    Whenever he does an interview I understand why I feel a little out of place sometimes (often) people are so fast and boxy in there conversations especially mainstream radio presenters

    • @kyrirhcp
      @kyrirhcp Год назад

      |It always feels like he's coming from another place, a point higher or beyond, (came in through the wall looking like a simple being, should have known better?), and his interviews never seem to be very good, from the perspective of the interviewer, because they don't seem to ask the right questions. I know he likes being private, and that gives me so much towards his music (i get to interpret it differently depending on the phase in my life, and enjoy each song multiple times over). But like you said, he's boxed in, maybe that's why he's so fluent in his music, because he's unchained, bare, honest.

      @@FRsnakepit I did think about that. Since it's an open tuning the basic chords can probably be tapped with 2 or 3 fingers. Still requires some coordination!

    Well well how sadly and epically exciting... Being locked again by my mother... in my dad's room... with his precious vinyls collection surrounding me... Magic for sure... Frank Zappa being the head Chef in the room...
    And Magestic indeed to keep Faith and still work on destroying all the seriously annoying bad spirits around France and this Alsace Countryside ... 🙄
    Anyway lucky I figured to be on some starting blocks again... And not dead yet...
    To Greece this time... Hopefully it will work better than in Costa Rica... And my King will return for sure... So pissed off to feel like this deep loosing bitch in front of my brother...
    Anyway... I will still miss Ben's show in Europe and concerts... Again...
    But that's fine. I will attend one in " true and live form" in the coming future, and be part of the family on stage for sure 👸👑💫🍀🦋💜🙏🏼.
    I've been raised with a lot of Peter Gabriel and all the Realworld crew in my ears... and as an Angie Fox Muse I was almost able to get on the stage on the Zenith of Strasbourg Stage last 13th December 2014 with Peter...
    So yeah even if I'm getting more closer to oldness than to Neil Young... I keep the Faith high being soon reunited on a beautiful beach with my King ... 🔥🧝🏽‍♀️
