i didn't know that jeeves had retired.

either i've become a dirty conformist in having google as my sole search engine, or i've been living under a rock for the past five years. but upon doing a little research for my assignment this evening, i discovered that Jeeves is no longer the face of popular search engine, now known as ask.com
apparently, Jeeves has been enjoying retirement since 2006. the things you discover when you're banned from facebook. i must say, the mind reels. (cheeky little Audrey quote there for you)

anyway, it seems that the creativity bug always bites when i don't need it to - to be specific, in the midst of assignment time. so here's what i've got today...

ps. ive been listening to gotye, tom milek, boy and bear, benjamin francis leftwich, and mindy gledhill. and of course, always, the ingenious ingenue, Norah Jones.


so yeah.
Destination in my head
Shoes on my feet
Who needs a map
When you follow your own
Beat?
Beating heart
my only company
I never used to walk alone
It was you who decided
You didn’t need
Me
Turned my back
You showed me how
Consistent pulse
Is all I rely on
Now
Sun on my back
Rocks in my shoes
Cicada calls for jazz
Birdsong for the blues
Life is a game
Of tic, tac, toe
One person claims it all
And there’s nowhere for the other
To go

try to imagine a kind of raw, acoustic plucking thing going on with the music. very guttural but "considerably less angsty" than rock, as apparently Indie Pop is defined according to wikipedia. cheers.
