Black Lab and Christmas Tunes..

I've been writing while listening to Black Lab tonight. At the moment, the voice of Paul Durham is just what I need. His voice is...incredible. I didn't even know about these guys until the little 'The Shield' commercial during which they are singing 'This Night.' That song with Paul's voice really helps me write. I have the album on my computer, but that song is the one I want tonight.

I also love Kate Havnevik's Grace Master, Damien Rice, and even though I hate the name, the Butthole Surfer's Pepper has helped me lately! Other ones include Radiohead's Creep, which helps me when I'm stuck, as does the Crash Test Dummies. And though you might laugh, I get through a lot of scenes with various artists, generally female, singing Silent Night, Oh Holy Night, and other music one would generally only listen to at Christmastime! (I want to marry Sean Bean and am obsessed with pumpkin seeds, just to mention a couple of other quirky traits of mine) Thank goodness for Pandora :)
And Allison Crowe and Haley Westenra!

So much music...and all of it helps with different scenes in different books. I love writing; but without all this great music, it might be just a little less pleasurable.

I'm looking forward to watching 28 Weeks Later on DVD. I generally always wait for the DVD to come out. There are few good movies to watch, coming out soon:)

Well, though I was planning on typing more, I must go and do other important things, thus this will be cut short once again. At least I got to talk about Black Lab, and they are well worth talking about.

Goodnight, all:)

Black Lab is wonderful, in my opinion. The lead singer has a voice that'll melt you:)
Listen to This Night, for sure.
