Interlude 2

I’m currently editing my translation of JC Oates’s Man Crazy. Here’s what I’m listening to – so as not to get depressed over the vast amount of work, the impending deadline, the atmosphere of said book etc etc.

MGMT, “Time to Pretend”, from Oracular Spectacular, 2007

It’s disco & synth-pop, catchy & kitschty & glam, dancey & anthem-like. Oh, and what lovely lyrics!

Sorry about the streaky version of the video – the official video is unfortunately disabled for embedding. Just listen to the song, ok?

Now back to translating & editing.
Yeah, it’s overwhelming, but what else can I do.
Get jobs in offices, and wake up for the morning commute.

Hell, no!
