I realize that I'm rather late to the party, but I saw mention of music and...well, I love music.
You may have heard these songs before. They're favorites of mine by one of my favorite artists ever. The translation for the first one isn't as accurate as I'd prefer, but it gets the point across well enough. The story behind the second one is true, and it's great translation, in my opinion. (The story behind the song is rather bittersweet, though.)
"Pink Spider" got me through college. "Misery" just recently got me out of an 18 month long depression. His former band is touring the US now, so his music's been on my mind. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
Divine!
