The Voice, Not the Body

I am officially stalking Robert Pattinson, the Twilight vampire guy.

No, no. I don't think he's all kinds of sexy. The iridescent paleness of his character just doesn't do it for me.

But did you know that the dude can sing? No? Nor did I.

You see, I was busy watching the first Twilight movie, to compare it to New Moon after Jer and I had a date to see it opening night, and I'm always caught by the song near the end of the movie. You know the one I'm talking about. The song that plays while the vampire guy sucks the venom out of the damsel's arm and the other vampires dance gaily around the fire?

Yep, that song.

Anyway, I was searching through the 'net to find out who sings it and if maybe there are more songs by this person that I enjoy. Turns out, none other then Mr. Pattinson, himself, sings the song. Which got me looking for more of his work. Hardly of which I could find. But, man, the few things that are out there I really like.

So now I'm stalking the dude via the internet. Not because he's hot, which, when you look at pics of him in a non creepy vampire way, uh, he's not quite as bad in the looks department as his current movie character depicts.

Which also leads me to wonder why the theater was packed with an entire gaggle of ladies my mother's age who were all swooning over him and Taylor Lautner's character. Creepy.

ANYHOW.

So now I'm stalking his music. Which, doesn't get me very far since he doesn't exactly record or play for large camera toting audiences.

I'm wondering if he picked the wrong career choice. He's definitely a better guitar player and singer of songs then he is a vampire. Though, maybe his new movie coming out next year will be a better representation of why he keeps getting hired for these acting gigs. Seriously. They showed the preview for his next movie, Remember Me, before New Moon on Friday night and, uh, I'd like to mark my calendar for March 12, 2010 as having a few hours reserved for me and a tub of popcorn at the local Regal Cinema.
