The Kaleb Horton Deceased Latvian Foreign Minister Thread, 2022 Edition
Re: The Kaleb Horton Deceased Latvian Foreign Minister Thread, 2022 Edition
Good work Jenny and eumaas.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Wow, Bat Out of Hell is the best selling album ever in Australia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_b ... _AustraliaHeston wrote: ↑23 Jan 2022, 4:14pmLow Down Low wrote: ↑22 Jan 2022, 6:04pmMy recall of Bat out of hell is it was pretty a big deal where i was based and while it wasn't my bag, i always associated it with the "classic" category.

Yes, I'm surprised at people on here calling them a one hit wonder, I always assumed they were as big in America.
I grew up with Bat Out of Hell and I do like the title track, and You Took the Words Right Out of My Mouth is a fantastic song. I also thought Deadringer For Love was a shitkicking little ditty.
Who the fuck is John Farnham? He has the second best selling album in Australia. Also, why isn't ACDC in the top 20? This is as egregious as the UK hating Zeppelin.

He must have sung that "Tie Me Kangaroo Down" song. And where's The Easybeats?

The 4th best selling album of all time so hardly a shock? It has spent over 10 years in the UK album chart.matedog wrote: ↑24 Jan 2022, 12:11pmWow, Bat Out of Hell is the best selling album ever in Australia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_b ... _Australia
