“I wrote one special song called ‘I Am Missing You,’ one of the few that I have written in English, a simply lyric that just gushed out of me when I was traveling on a plane. […] There were two versions of this song included. In the original Indian one sung mainly by Lakshmi Shankar, we attempted to convey the sounds and atmosphere of Vrindavan, the ancient holy city where Krishna grew up. […] We included an alternative version [produced and arranged by George Harrison in 1974] on which Lakshmi sang the same song with the music rearranged in a Western pop style by George, who also played the acoustic guitar and autoharp. This further featured Billy Preston on keyboards, Klaus Voormann on bass guitar, drums by Jim Keltner and Ringo Starr, saxophone by Tom Scott, and Emil Richards on marimba and percussion.” - Ravi Shankar, Raga Mala

“Ravi wrote a song and then he asked me, 'Do you want to sing it in pop style?’ I said, 'If you think I can, I will.’ So, then George heard it and he went mad about it. He said, 'Ravi, you do one Indian version and I’ll do one Western version.’” - Lakshmi Shankar, Poignant Song: The Life and Music of Lakshmi Shankar

“Lakshmi admired George musically and believed that beneath his rock star persona lay a deep Indian soul. Meanwhile, Kumar [Shankar] says that during his years working at [George’s] recording studio, 'George had mentioned to me many times how she was one of his favorite singers.’” - Poignant Song: The Life and Music of Lakshmi Shankar (x)

ZOMBIELAND ( 2009. ) SENTENCE STARTERS.

❛ my friends, this is now the united states of zombieland. ❜ 

❛ of course the first hot girl in a thousand miles shows up, makes me feel like an idiot, steals my double-barrel, and then says i’m the one that can’t be trusted. ❜

❛ you wanna feel how hard i can punch? ❜

❛ it’s just there’s zombies everywhere ━ i think the least of my worries is seat belts. ❜

❛ i mean, do what you want to a man, but do not fuck with his cadillac. ❜

❛ oh my god, i can’t believe i shot bill murray ! ❜

❛ i avoided people like they were zombies even before they were zombies. ❜

❛ i may seem like an unlikely survivor, with all my phobias and irritable-bowl syndrome,  but i had the advantage of never having any friends or any close family. ❜

❛ who’s gandhi? ❜

❛ rule number one for surviving zombieland: cardio. ❜ 

❛ you are like a giant cock-blocking robot, like developed in a secret fucking government lab ! ❜

❛ gotta’ enjoy the little things. ❜

❛ remember mad cow disease? well mad cow, became mad person, became mad zombie. ❜

❛ better you make the mistake of trusting us, than us make the mistake of trusting you. ❜

❛ it’s amazing how quickly things can go from bad to total shitstorm. ❜ 

❛ one more clean shot to the head and this lady could have avoided becoming a human happy meal. ❜

❛ you’re a peppy little spit-fuck, aren’t ‘ya? ❜

❛ my mama always told me someday i’d be good at something, who woulda’ guessed that something would be zombie-killing. ❜

❛ she’s only famous when she’s hannah montana ━  when she’s wearing the wig ! ❜

❛ i can tell already you are gonna get on my nerves. ❜  

❛ if it makes him happy and keeps him from using that crowbar on me, then i say ‘ hey, go ape shit ’.❜

❛ i survive because i play it safe and follow the rules ━ my rules. ❜

❛ is that how you say hello where you come from? ❜   

❛ if the girls in your neighborhood are now fucked-up little monsters, well maybe it’s time to stop driving carpool. ❜

❛ he sets the standard for not-to-be-fucked-with. ❜

❛ stop ━ no names ━ keeps us from getting too familiar. ❜

❛ you know they say ‘ he who seeks revenge should remember to dig two graves ’. ❜

❛ it would be nice to see a familiar face, or any face that doesn’t have blood dripping from its lips and flesh between its teeth. ❜   

❛ you got taken hostage by a twelve year old? ❜   

❛ the thing i fear more than anything, yes, even more than zombies ━ fucking clowns. ❜

❛ see, you just can’t trust anyone ━ the first time i let a girl into my life and she tries to eat me. ❜

❛ what can i say? i have a case of, uh, chronic anxiety. ❜

❛ another rule to surviving zombieland: travel light, and i don’t mean just luggage. ❜

❛ thank god for rednecks ! ❜

❛ in those moments when you’re not sure the undead are really ‘dead’ dead, don’t get all stingy with your bullets. ❜

❛ oh, which reminds me, i never had headaches like this till your ass came on board. ❜

❛ it’s amazing how far you can get with some costume jewelry and a cutthroat attitude. ❜

❛ someones ear is in danger of having hair brushed over it. ❜

❛ i don’t usually unlock my door to the sounds of panic, but my neighbor is insanely hot. ❜

❛ i’m not great at farewells so ━ that’ll do pig. ❜

❛ you know, i may not shoot you, but you still have royally pissed me off. ❜

❛ you should be scared, a homeless man just tried to eat you. ❜

❛ see, i told you we should have gone to russell crowe’s ━ nobody listens to me !  ❜

❛ that’s the worst goodbye I’ve ever heard, and you stole it from a movie. ❜

❛ pride ━ no where. dignity ━ long gone. virginity ━ totally justifiable to speculate on. ❜

❛ when you’re afraid of everything that is out there, you quit going out there. ❜

❛ all i could think of was ‘ what are the odds? another marriageable woman to bring home to the folks.’ ❜

❛ i’m not easy to get along with, and i’m sensing you’re a bit of a bitch. ❜

❛ we were all orphans in zombieland. ❜

❛ time to nut up or shut up. ❜

xo || spiritual beliefs meme .

            ❝ —nothing feels as wonderful as faith. Nothing in this world could ever compare to the tremendous impact it has on your life, when you find it. But, you must always fine it in yourself, it’s always been there, dormant as it waits for the one light that shines. We don’t have the time, not even a single second to spare, waiting to welcome that final step; the reason we are here. I put my faith on the wrong road for many years, oblivious to the truth that’s buried deep down in the darkness of the world we won’t be living in forever. We need to let it go, let it flow, let it be— there’s nothing that can save us but ourselves; our faith in something omnipresent guides a light along the path we should be following. There is only one true purpose in life——without the faith, there is no life.. there is no joyous afterlife, but for the few who believe.❞

Send † and my muse will talk about their religious/spiritual beliefs.

WOW I can't believe I just found out that the ACTUAL GEORGE HARRISON has a Tumblr account where he posts from heaven. My atheism just went down the drain

@argivebeauty 

[georgeharrisonbeatle]

You have absolutely no right to write George and take on his personality and identity. You’re a disgrace to all other roleplayers who know of the rules. What gives you the right to believe you are George? You should just delete your blog before tumblr does. They will because they did the same to another blog. Their guidelines state clearly that it’s prohibited to steal identities!

[  ooc  ]

Not sure if you’re Aug or not, but you certainly have similar tendencies, because she also went well out of her way to send anon hate to my friend for a number of years and also myself. At this point, though, I’m beyond the point of caring what others believe about this sort of thing. I know it makes other people uncomfortable when it comes to real person roleplaying. I’m fully aware of that, but these people have the option to not interact or follow this blog. If you’re genuinely offended by my roleplaying George, kindly come away from my blog, because no one is forcing you to linger here and involve yourself with something that you clearly do not agree with / like. I will not stop writing George, because this is an escape for me — this is one of the only accounts I have that I find any joy in these days and it has always been a place for me to share thoughts and feelings on the man himself, as much as it has been a place for creativity. I don’t take kindly to anon hate and I can honestly say it’s been a number of years since I last received any. 

I am taking this as hate because you are hiding on anon as opposed to coming to me directly to voice your concerns. If you had done that, we could have had this conversation in private, but in sending your opinion his way, you’re forcing me to reply publicly and I favour the opposite. Please do not send me messages in this way again. If you want to talk to me further on the matter, feel free to send me a direct message, but note that my activity on this account will not change. I am not going to stop writing George because there are those who disagree. I connect with the man through this medium and I find great joy in doing so; it brings a lot of peace. I have never been someone who disgraces his name and will never be. My writing on here is carefully planned / plotted and never intended to cause discomfort of any kind. If you are affected by it, I do urge you to stop giving attention to this blog. I’m not holding you here, nor making you read anything that I write. Take care.
