Song of the week: Placebo – Meds

This is my song of this week, I just can’t stop listening to it.

What -I used to think- most of us think about this song is basically that it is a song about a person who forgot to take his meds.. And because he’s forgotten, he have done things he didn’t want to do: The sex, the drugs and the complications… maybe he wasn’t not long time ago dismissed from a clinic for psychotics.

Well, I’m actually going to propose something kind of different here. Maybe it’s just because I’ve related it to personal experiences and made it mean what I need it to mean.

A man whose heart has been just obliterated by the person he so deeply loves is going crazy now because the person finally came back when it was too late to save him from a minor case of lovesick insanity.

The person comes back and just wants it all to just be how it was before the person messed up. Well, he just can’t take it. He’s still processing the betrayal and he can’t escape the pain. the person’s never been hurt like that and all that person can focus on is wanting him back how he was before- desperately in love with him and adoring him every second. So when he just can’t respond to him like he used to, he pushes anti-depressants on him so he’ll just “get back to normal” for him. He refuses because he’s not about to medicate himself so he’ll forget and forgive his major mistakes. He notices and doesn’t like him off the meds because he’s not in the palm of his hand anymore.

Well, it gives a good mood.

New Nano-Chromatic iPod Nano 8 GB in Kuwait

The new iPod nano (only 8 GB) is now available in Kuwait at Virgin Megastore and Digits. I just checked the Apple UK Store (since Kuwait prices are usually close to UK’s) and found that the 8 GB is for £109 without shipping (which is equivalent to 52 KD). I was surprised to see Digits selling it for 59 KD only! while Virgin sells it for 72 KD. which is a rip-off!

I think Digits are improving and that’s a good sign, their price is only 7 KD+ and trust me, if you order the iPod and ship it (you will pay shipping to UK then to Kuwait) it will cost you more.

Digits have all colors in stock besides the yellow, orange and red models.

Call them on 2224 47 93 (Marina Mall branch), 2573 58 15 (Galleria 2000 Mall branch) or 2393 02 10 (Al-Kout Mall branch).
