Song Review: Keith Richards - “I’m Waiting for the Man”
If there’s anyone unkempt and druggy enough to convincingly cover “I’m Waiting for the Man,” it’s Keith Richards.
And so it shall be.
The Rolling Stone re-recorded the Velvet Underground & Nico track for the forthcoming various-artists collection The Power of the Heart: A Tribute to Lou Reed. It’s also the lead single.
With a short a capella intro and higher fidelity than the original, Richards nevertheless stays close to Reed and the Velvet’s arrangement while transforming it into the quintessential Keef Riff Hard cut. Not small feat, that, but Richards knows of which he sings on “I’m Waiting for the Man.”
“To me, Lou stood out,” Richards said in a statement. “The real deal! Something important to American music and to all music. I miss him and his dog.”
Arriving on 4/20 - natch - The Power of the Heart includes contributions from a motley array of admirers including Joan Jett & the Blackhearts, Rufus Wainwright, Lucinda Williams, Maxim Ludwig and Angel Olsen, Rickie Lee Jones, Mary Gauthier, Bobby Rush, Automatic, the Afghan Whigs, Rosanne Cash and Brogan Bentley.
Grade card: Keith Richards - “I’m Waiting for the Man” - B+

cozy horror is when I make hot cocoa and get snuggled up in a soft blanky while it's raining gently outside and I turn on the TV and watch the most unhinged atrocities even conceived on film

Crochet Update
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I'm making the fluffiest afghan in existence.
Tumblr media
This is what the pattern's image is lol. I'm working on the middle rn. It is so fucking fluffy.
Also I don't think I showed the finished scarf I was making 🤔
Tumblr media
This lil guy. Yes. It was very good practice.
Tumblr media
I've also been working on a double crochet scarf (?) with yarn thats so small it might as well be thread hfkshfkd. It has a rly nice texture & I'm enjoying the pattern that's showing on it. Nice and crisp. Very different from the undefined fluffiness of the WIP afghan lol, though they both use double stich crochet. The afghan is turning the double stitches into V stitches though, so there are holes in it. Such is the way of an afghan, I suppose 🤔
Everywhere I've seen has cautioned against using dark yarn as a beginner bc it's hard to see your stitches with it. And Yeah, it sure fuckin is, but I've been getting by through sheer stubbornness bc I Love the color black. So I am Making black things. As is my RIGHT!!!!

#ive spent the entire day doing volunteer legal help for refugees who cant afford lawyers#and theres something so INSANELY fucking alienating#about spending hours writing an appeal for a gay man whos asylum claim got denied#BC HE DIDNT CONVINCE THE ASYLUM AGENCY THAT HE SPENT SUFFICIENT TIME AND EFFORT TRYING TO LIVE AS A GAY MAN IN IRAQ#(from his very asylum hearing on he described his homosexuality being discovered#by his family member and how he could flee the house in the time it took his father to get his shotgun#and the physical violence he suffered from another family member#and how one of his uncles took ~pity on him bc he was only 18#and gave him money to leave the country#under the condition that he would never return or contact the family again)#and seeing all these dehumanising and heartbreaking things in his file#including super out of line questions etc#and then go out and see the buses and trams of public transport all have these like cute rainbow flags#like i cant imagine how it must feel like for him#(or all the other lgbt afghans iraqis ugandans etc that i know)#but it literally makes my fucking blood boil#like actually one of the biggest arguments that get used against lgbt iraqis#(and other non-western lgbt ppl)#is the argument that lgbt rights are just a ~western degeneracy#and then these people come here#(the ones that manage and don't die either in their home countries or on the way)#and then they realise that yeah we're all so proud of our lgbt rights#its not just legal - it's also an advertising gimmick and a state sponsored party#except for people like them#we're completely comfortable sending them back to their deaths#and like his chances for appeal are actually quite good#but it's literally down to volunteers to even write that#and there are SO MANY cases like that
