I accept and I collect upon my body the memories of your devotion

Doing this early because it's been a bit of a rough morning and I need to focus on writing for the rest of the day.

It's really stormy here today. On days like this I prefer to listen to artists like Nina Simone, Al Green, and Billie Holiday. Antony and The Johnsons fit into this category as well. I like this song perhaps a bit too much considering that, while I've read other interpretations, I'm pretty well convinced that it's about domestic abuse. But the arrangement is so danceable and smile-inducing. I'm conflicted. I love Antony Hegarty's voice, and any song that has Lou Reed doing a spoken word intro is automatically awesome.

"Fistful of Love" by Antony and the Johnsons
