GLEE - "Forget You" Full Performance feat. Gwyneth Paltrow!


So I've never watched Glee but I'm a huge Gwyneth Paltrow fan. Saw her sing on stage during the Grammys and dug up this video on Youtube. I'm amazed at how talented she is ... if anything her dancing is even more awesome than her singing ... she's 38!!!

What can one do in Bangalore? thank God for Television. Or maybe until I turn it off I won't have a clue about what to do. My hyperactive reading phase tapered off in Oct/Nov. Though I renewed my library membership I found myself less and less inclined to read. It wasn't a loss of appetite, but merely the weight of several other things that weighed in to overwhelm that appetite and replace it with a kind of phlegmatic suspension.

Most people who I know know how much I love LOTR. I'm ploughing my way through pages 600-700 and these are the parts with loads of dialogue from Smeagol or Gollum. Just brilliantly written. No idea what I'd read afer that. Read most of Hamlet on 2 flights but it fatigued me after a while. I'm convinced it helped increase my IQ though ... reading those difficult passages and thinking about what the antiquated english means certainly can do wonders into firing a few more new neurons.

As far as music is concerned I gave Comfortably Numb a shot and it sounds so beautiful on my new guitar. Haven't yet found the inclination to record it though.
