[@spaceman607]

I'm highly intrigued by the cover art. The hollow caskets where there should be eyes. The blood red forehead, seemingly skinless, revealing a disturbed soul. Combined with the neutral glare of the succesful business man. This is what Patrick Bateman would look like if his looks revealed his inner self: completely dissolved. Like a bag of shards, kept together by the tightness of his suit. Eerie, really eerie.

In fact, I want my pain to be inflicted on others. I want no one to escape. But even after admitting this, there is no catharsis. My punishment continues to elude me.

[@vernefits1953]

I'm just a happy camper. Rockin' and a-rollin'!

[@ForARide]

John Cale born 1942 in Garnant/Wales, started playing piano aged six, joined the Welsh Youth Orchestra aged 14, learned several other instruments such as the viola. Late 50's and early 60's Cale studied music at Goldsmith's College in London, to then emigrate to the US in 1963 on a Leonard Bernstein scholarship. Worked with avantgarde luminaries John Cage, La Monte Young and Yannis Xenakis. Bumped into Lou Reed late 1964 to form The Velvet Underground and was mainly responsible for their then revolutionary sound, adding classical and avantgarde elements and sounds to the band, such as the droning viola. After been kicked out of the Velvets in 1968 after their second album White Light/White Heat, Cale went on to arrange and produce Nico's album triology The Marbe Index, Desertshore and The End, laying the foundation of what was later to become goth. Furthermore he produced the debuts by The Stooges, Patti Smith and The Modern Lovers, all to become milestones in the making of punk. Since leaving the Velvets Cale has released more than 30 albums, including several soundtracks ranging from rock to pop, classical to experimental or electronica to punk. Cale has no musical limits and is easily one of the most versatile musicians who has ever walked this earth. The term genius is often used in an inflationary way, but in his case it is spot on. There is only ONE John Cale!

This movie is meant to be funny, not sad. But the last three tracks are so melancholic and bleak. You really feel his emptiness and loss of touch with reality. (The Desk, the Day Planner, and the End). Seeing Jean flip through his planner while crying kills me.

Right, recently when watching it again I said Jeezis John Cale did the music, because it was in the opening credits. I thought, wow, this movie is in itself it's own dynamic masterpiece - because it's nothing like the book - but I watch it a couple times a year and read the book every once in awhile too - separate. They're both great and because Ellis was the topic, very eighties and I love the eighties. This soundtrack is so very good it should have been released with other stuff as a record, strange that it wasn't. Puts me in the mood to bribe the man at Dorsia to get a table or take him out into the alley if he doesn't comply.

I live in the American Gardens building on West 81st Street, on the 11th floor. My name is Patrick Bateman. I'm 27 years old. I believe in taking care of myself, in a balanced diet, in a rigorous exercise routine. In the morning, if my face is a little puffy, I'll put on an icepack while doing my stomach crunches. I can do a thousand now. After I remove the icepack, I use a deep-pore cleanser lotion. In the shower, I use a water-activated gel cleanser. Then a honey-almond bodyscrub. And on the face, an exfoliating gel-scrub. Then I apply an herb mint facial masque, which I leave on for ten minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an aftershave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm, followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion. There is an idea of a Patrick Bateman. Some kind of abstraction, but there is no real me. Only an entity-- something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze... and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours... and maybe you can even sense our life styles are probably comparable, I simply am not there.

​@@CamMciJohn Cale is a classically trained musician, he started learning the piano aged six, joined the Welsh Youth Orchestra aged fourteen learning several instruments, among them his trademark viola. In the early 60s Cale studied musicology at Goldsmith's Collage in London and emmigrated to the US in 1963 on a Leonard Bernstein scholarship where he would work under the guidance of avant-garde luminaries John Cage, LaMonte Young and Iannis Xenakis. In late 64 Cale bumped into Lou Reed, forming the Velvet Underground and being their main creative force behind their then revolutionary and groundbreaking sound. John Cale is easily one, if not the most versatile musician(s) ever to have walked this planet. Musical genius isn't even enough to describe this mans musical talent!
