If Music Could Talk

Who's read Morrissey's Autobiography ? Is it worth my time, even as a hate-read? I love it... every other page had something that made me laugh out loud - usually, it was the bitterness and venom with which he described people (judges, teachers, politicians, royalty etc.) I can see how some don't l...

I just went to CNN's page. It has "live updates." Um, he's dead, and unless Jesus really despises us he isn't coming back.

Wasn't David Irving meant to have died? It was never confirmed and there's nothing on wiki so I get to celebrate that all over again when it does happen.

ahh... Mr Weir from Freaks and Geeks. I always liked him in that.

Yeah - would have taken me forever to get there.

Without looking it up, can you tell who this is?

The title track is my favourite from that album. Just blows me away. The lyrics and style influenced John Rotten. Listen to Harley singing "Destroy" after so wasted line.

That's a great shout - I'd never noticed that before

Yeah, Mr Harley made some great records! Everyone remembers Come Up & See Me of course, but Mr Soft and Judy Teen were catchy and quirky enough to lodge firmly in my childhood memory bank, and sound great to this day. RIP Steve. When I first started getting into music I was going through my Dads al...

I have a friend who would like to register on the forum but it's not working? He seems to be typing in the initials of the group members correctly but it's not working? Is there a bug at the moment? Thanks for your help Could he forward along a screenshot of what he sees? Might be an anti-spam thin...

60/60 - if it was pictures and no name I'd be at about 50 I think.

I like that and the other B sides from that era, that were also a Peel session.

Yep... IIRC, Half a Person, London and Is it Really So Strange were the others.

I top five for today with the NME rankings: These Things Take Time (49) I Want the One I Can't Have (37) The Queen is Dead (6) Half a Person (31) Paint a Vulgar Picture (39) My biggest complaint here is TTTT barely scraping the top 50 The only 4 I could live without are the 3 instrumentals and Golde...

Ewen McIntosh - Big Keith from The Office - only 50.

I'm loving the jokes going round about irving. How people are going to show up at his funeral and deny it's happening.

How on earth is "I Want a Boy for my Birthday" ahead of anything when it wasn't officially released?

And Golden Lights ahead of Miserable Lie... or Wonderful Woman.... or Jeane.... or Handsome Devil... or I Keep Mine Hidden is making me quite cross.
