Read: A strange reading month, mainly due to a lack of time. I sped through a second hand haul of old kids books (eight of them) before trying to read Arturo’s Island by Elsa Morante and absolutely loathing it, […]

But I’d love to hear him try! 😀

Well, I’d never heard of her before today, so I’m guessing her singing career was mainly on the church circuit! She died in her early 40s, so that didn’t help, I suppose. Swedes do not yodel. But we do this, to […]

Regarding the OP: Apparently (according to Swedish wiki) Inger was a Christian singer and married a pastor. She’s clearly miming in the clip, you can hear Agnetha’s voice. There’s a discography on wiki, but […]

As a kid I was obsessed with that photo – there’s a “clone” of every single member of my family in it! I was sure it had to mean something important…but what? I could never come up with a theory that managed to […]

Aha! So that’s why Max Martin never wants to be photographed!

I do however enjoy the way the YouTube play button makes him look like a scary clown!

I only lasted 42 seconds. Life’s too short to waste away!

I thought Oasis wrote How Sweet To Be An Idiot, in the 90s? 😉 Can’t remember what they called it then. Edit: Was Oasis in the 90s or the 2000s? I know nothing past 1987…

Only problem this time around is that this particular Yuletide I’m mega busy! It’s beginning to look like Santa’s going to bring me a tummy ulcer for Christmas…fa la la la la, la la la la! 🙂 I don’t think […]

@Kaisfatdad: As long as it isn’t a café that make us sit around a gigantic round table…

In my reality: Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome was a stand-alone cult classic, beloved by the same audience that enjoyed Lynch’s Dune, Flash Gordon, and the original – and only – Blade Runner (the voiceover version, of […]

I used to really like this series of books, but when I reread them a few years ago they really annoyed me. The difference between then and now is that I’ve developed a substantial allergy towards King Arthur, when […]

Well, my neighbours probably assume that I don’t listen to music, because I only ever listen through headphones! I don’t think they’d appreciate if I listened through my speakers, since I mostly do it between […]

I blame the Pink Floyd threads! 😉

As it turned out, so was I!

I own five on that list – but have only listened to three of them! 😀 OK, one is yet unlistened to because it only arrived this week, and I haven’t had the time or inclination to give it a spin yet (Sufjan – […]

Blimey – more fresh blood in one week than in the past year! Welcome; time to start thinking about your Best-Of-2023-lists…

Working on Sunday, so Saturday will be spent washing, cleaning, cooking, washing up, and possibly assembling an IKEA piece. Then being lazy all evening. Unless I “get out of bed on the wrong side”, in which […]

Not exactly what the OP asked for, but the band Goat seems to name half their tracks something with the word goat in it: Goatchild, Goatslaves, Goatband, Goatfuzz, Goatfizz, Goatman, Goathead, Goatlord, Goatmilk, […]
