mind dust

I'm very passionate about the things I believe in. I have a lot on my mind and most of it needs to be projected. walking in the streets of cities and absorbing the knowledge and history around me, reading, creating, listening to/playing music are the things I do best.

The way he listens to music is one of the most endearing and sweet things I’ve ever seen. He takes off his shoes, sets them down and gets comfortable. He kneels or sits in front of the record player, lifts the cover, reverently chooses a record, puts it on, closes the cover and just listens, start to finish. Whenever I go to see him and we listen to music like that, I register in myself how much better it feels than other ways of listening, which are like rushing to eat a meal because you’re super-hungry. You need to eat, just like you need to listen to music, but it never feels good if you do it like that. So I am trying to set my life up in a way where I don’t have to listen to music anyway other than putting on a record and sitting and listening.

Joanna Newsom describing the way Bill Callahan listens to music.

This is exactly the way I see it. When my true love finds me, whoever he is, he must need music this badly.
