My favorite song? Well..10 to one, it's "Miss You." Schuyler has such a blusey-KT Tunstall vibe about her on this song. The lyrics are cheeky and sarcastic, which I love. I couldn't say enough good things about this song. I've a feeling that this song may be looped all night.
So as for my general rating, I give "The Good Stuff" a sheer 10 out of 10.
Honestly, I may be biased, but it's my first review and I simply adore Schuyler.
I promise, next time I review, I'll do a better job. Pinky Swear!
Well, I'm out all.
Later,
Justin
