I love this song (: and I love Basquiat..

In a documentary that was made about him there's this one song that keeps comming back, the lyrics go something like "The clock is pst midnight, .. books are flying through the hall.." or something like that. Would anyone happen to know what it's called? (:

@illerskiller Have you ever thought that maybe drugs bring even more creativity out of an already creative person? Janis Joplin, Jimmie Hendrix, Layne Staly, The Beatles etc etc etc.

I am not one who thinks Basquiat was (or is) a great artist, painter, or person. What I do consider is that his work is seminal,his deeds were incidental, and his life was esoteric. The footage shown here of his 'simple' bombings are far more mechanical than the scribblings of a junkie, more genuine than a hack, more to the adage that not everyone can be a great artist, but a great artist can come from anywhere....

@parabrahma Do you know the name of that documentary?

@zadeh79 I have a feeling you're one of those people who thinks it's all about realism. It just isn't, and hasn't been (for the most part) for over a century. We have cameras for that. If you get a chance, you might want to look into expressionism and abstract expressionism. You could say Basquiat's work has a lot of roots in those traditions. It's meant to express an emotion (and to evoke one)---not to "look exactly like something."

And then--you could always stick to just wrestling.

@bluebanshee3 If that's absurd them I'm the best artist in the world.
