give me THE CURE

Two phenomenal covers of The Cure, both filmed in interesting settings.

Erlend Oye of The Kings of Convenience singing "Boys Don't Cry" in the park:



PS22 Choir singing "Pictures of You" at school:

No, wait. This is what I want.

Motorcycles are a huge temptation for me. I avoid them because I don't think they will be as fun as scooters. They're just so much more serious. Yet, in getting older I don't like vintage stuff as much, and I just can't stomach a new scooter. They are just so much different than the old scooters I love.

But motorcycvles haven't really changed. They are still the same size, shape, and whatnot.

This is one I really like: Moto Guzzi V7 Clubman

This is what I want: BMW 2002

I am in love with BMW 2002s. I want one in a bad way, and every day I consider putting the Fun Bus up for sale and getting one of these little charming boxy cars. Particularly, I would like an orange one. I rode in one over the summer, a lovely dark blue 1971 round-taillight model, and I loved it. In the few miles I rode, I got the feeling the car was much lighter and tossable than a comparable Volvo. I loved the aircraft-style seatbelt latches. The seats were perfect vintage car simplicity and cuteness. The small details make it really great. I truly wish cars like this were still made.
