The Hours
But what does it mean?
What does it mean to regret
when you have no choice?
It was death.
I chose life.
Apparently…
… it is something to do with the pressure of countless unknown dimensions (beyond the regular three) and string vibrations that make the conditions possible for us to be here.
We are the result of those conditions.
Adam Yauch [1964 - 2012]

via animalnewyork “Adam Yauch, founding and gruffest-voiced member of the Beastie Boys is dead at 47. Yauch had being going through cancer treatment since 2009 after being diagnosed with a tumor in his salivary gland and did not attend the Beastie Boys’ induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in April, and yet, the news is blind-siding. Aside from his iconic influence on hip hop, Yauch had also co-organized the Tibetan Freedom Concerts in the ’90s and in 2002, launched one of the last and best independent film production/distribution companies, Oscilloscope Laboratories.”
[For me] this is THE quintessential Beastie track because it was the one I feel in love to. They’d been out for a serious minute but it wasn’t until 1995 - the year that made me musically - that I sat up & paid serious attention. Watching Beavis & Butthead on vintage-style MTV, this dropped and blew the ceiling and my inferior mind (& to think I still have the VHS.) You know it’s love when you remember where you were the first time you heard it…
Much love to you Beastie Boys (those here & gone).
“…I have this strange feeling that I’m not myself anymore. It’s hard to put into words, but I guess it’s like I was fast asleep, and someone came, disassembled me, and hurriedly put me back together again. That sort of feeling.”
