David Bowie-Lodger
Lodger is one of those albums that you've had a copy of a million times, but never when you really want to hear it. And then when you are in the mood, you're really really in the mood. But it can't be found anywhere and you spend hours scouring the internet for even a 192kbps version of it. Cursing the internet gods the entire time for making it so easy to find some obscure Tanzanian fuzz rock album that's been out of print since it was first pressed while making it virtually impossible to find something relatively well-known by one of the western world's most iconic pop songwriters. Until you eventually get so desperate that you start to struggle with Itunes trying to get it to recognize your goddamned appleid and feeling really defeated the whole time. And finally at the last second when you're about to say fuckitall and give up hope a megaupload search swoops in to save the day. It's that kind of album. And it's totally worth it. Because it's one of his best.
also, I've officially landed the permanent AIC position I wanted (which is to tide me over till I get back to PDX, so don't get your panties in a bunch, west coast friends)!! yeah!! Happy Birthday to ME!!!
