Looking back at 2011:
Leaving music aside, I think that I’ve grown a lot during this year.
During the first half I was very lonely and depressed; I cried all the time because I thpugh I was a weirdo that was always going to be alone. I had like an emotional crisis in september I think in which I even cried in school in front of everyone and wanted to change school. And as most of my schoolmates are good to me,...
Tomorrow I’m going on holidays so I’ll probably won’t be posting as often as I generally do for a couple of days. It’ll be a long trip so now I’m puting a lot of music in my Ipod :)

Anonymous asked: Why would you be so cruel? Adele is a wonderful woman and musician, how is she "copying" Amy Winehouse? I love Amy and it's so sad for me to see someone say that. They may both do soulful music, but that does not mean Adele is ripping off anyone.

isn’t juana your name as well?
Yes! We share the name :D

Surely Kick is the best. Annie is there. Arnaldo from Os Mutantes is also there. And besides, that ability to reset yourself and change each time you record anything is a common place to most of the musicians i really love. Take Blur, for example.
I’ve never thought of Blut like a changeable band, but...
lennuidubonheur replied to your post: I won’t insult you :) just wanted to thank you for the Becktionary. I did not know of its existence til i saw it here.
Beck cannot be fully understood. And that’s what is so thrilling about his work. Who would guess he’d do a version of Kick last year. So wonderfully impredictable :)
Totally, some people don’t like him for being so different in each...

Adele woudn’t even appear anywhere if Amy Winehouse wasn’t dead. If Amy was still alive and released a new album she would completely punch Adele and all those girl that are now trying to copy her.

I won't accept your Top 10 albums of the year if:
St. Vincent is not in it (at least give her a mention for her AMAZINGLY WONDERFUL album Strange Mercy)
PJ Harvey’s Let England Shake is not in the first 5 (unless you do your top ten without any orther)
Adele is in it (sorry, she has a good voice but there were far more better albums than the one of her. DID YOU LISTEN ROLLING STONE MAGAZINE?)
And I think that’s all.

Now, when you enter my blog you’ll find something that you will not understand if you don’t speak Spanish: “Un día voy a ser otra distinta”. That in English means “One day I will be another one different” and it’s the first line of a song by Juana Molina (yes, we share the name!) .
I still have a Magical Radiophonic Heart (which was my previous title that...

I love that when Laura Marling plays “Alas, I Cannot Swim” she seems to be enjoying it a lot.

Mañana me pongo a escuchar Juana Molina y les lleno mi Tumblr con ella. Lo haría hoy pero estoy cansada.

“I had a vision of the future, of myself dying a bitter old woman, watching MTV...”
– Juana Molina in an Interview for the New York Times.
She hates MTV, it seems that she’s calling me to listen to her.

I think I'll start listening to Juana Molina
Not only we share the name and country, but she recieves great reviews by magazines and newspaper mainly from the United States and she toured with Feist and my dad bough two of her albums, so I don’t even have to download them illegally. It’s a pity she’s not popular here in Argentina. Once we have someone to be proud of to say “The New York Times, Rolling Stone Magazine,...
aristocraticdegeneracy asked: Got it. I've just never seen a name like yours before. I've thought about it and how it would sound all day. lol :)

How sad that the only Argentinian musician that is well recieved outside Argentina and is considered a really good artist, is hated here in Argentina.
aristocraticdegeneracy asked: One more question, how do you pronounce your name?

OMG I just relized that the girl singing in “That’s My Bitch” of Jay-Z And Kanye West, is ELLY JACKSON of LA ROUX. That’s so amazing.

Banda De Turistas, my favourite band from Argentina, announced their third album!!! I’m extremely happy! I love them, I love them! I want to listen to it now. I don’t know why I’m writing this in English when nobody cares about them, but I do, I do, I do and I love their music.
