If Music Could Talk

Heard too much bad Christmas music, eh?

Me, I merely shit on those jerks who pretend to follow the teachings of Jesus, but somehow got it 180 degrees wrong.

Yah, I got your glitter RIGHT HERE!

P.S. I've D/L'ed the GI tracks. Hope to listen to them soon.

Thanks, Flex!

I can't believe I grew up watching that show!

I watched it ironically, of course.

At least I think I did.

Happy Days, everyone!

Sorry, the switch has already been made: Wentz = douchebag

Very useful.

Mayfair, mentioned in The Clash's "Remote Control".

Do you think it's because of your "baby bump" and hence your resemblance to a fertility goddess?

It was the first single by a British band to reach #1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100.

Welcome back, Joe Public.

Stick around. The inmates who remain are amusing to watch sometimes.

Can't say, exactly.

But it gets suspended after your fourth pint.

Thanks. That makes sense ... the instruments are very Pogues-like, aren't they?

Ha ha, indeed:

Choose cake or ice cream?
You are daft not to try both
So many flavors!

On a related note, when was the "Generations" version of "In the Pouring Rain" recorded? (I'm referring to the version that's on the Joe Strummer "Generations" compilation.)

And who were the musicians?
