Just a "sweet, soft, normal girl"... ... who happens to be GORGEOUS! Not so hard when you start out as a blank Whispering Grass "Padme" sculpt. I couldn't take a bad photo of this face. I didn't even edit the photos! #forevervirginia #bjdfaceup #bjdfaceupartist #bjdfaceupcommission #whisperinggrass https://www.instagram.com/p/CNTm9-9DZ8U/?igshid=1u431enuwdaow

“It was one of my ex-girlfriends that first got me into The Ink Spots, about 20 years ago. She had this Best Of album on vinyl but took it with her when she left (most inconsiderate) so I was delighted to find it in a Record Fair a couple of years ago for the fine price of €1. I would happily have paid more, it’s a great introduction to most of their best known work. . I think she may have got into The Ink Spots from their ghostly appearance in one of her favourite films, Blade Runner. Or it’s appearance in the original trailer, it was then replaced in the film with Vangelis’ own version of 1940s Doo-Wop. In fact there’s something about The Ink Spot’s music, the close harmonies, the melancholic air, the simplicity and similarity of the compositions which imbues nostalgia and longing for a lost time and lost worlds. Their music is a popular choice in artistic portrayals of dystopian future worlds. Whether this is purely to do with the music, or the period it invokes, I’m not certain. The late 30s to mid-40s was war time, a time of rationing and of being under siege, surviving against the odds. . The track used in the Blade Runner trailer, but later replaced, was If I Didn’t Care, the first track on this Best Of. It’s not only their biggest hit, but it remains to this day the 9th best-selling single of all time, racking up over 19 million copies. According to Wikipedia it is also “the first studio recorded example of the Ink Spots “Top & Bottom” format with Bill Kenny singing lead and Hoppy Jones performing the “talking bass”.” . Other highlights are Whispering Grass; Java Jive; Duke Ellington’s classic Don’t Get Around Much Anymore, and my personal favourite I Don’t Want To Set the World On Fire. One day I will set this piece of music to my own dystopian vision of the future. That’s if the future doesn’t catch up with us all first.” .
