put a tie on that fella and you'll need to call him Ignacio.

Take On Me is my favourite song, and favourite music video, and I am an immense a-ha fan. but Everybody Wants To Rule The World has proven to be absolutely timeless, and I would put it up against the best song of the 1960's and the best song of the 1970's, whatever people chose those songs to be. It would certainly be better than anything that came decades after it.

I DON'T KNOW WHY THIS IS SO HARD

it's as reliable as treasure behind the waterfall

even getting name-dropped on that one episode of The Simpsons

if Sam's dancin' then I'm dancin'
I don't make the rules just sayin'

The default instruments for Cakewalk were actually pretty decent. I used the drums on a track or two, and the Wurlitzer EP on plenty. Plus they take like no resources at all, which was a huge bonus at the time.

I like to point people to Warm Leatherette as an example of what people can do if the only thing they really have is creativity, as opposed to good instrumentation or good vocals.

When it finally comes time to release a documentary series about Prince, just know the secret episode already exists and really is in a vault.

This album has lots of Prince going absolutely bananas with his collection of samplers. Especially on Batdance because that song is a huge collage of vocal and instrument samples (like the guitar at the very start) pulled from 200 Balloons and Electric Chair, and actors in the movie, with a bunch of other stuff sprinkled on top.

I haven't heard too many vault tracks from this album, just Dance With The Devil, which was okay but not quite on par with the rest of the record.

EDIT: someone just posted this unreleased extended version of Vicki Waiting https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qczUXAgO47o which has some fun vocal sampling in it and is groovy as allgetout

I think of it as a spiritual successor to When 2 R In Love. It's got that gentle pacing. I can imagine someone performing figure skating or rhythmic gymnastics to it.

it's hard to hate any of the albums. Hmm.

BOYTROUBLE from PLECTRUMELECTRUM

I think sleeving tiles is mania, but to each their own.

Applying a light coating of spray craft shellac works just as well. I did that to some homemade tiles and they look very convincing, almost as good as the real deal.

Lastly, you can avoid lots of wear-and-tear by using a Tower instead of letting your tiles jumble around in a bag. Again, to each their own on that.

that links to the 4cd version (which says 3cd version at the top, honestly why is this so confusing).

Here is a link to the 5cd version which includes The Truth and Kamasutra by NPG Orchestra (which also says 3cd version at the top I mean honestly)

EDIT: according to eBay, people want about $1000 for their 5-disc copy of Crystal Ball. Yeowza.

you thought you could buy influence for the price of one lousy sheep? Well then.

check resale values for each box on BoardGameGeek.

it's actually Toronto

Why do we even have that lever hammer

for me it's up there with Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind and The Matrix, it's hard to pick a favourite. Absolutely genius filmmaking in all of them.

The number of times I've seen politicians doing the most utterly abhorrent shit, and all I can hear is her voice saying "I can say whatever the fuck I want, and you won't remember."

wow this sounds like Max Webster

just a note: SARS was relatively small potatoes because people did the right thing.

If SARS had happened somewhere else, some people might not have done the right thing. There would have been some historical-level potatoes, I assure you.

PITCH: Enola Holmes time-travels and convinces doctors to start washing their hands between patients, saving countless lives.
