Jimi's Interests
|
| General | A friend’s love tells us:
“If you ever need anything,
I’ll be there.”
True love tells us:
“You’ll never need anything;
I’ll be there.”
Jimi Hollemans
I wrote that quote/poem (I’ve never quite known what to call it) in a letter to a friend in late 2002. It wasn’t in the body of the letter, but written in the margin. Unrequited love was the theme of the letter, and I was just clarifying my thoughts. When she got the letter, Catherine mentioned how much she and her mother had liked the “thing i wrote on the side”, and that I could copyright it by posting it on poetry.com. So I did, and didn’t think much of it for quite awhile. In late 2005, I entered my last name into a search engine and was suprised to return hundreds of results, “Hollemans” isn’t that common a name. When I followed the links I realized many of them were posts or personal pages containing my quote. It had apparently been a finalist for poetry.com’s monthly contest (earning honorable mention) and other people liked it. It has been really interesting to see how it has been used and spread through the web. | | Music | dylan,the dead,cash,waylon willie and the boys, winehouse, michael buble, norah jones, flogging molly, dropkick murphys, NOFX, MDC, KMFDM, the dead kennedys and milkmen, bb king, daddy yankee, juanes, gilberto de los santos, los lonely boys, Santana, john lee hooker, ray charles, suicidal tendencies, bad brains, social distortion, jim jones, easy e, NWA, Dre, Snoop, Too $hort, the ramones, the offspring, the white stripes, the doors, the who, the clash, crass, gg allin, fugazi, the pogues, the dubliners, the young dubliners, da yoopers, frank deano and sammie, wayne newton, john denver, allison krause, pat green, hank williams sr jr and III, four, the hate fuck trio, nirvana, NIN, ministry, loretta lynn, emmylou harris, DAC, george jones, merle haggard, magadog, the genitortures, lords of acid, the mighty mighty bosstones, big bad voodoo daddy, the stray cats and his orchestra, glenn miller and his, roger miller, ernest tubb, tom t hall, tupac, simon and garfunkel, jimmy buffet, joe cocker,joe walsh, fat joe, joe satriani, country joeabd the fish, phish, jimi hendrix, jefferson airplaneship, crosby stills nash and young, H20, L7, the riot grrls, southern culture on the skids, bob marley, cypress hill, the beastie boys, dolly parton, beethoven, muzio clementi, mozart's piano stuff, three irish tenors,the gotohells, third story basement, cheeky monkey,
