Eu já nem me lembro de como cheguei ao HearYa.com, mas desde o primeiro acesso, visitar o site se tornou uma obrigação (mais que prazerosa) em meus dias. São boas indicações musicais (The Everybodyfields e Samantha Crain and the Midnight Shivers, só p'ra citar os que mais gostei) e críticas ótimas - o tal do Oz consegue descrever as sonoridades de maneiras muito interessantes: “...the highly addictive following track ‘Write It All Down For You’, that smacks you in the face. After each verse in the chorus you’ll hear ‘Hey, hey, hey’ chants that make hand claps jealous”; tudo parece tão bom nas palavras dele que acaba sendo difícil resistir a ouvir as faixas indicadas.
I made two magnificent discoveries yesterday. 1) Reruns of the greatest television show of our generation, Average Joe: Hawaii (the one with David Daskal and Fabio), are now playing on the Fox Reality Channel. 2) Sting is now bearded.
I uncovered Sting’s beard at the Obama Inauguration Bash, and it shocked me. I know Sting has had a beard before, but this time it’s different. It’s not one of those blondish, well-manicured, Peter Horton in "Side Out" half-beards that were used in the late 80’s/early 90’s to lure unsuspecting jazzercise instructors into the backseat of your t-top Camaro. Oh no, Sting is rocking a full-on, untamed indie hipster beard.
I ask you, is this the first official sign that beards are reaching the end of their product lifecycle? Are indie hipster beards going the way of the Cornrow, the JewFro, and the Faux Hawk? One can only speculate, but when Sting has time to set down the lute and grow a beard, it’s probably not a good sign.
Sting aderiu à barba e reapareceu. Preparem seus barbeadores. E seus ouvidos!
P.S.: A autora do texto deixa claro que não apóia atos de violência contra barbas. Mas não pode deixar de manifestar seu descontentamento ao vê-las envolvidas com figura tão triste quanto Sting.
