许魏

I hope I’ve got the right characters in the title…. must be, they worked in a Baidu search. lzh just told me Xu Wei’s songs all sound the same. That may be true, but I like his style. Just thought I’d say that.

Cos I don’t have much else to say right now. Work is good, and terrible. Tests, you see, which make for an easy classtime, and hell marking. Especially when one glance at the papers as they’re handed in tells you you’re going to have to give the kids a good rark up next week. Yep, I think my Monday is going to provide Golden Throat all the annual revenue they’re going to need.

Yeah, my second years are going to get a pretty harsh wake-up call.

My first years, though- -so far, at least- -are doing things exactly perfectly, and that is good. I’m hoping the rest of this week’s first year testing continues the way it started.

But listening to Xu Wei puts me back in the mood I generally prefer. Xu Wei is good.

  1. I believe it’s 许巍 — 巍峨的巍. I do like his stuff, though I think he was a lot more interesting in his grunge phase, before he started smoking a lot of dope and singing about how much he loves Jesus Buddha.

  2. Yup, pulling the CD out of the stack, I can see you’re right. 巍 with that little 山 on top that I missed. Oops.

    Actually, I’m not all that familiar with what he’s been singing about lately, to be honest. I really do like his sound, and having heard that new song today I want to get out and buy newer albums than the one I have. Unfortunately this week is shaping up to be a bit on the busy side.
