Evelyn and Evelyn.. amongst other..

First of all.
I hated not writing for a few days,
BUT i have been rather busy. And rather un-inspired.

However, rediscovering my love for certain musical artist, as well as discovering a few new ones. Has given me ground to write about..

Evelyn and Evelyn.. By the way Amanda Palmer talks of them on her tweets, blog etc. They seem like real twin sisters joined at the hip. The story behind them is so unreal, you dont even consider doubting it.
And then i realized, what the fuck? They are fake.
BUT STILL BRILLIANT.
So i google a bit, read a few blogs and some comment. And people seem a bit upset?
Why the hell? They calling it Ableism and what not. Amanda Palmer is an artist folks. She shocks and awes us, this is why we love her. And the simplicity of her art in my opinion in creating these twins, were brilliant? To me it says, we were all so awed and inspired by the idea of her helping these two physically disabled sad girls get a chance, that we thought it was brilliant. If they were not physically disabled we would not have reacted in the same way? We would not have thought the act so amazing.
But we did. We thought it was amazing how Amanda carelessly gave these two girls a chance at a musical career was inspiring and amazing. The only reason we reacted like this though, was because they were physically disabled.

If it was just a person with no physical or mental disability, we would have thought awe, how nice of her. And other things like this..

The creation of Evelyn and Evelyn to me says, fuck this. We are all the same. We root for the underdog cause we think its right. Not because we actually care. We root for the disabled twins getting their chance, because they are disabled. Not because we thought they were talented. Because many people already went on gloating sprees saying how great it is that girls with such sad lives get chances etc etc.
If they were not "physically disabled" we would have not been that supportive until we heard music.

So in my personal opinion, calling Amanda Palmer a Ableist because of the evelyn evelyn project is both silly and not thought through.

Next, i also found a strange love for Swedish singer, Lykke Li.
For some reason her soft air-like voice and amusing lyrics just caught my attention.

Anyway,
The weather today was, well. Confusing. yet, lovely.

Cant wait for the weekend.

Love.
Smile.
