Happy Face

I don't know why I like it. But I do. I didn't get into the Drift at all. Having said that, it took me years to get into Tilt. But his Brel covers are supreme. My Toontastic review was "discombobulating".

I don't know why I like it. But I do.

Finished with my woman 'cause she couldn't help me with my mind People think I'm insane because I am frowning all the time All day long I think of things but nothing seems to satisfy, Think I'll lose my mind if I don't find something to pacify Can you help me occupy my brain? Oh yeah I need someone to show me the things in life that I can't find, I can't see the things that make true happiness, I must be blind Make a joke and I will sigh and you will laugh and I will cry Happiness I can not feel and love to me is so unreal And so as you hear these words telling you now of my state I tell you to enjoy life, I wish I could but (it's/I'm) too late Still a bit naff. Nevertheless, more about it than...say....27th May

At least that's funny though. Who wrote that anyway? Sex Farm is better. Ploughing through your pea-patch, Poking your hay

Not really, as I said at the start, I find them hilarious. I just find it funny that someone who seems to be amusical wants to wade in and slag other peoples taste off.

Jesus H. Christ. It's got to be difficult to match up with the quality of We'll be together again Ive been waiting for a long time We're gonna be, We're gonna be together again Ive been connected to the right line We'll be together and nobody aint never gonna disconnect us or ever separate us or say to us you've got to Stop! Stand there where you are before you go to far before you make a fool out of love Stop! Don't jump before you look get hung up on a hook before you make a fool out of love

It's not so much that I think it's all thrash metal or cock rock, just that it's all noisy shit. I hate the fact it is so hackneyed and cliched. The guitars are used to ridiculous excess, killing the melody in the process, and the lyrics are banal and almost always stereotyped (can't think of a single good lyrical song). Then there's the utterly ridiculous 'look' that accompanies it. Ironically, metal fans also tend to be hugely arrogant about the value their music has, which is close to zero for most people. And before anyone starts, I do not rate goth stuff now either, it's equally bollocks! That is ridiculous. A truly uninformed comment. There are a lot of shit metal bands that do things badly, but thats the same for any genre of music. When metal is done well not only is it melodic, but some of the most amazingly technical music you'll get. Dismissing metal as having 'zero value' and 'stereotyped' is poor IMO. Ridiculous. Really? OK, the melody is a moot point, if you like it, that's up to you. But I think we can be more objective on the banality of the lyrics of these bands. Why don't you point me in the direction of a Metallica song that has deep and meaningful lyrics then? I mean, even the names of metal bands tend to be stereotyped, I mean Metallica ffs. Iron Maiden. Slayer. Poison etc. I know I know very little about the genre now, especially how it has progressed over the last 10 years (although a lot of my friends tried to convince me it was quality in the 80s and 90s, none of them are really into it now), so point me to some stuff which isn't about drug taking, war, violence, shagging, or the Occult etc and maybe I'll think differently. System Of A Down Syndrome Of A Down more like. Very clever. In all the time I've been on any of these forums I don't recall ever once seeing you admit to liking any music whatsoever. Actually, you did mention Ian Brown once I think, is that the extent of your tastes?

I explained they were just examples. That makes it all the more condescending. "If you don't know what eg means....".

Do they do guitar solos that sound like this: widdlywiddlywiddlywiddlywiddlywiddlywwooooOOoOoooooowiddlywiddlywiddlywiddlywiddly Like Steve Vai and Joe Satriani's cobblers that everyone tries to tell me are masterpieces. If I could play the guitar that well, I'd do something other than fit as many notes into a minute as possible. Shut up! Fuck you! You fuckin dick! Always ney saying everything I create! You piece of shit, you create something like inward singing! You fucking shit you fucking sit in your tower... ...and fucking nap. Fuckin, fuck out fuckin... cock a-ass.

I'd like to be a lottery winner who refused to go public.

James Brown - Live at the Apollo I've set the instrumental bridge as my ringtone

The Chipmunks?

Trance is the only music without any redeeming features.

Why is it no surprise that Youtube boy wants to be the next Beckham?

An actor gets the most money for the least work. But I always wanted to be an architect.

It doesn't matter if it is good. It only matters if it ROCKS.

Sight and Sound gave it a glowing review. A work of genius apparently. I didn't need to see it to know they're talking shite. The intellectualism of football has gotten silly. It's not art. It's just blokes displaying the odd bit of skill occasionally.

Squarepusher - Hello Everything

It's Spinal Taptastic. One of the funniest documentaries I've ever seen. James Hetfield being all introspective about how difficult fame is, how annoying it is that you can never be anonymous, how much pressure it puts on you. Cut to a scene of him with in german helmet, cruising down the motorway on a 3 wheel hotrod, staring down everybody he passes then leaving them in his dust. Prick.

There was a show on TV a few years back about her pre-modelling days when she used and abused every fecker she knew to get money out of them and find the richest husband she could for herself. She dumped her fiance a few days before the wedding so she could cultivate the romance with Macca. She sold the story of her mothers death to a paper just days after she died. That's all I remember, but there's more.

How many movies do you watch per week? Normally 3 or 4.

John Ruskin - On Art and Life Shit so far like.

From Here To Eternity I've been watching loads of old films recently and thoroughly enjoying their upbeat outlook, they always cheer you up unlike the cynical modern films. I thought I'd get a nice cheer up off this love story set around Pearl Harbour 50's film, but christ it's bleak. I wanted to top myself. Bloody good though.
