hi, my name is lauren. i live in new york, and occasionally sydney.

here is a portion, a collection of my life.

some of it has to do with travel. a lot of it has to do with photos. a bit of family, a bit of friends. a whole bunch of nonsense, really.

drop me a line sometime, i would love to hear from you: laurenfarmer (dot) blog (at) gmail (dot) com

Here’s a story. 

4 years ago, a 16 year old kid named Matt Corby almost won Australian Idol. I was 25, living in New York and I’m unashamed to admit I was just a little bit obsessed with him. I spent hoursa lot of minutes watching YouTube videos of his performances, including these insanely awesome ones of Music of the Night from Phantom and The Blower’s Daughter. I don’t doubt that I posted them on Tumblr 4 years ago. Update: I did. 

And now he’s all grown up (21, totally legal!), smokin’ hot and making waves with his new single Brother. Is it getting airplay in the States? If not, it should be. 

Here is a beautiful acoustic version. 

So yeah, Matt Corby. Remember that name.
