You know what you came for.

This song inspires me on so many different levels. At first it's just another cute girl on youtube. But then with every strum of her guitar, she's playing with your expectations. And you begin to imagine. This is not a ordinary cute girl, this is a girl that has been hurt. And maybe her 'friend' Jasper has got something to do with it. You feel some anger and you're not sure if it's yours or hers. And then the song becomes a metaphor for all the rawness in the world. It's real. It's sad. But that's what makes it beautiful. It's about life, living and surviving. But in the end it also could be just about having fun. And she's just singing it out of pure ignorance. Just because she can and for no particular reason. Enjoy.

Me and my pants.



Mijn favoriete kledingstuk de spijkerbroek bestaat maar liefst 150 jaar en welke manier is beter om dit te vieren dan een schriftelijke ode te brengen aan mijn oude geluks jeans die ik een tijdje terug tot mijn grote spijt weg heb moeten doen. 

Me and my pants.


Me and my pants have been threw a lot. My pants started like any other regular pants. Without holes! It's funny how you can attach so much value to a regular pair of pants, but it was my favorite and therefore far from regular. It was a metaphor for all the great times I had in 'em. After a couple of years the usual wear and tear started to appear. Little did I know my pants was starting a trend and soon all pants would start having holes in them too. Even the most expensive pair of trousers would eventually follow. My pants went from old and worn to cool again. But after a while holes started appearing in places you really don't want to have any holes and so I knew me and my pants could no longer be a team. Damn, come to think of it this guy even witnessed me losing my virginity. You know, I never really asked him how he felt about that. O well, I guess it’s time to say goodbye. R.I.P. homie, you will be missed.

De kringloop van inspiratie.

De vicieuze cirkel van inspiratie. Inspiratie is een fenomeen die vergeleken kan worden met een prachtige zelfstandige vrouw. Inspiratie geeft niks om hoe hard je haar nodig hebt. Ze komt wanneer ze komt, omdat ze weet hoe mooi ze kan zijn. Het heeft ook geen zin om naar haar op zoek te gaan, maar tegelijkertijd weet je dat ze nooit ver weg zal zijn. Ze beperkt zich niet tot een enkele gedaante en geen mens zal haar volledig bezitten, maar hoe dan ook is ze de basis voor schoonheid.
