simple and slow, it grows

i love when, in listening to an album or a recording that's a "studio" mix, there are small snippets of the singer or the drummer or the bass player or someone else talking, either at the very end or the very beginning of the song. i'm not too sure why this amuses me so much, but i always feel like i've found some kind of treasure when a small phrase or a shouted voice is caught on tape, especially in the background.

i woke up earlier than usual this morning, remembering, suddenly, a small chore i was meant to do at the fish shop.

as soon as i find a shirt, i'm good to go for the day.
