More music: So I finally bought The Magnetic Fields' 69 Love Songs [at Amazon.co.uk], after seeing the whole thing live just over a year ago. And I'm stunned because after an incredibly stressful day at work, and despite this being on CD and not live, Stephin Merritt's voice is still incredible, the tones in the music still carry me away, it still makes me laugh, and I'm feeling that little rush that comes with great music roughly every 4 seconds. I've been timing it. Aaah. Happiness.
