I was looking for a band sticker in my miscellaneous music things box right now, and I randomly came across a print out of THIS BLOG POST. I think it's the only time I've ever printed one.
I printed out this post because one of readers left a comment that really made my day. the comment was from, get this, EXACTLY A YEAR AGO (I love happy coincidences). this comment preceded my Strokes posts and when my blog had really picked up a following. anyhow, this is a shout out to Matteo, because you fucking made my day.
as most of you know, I don't have a very good relationship with my family. music has always been my one and only home, and you guys are like my sorta creepy second cousins whom I fondle awkwardly in a drunk stupor at xmas. so thanks to everyone who reads this site, especially as MIE's second birthday is steadily approaching. any time I hear anything really spectacular, the first thing that I think about is posting about it, so I appreciate that you guys take the time to read it
Chris McCandless summed up how I feel about music pretty well: "happiness is only real when shared"
The Pains of Being Pure at Heart - A Teenager in Love [mp3]
I'm posting this mostly because I am listening to it right now but partly because I love how he sings "a teenager in love with christ and heroin". so.good.

I would gladly let you drunkenly fondle me at an xmas party, that's just how cool you are.
Was a too drunk to notice the fondling?
But you know that you have many loyal (and silent) readers, don't you?
I'm one of them.
(Not so silent today)

It's always a pleasure being fondled awkwardly in a drunk stupor at xmas. Especially by you :) Matteo is definitely right: MY FAVE MUSIC BLOG!!!
Here's something that may or may not make your day again:

My vote for best music blog!
aaaaagreed.. you are my favorite music blog by a landslide.
I love your blog Hanan. It's always refreshing to come across someone who has awesome taste in music =-)
I agree. Brilliant blog, I read every post.
Also, this song is fantastic. As a teenager in love, it's the only song that seems like it's talking to me.
Really belated, but I am catching up on the MIE I've missed out on of late. It's probably not necessary to put into words as I should think it's obvious, but I love this blog.
