If Music Could Talk

Just realized that I hadn't credited Flex with 18 points for Brian Wilson.

Here's another: Eels. From Beautiful Freak (1996) to Blinking Lights (2005), E released six very good to excellent albums of different styles. Since then, I just haven't been able to warm up to what he's doing. Most of it just seems like generic rock music. Maybe I've grown too jaundiced to apprecia...

Lydon, tho a little qualification. The last truly good PiL record was Album . He may have surrounded himself with good musicians since then, but the music itself (including his lyrics) has been quite uninspired, with his voice increasingly neutered of its best qualities. The last excellent record he...

Not gonna lie, I really tempted to pull the trigger on this absurdity: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/135527606679?_skw=richard+nixon+watch&itmmeta=01JYF85MJYQ8XTTEJ1YGJYMTGP&hash=item1f8e132997:g:Pl4AAOSwoxdnnGPC&itmprp=enc%3AAQAKAAAA8FkggFvd1GGDu0w3yXCmi1cFu6bUqHkqKQEYNIzE%2BeVI8eeu7Y8H4or17Rz87fOmPIlRL...

the momentum for we built this city is getting really alarming.

I swear, people never learn.

However, riddle me this, Hestonites: Why does this song attract commercials for toilets and toilet paper?

And the org chart indicates that I am the president!

The one available to the public isn't the real one.

Dismissed.

YOU'RE NOT THE BOSS OF ME.

Check your organizational hierarchy. I became executive vice president of horseshit back in January.

And the org chart indicates that I am the president!

Dammit.

Dammit, sir.

How's the weather where you are? We're at 43º with the humidex. Apart from refilling the birdbaths, I've stayed inside.

I voted for Stevie because even though that song is wretched, he's still Stevie. That's the thing. If people are willing to vote Clash or Joe because of the other great stuff they've/he's done, how can you reject Stevie or McCartney? Be consistent with your methodology until it no longer works. YOU...

Liked them less each time I discovered another of their influences, til all that was left was the thousand ...
