Alone

This blog entry will be total stream of consciousness blather (with a semi-humorous tone).

The Strokes have a song called Alone, Together - pretty similar to this week's and next week's blog entry titles!!! Seems like copyright infringement to me!!!

Being alone means being by oneself; it means being without company. Sometimes it can be fun to be alone if you have fun being alone. Other times, it is useful to be around others.

I know a song that has a lyric "have you ever been alone in a crowded room?" called Dark Blue. I think that song is by Jack's Mannequin, but I can't quite remember. It's a pretty good song, but it is alone in that it's the only Jack's Mannequin song I've really listened to very much. That actually isn't true; I've listened to a few others I think. It's only nearly alone then. I wrote a blog entry that had a little about aloneness earlier this week, but it was a bit more serious than I want to be with this entry, so I'll leave them separate (or alone!!!)

Thinking about the two songs I've mentioned so far in this blog entry, I decided to search my itunes library for the word "alone" and it made a pretty interesting little playlist. I think I'll go listen to those songs now.
