The John Wayne

I’m currently totally in to Little Green Cars. I’m so completely convinced that they will provide the soundtrack of my 2013 summer.

I bet it’s going to be great. Sun or no sun.

And with a song called John Wayne, who can not love them. Allthough the actor John Wayne was right from a political standpoint, he was also fun and lovable kind of guy. That, and he didn’t have to go participate in the Vietnam war, because he was needed by big Hollywood studio bosses to make legendary cowboyfilms that made the boxoffice explode the first week. Lucky him.

John Wayne makes me think of cowboys and Isabel Marant makes me think of cowgirls.

I read a great piece about her in my new favorite magazine which is called ” The Gentle Woman ” (more about that later).

I’ll just leave you with Isabel now, and with Little Green Cars, band from Dublin formed in 2008. Blog and website of band to be found here.

Oh yeah, not only does the song build up musically towards bombastic middle pieces and tones down afterwards again.

Like the sea. What is better than the sea with calm and fierce waves?

The song’s lyrics are just sublime.

“You know it’s your neglect
is the reason that I’m so obsessed with you
And when I asked you your name you said John Wayne
And I guess it’s true
Coz then you shot me down
Doubled over and I hit the ground right in front of you
I guess in the Wild West
it’s ok to shoot the pest that’s annoying you”

Man, if I were in the Wild West, with Johny or not, I’d definitely would be wearing this.

or this

or maybe, I can wear it right here, since you’d have to be blind to not know that we’re still living in the wild west, and the survivest of the fittest is even more the case. I know I won’t be fitter with nice clothes, but I will LOOK fitter, and since people mostly judge a book by it’s cover.. well…
Lett’s seize the day and all buy Isabel Marant all the time! ( hahahahaha, I’m not kidding, if only it would be possible, that would be freakin awsome…)
