So I just watched a video that was Charli XCX at a record store selecting records.  This is what is great about the internet because sometimes you find stuff that so specifically melds with your taste you are sure it was made just for you.  If you know me, hell if you have read some of my ramblings, you probably know I have a lot of records.  I love getting records.  I love spending time in a record store.  I also happen to love Charli XCX so it was exciting.  Then the first album she grabs is a Monkees album, which you probably don’t know about me but was one of the major formative bands in my life.  When I was about 7 I was basically obsessed with the Beatles, the Beach Boys, and the Monkees.  I would say it very much is responsible for the fact that I like things with a much greater pop sensibility than a lot of my friends did.  And apparently the Monkees were a mainstay in Charli XCX’s household.  So it makes sense that I am a fan of hers. Obviously, also, probably proof that my attraction to her was written in the stars or something.  I mean, all this time i have been trying to describe the strange attraction I have for her, it’s different than with a lto of people, it’s intense.  I couldn’t put it in words.  Apparently it was the Monkees. I could have made a joke about those words being some strange lyric from like Last Train to Clarksville but you know, all the songs I could think of, none of the words fit.  Today I want to fuck Charli XCX.
