I would like to show you the album(s) and book(s) that I like most and changed my life in a way.As I wrote later,and people who know me know very well,I´m really fond of music and also literature,but I have to admit that I know more about music than books.I always like to shared with other people the things that I like;i do this as a way to reveal the way I am and also to get them understand me better.talking about books,there is one boooks that I read several times,three times to be precise(though it is very,very long)this books is called"of human bondage" and it was written by Somerset Maugham.I read this books when I was 13 years old I think and I read in spanish.the story is very realistic , bitter and painful sometimes(though there is a happy ending).I think that this book captured my attention because it´s the story of a boy,an ordinary boy that has dreams and feels that sometimes life is very tough.he has to overcome several hardships in orden to find happiness(or at least a little bit of peace).these hardships and difficulties makes him a man mature enough to keep living(or surviving)in this wild world.I recognise myself in the character(philip)because he is a dreamer,and thinks that life is beautiful despite everything.
well,I´m going to tell you about one of my favourite albums.it´s called "the bends"and it was composed by Radiohead,a british alternative rock band of the ´90(they continue playing nowadays).this record is truly amazing,there are just songs,the deepest and emotional songs that you have ever heard.you can find different styles in this album,from pop,acoustic and electric sets,heavy guitars,sound landscapes and ballads.it is a melodic records,i have to admit that the mood is gloomy and depresing sometimes(i don´t know why,but I like sad song and very emotional lyrics).the lyrics are great,they are about desperation,alienation,lack of communication and understanding between people and broken hearts;pretty heavy don´t you think?anyway I love this album and evoke me feelings and memories of a difficult time in my life.in spite of this,the album is a beautiful work of art and a classic record in the history of rock.
