I want pretty things.


 I just want pretty things and that is in no way a stereotypical thing for a gay man... okay yes it is. I love a pretty song, it's one of my favorite things, it can be happy or sad. This is "Good for me", a song about falling in love, something the other day reminded me of those feelings and I enjoyed briefly reliving them. You won't know this band or song. The band is Above and Beyond, the singer is Zoe Johnston, I like her unassuming nature, like she could be an English teacher or your bank manager, until she starts to sing. I think it's a pretty song.

  1. That song is okay, but wouldn't you rather be listening to Mariah Carey? She has a Christmas classic you might enjoy.

  2. It's rare for me to listen to female vocalists... was the song any good? Rather than something pretty, I like things with substance... thighs of steel are nice, too.

  3. No. Too reedy for my particular taste. I like a full throated voice with a little meat to it. I like pretty in men's voices, though, but not reedy. Pretty seems to bore me to tears or naps. Of course, pretty can come in different forms.

  6. She has quite a haunting voice. The song is, as you say, very pretty, regardless of what Lurker says.

  7. Thanks for posting that video. I have never heard that song before. I enjoyed listening to it with all of the different instruments and the background vocalists.
