    About the "rereading" quote, it was not Nabokov who said it, I think. I believe it was Martin Amis. Or was it Nabokov?

    • @GregHarradineComposer
      @GregHarradineComposer 2 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Martin Amis was a huge Nabokov fan, and no doubt said something similar, or perhaps quoted Nabokov. But it was the Nabokov quote I was thinking of, from his Lectures on Literature: “Curiously enough, one cannot read a book; one can only reread it. A good reader, a major reader, and active and creative reader is a rereader.” Incidentally, Martin Amis appreciated James Joyce too, but recognises that he is quite a different animal to Nabokov. Here is a wonderful few sentences from Amis where he compares Nabokov and Joyce: “If you go to Nabokov’s house, metaphorically speaking, you get his best chair, in front of his fire, with his best wine. If you go to James Joyce’s house, you come into this big drafty edifice, and there’s no one there. And then you find him tinkering around in some scullery. And he offers you two slabs of peat around a conger eel, and a glass of mead.”

    I agree... I'm really disappointed unfortunately 😢 and I'm a fan of Coldplays first three albums - some excellent Alternative Pop Rock on them with excellent Songwriting 😁 But for the past few Albums... i don't know - I loved "Coloratura", their behemoth of a track on their last album. But everything else feels like the same over and over again: Chris Martin and his vocals extremely present, while the other band members almost never get to shine, some interesting ideas but that stay small and don't go anywhere satisfying unfortunately and very few hooks or memorable moments musically I can relate to feeling emotionally touched hearing their music - they always had this "sparkling" almost magical sound that makes them unique and one of the better modern mainstream acts, because they can pull on the heartstrings, but for me "Moon Music" was quite boring, maybe it will change on a few more listens tho (although I kinda don't want to listen to it again). Also: for me it would be a solution to change their name to "Chris Martin's Coldplay" because I agree: they don't feel like a band anymore, more like Chris Martin's solo project

    As english is a second language to me, I struggle with the word plays of Ulysses. I could (have) read it in translation, but I feel it's not the same. Like it's untranslatable. My top 3 of authors: 1. Dante Alighieri 2. László Krasznahorkai 3. I can't decide: Hartmann von Aue or Alasdair Gray or Umberto Eco or Novalis or Péter Nádas or H.J.C. Grimmelshausen or Cormac McCarthy and many many more...

    • @GregHarradineComposer
      @GregHarradineComposer หลายเดือนก่อน

      I totally get that about Ulysses and translation. I’m a huge Krasznahorkai fan. Also love Dante but I feel, as you do with Ulysses, that I’m missing much reading Dante in English. I haven’t yet read Alasdair Gray but I have Lanark on my shelf waiting to be read! Love Eco too…

    • @csabrendeki
      @csabrendeki หลายเดือนก่อน

      @GregHarradineComposer I'll keep ip improving my English maybe one day Ulysses will open up zo me, I have it on the shelf. I have the luck to be able to read Krasznahorkai in the original, I quite think the musicality of his language is also untranslatable, but I'm really happy about his international success. I recommend Gray a lot, I didn't read everything yet, but Lanark, Poor Thing and his short stories are all great.

    Her third album, What the Truth Feels Like, is what I’d want more of from a mature Gwen. She’s still having fun and being quirky, but she’s was able to mix that in with more mature topics as well, and created a somber sound that still felt her own. This album just doesn’t have any personality. Swallow My Tears was catchy but safe, and nothing else on this album stuck. And I’m a huge Gwen/No Doubt fan!

    I just saw the " Billboard" top 10" songs vid and most of the artists sounded like a weird amalgam of yacht rock and disco. Not surprising as those styles are new to many people. New to some but those styles sound very dated to people my age. Not something I would listen to but it is intersting in a musical history context.

  • @sunsin1592
    @sunsin1592 หลายเดือนก่อน

    You apparently don't know what Yacht Rock is. This is most definitely not that. It's a collection of 10 insipid pseudo country songs about Blake Shelton. Sad that personal happiness has utterly sapped her creativity. Her last album and even the Christmas album, were fine. But this just goes too far.

    Gwen always came back to the seeds/plants/flowers as a metaphor for life. I liked the album, but I can tell it isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I feel like it's what she is into right now and good for her that she is not trying to be in high school anymore or revisiting her old stuff. It was so painfull to watch her slow clap jumping on the air with Swantee, that felt cynical and lame. I am a fan, always was, and I found this album very charming, idealisticly romantic, maybe naive, with some post trauma written all over it that if you went through a relationship with some abuse or gaslight, the words will hit different, as it did with me.
