I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Some surprises there. Does Ide really buy that much Bon Jovi merchandise?

Also, how can Rihanna possibly make less than Britney Spears!?  :wacko:

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

I was amazed that Sade was still doing so well.

I'm surprised that some of those people are even on that list.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Wings--Band on the Run (good song all the way, but the "if I ever get out of here" part should last way longer, since it's the best part).

Boris - Pink, well.. it came recommended, but I'm not much for distorted music for the sake of distortion. Farewell is good though.

Less people buying her albums, most likely.

Why'd you pick out Britney as opposed to Lil Wayne or Sade? Or Bob Seger, though I suppose a big chunk of that is probably from truck commercials.

Planet of Zeus - Leftover

Pretty decent Southern Rock. And surprisingly good video production values for a small fry band.

@DucquedeBraganca: They're in Vienna 30th of April, concert tickets €10. I wouldn't mind checking them out.

Duly noted :)

I'm listening to all of 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy' radio series in broadcast order and it's a joy to hear it after so many years.  :bowler:
