i rediscovered a song i abandoned years ago, porcelain, not the moby track, but the red hot chilli peppers number number. reloaded it onto my ipod and re-lived the memories of my teen angst period. my mind cluttered with visions of party of five dawson's creek felicity and yes all of the above. funny how so many of my defining points of references are queezy, cheesey, mono-dimensional americana teen dramas - living in one's head has its side effects. anyway, porcelain is deeply deep, in the suicidal sense. very unlike the other rhcp songs on any of their albums. i think it's significant that the song is tucked away quietly at the end of carlifonication, something about that song disrupts the flow of that album. it feels like it doesn't belong there. super song though, feet to the stars kind of super. please sample and be edified:
