I came across this video last night for Atlas Sound's "Activation", and I was going to post it because I really like it. I've been listening to a lot of Atlas Sound lately, and this song is great. But I also love the old video of strippers and pin up girls. The way the visuals and audio sync up makes it seem very beautiful and almost sad. I've been into that stuff for a long time, including my "naked ladies" (the turn of the century pin up girls I have in my bathroom haha). But when I found out that Bettie Page had died it seemed even more fitting, and sad. Even though she's unfortunately become a bit of a cliche, and living in Austin in the midst of thousands of girls with dyed black hair, bangs and cherries covering everything they owned started to get old pretty quickly haha, I still love her. She was very beautiful, and I have to admit, I've had the bangs before and I'm sure I'll have them again haha.
