Now I have "White, Discussion" stuck in my mind.

Shit towne.

I nominated that song as my senior class graduation theme. It just fit so well. My best friend nominated Head Like a Hole. Some dipshit nominated the worst song ever made, which won.

I think I was at a disadvantage since the album came out about six weeks before prior to the ceremony.  :P

I like the Beatles and all, but that's pretty trite.

"Head Like a Hole" would be a far more accurate anthem for our times, though, wouldn't it? -_-

On the subject of bands that went nowhere after a breakout, I nominate Bush.  I was listening to that one song anybody ever heard off of Razorblade Suitcase today, and realized how little an impact they made after Sixteen Stone.  I imagine he still does something, but people think of Gavin Rossdale as a househusband these days.

Swallowed, Greedy Fly and Mouth all got radio play.

Seems they've all been forgotten though. Even the songs from Sixteen Stone have less than a million views on Bush's VEVO station.

that Mussolini boasted of bombing the Maltese railway into submission after a raid in 1940.

Actually the trainline in Malta stopped running for economic reasons in 1931.

But surely that was his whole gig;

Mussolini didn't make the trains not run on time.

Mussolini had bombs so powerful, they could time-travel.  :hmm:

Had to be fairly far into my fourth heroin, bleach and club soda to give her a try. But fair play to her, she does have, er, special hair.

Sure, if you like chubby little black dudes.
