Should the rating system on iPod/iTunes (and Sony thingies as it goes) be out of ten rather than 5?

I mean, you can't pack the nuances between good and shit with just 5 stars can you.


Plus I use the 1 star as a signifier that it was a bad rip and needs to be redone, so really it's out of 4, rubbish.

Oh yes, listening, not ranting, I remember.


Just did my Fopp spree.


New Decemberists, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Bat for Lashes and Yo La Tengo albums plus a couple of others.


Will report back, but Decemberists already shaping up to top their last sublime album!!


IO saw the Doves there, but was already knocking on the door of 70 quid and decided to leave it for another day.

well, they haven't lost their touch for a dark song!!!


The Rake

-----------


I had entered into a marriage

In the summer of my twenty-first year

And the bells rang for our wedding

Only now do I remember it clear

Alright, alright, alright


No more a rake and no more a bachelor

I was wedded and it whetted my thirst

Until her womb start spilling out babies

Only then did I reckon my curse

Alright, alright, alright

Alright, alright, alright


First came Isaiah with his crinkled little fingers

Then came Charlotte and that wretched girl Dawn

Ugly Myfanwy died on delivery

Mercifully taking her mother along

Alright, alright, alright


What can one do when one is widower

Shamefully saddled with three little pests

All that I wanted was the freedom of a new life

So my burden I began to divest

Alright, alright, alright

Alright, alright, alright


Charlotte I buried after feeding her foxglove

Dawn was easy, she was drowned in the bath

Isaiah fought but was easily bested

Burned his body for incurring my wrath

Alright, alright, alright


And that's how I came your humble narrator

To be living so easy and free

Expect you think that I should be haunted

But it never really bothers me

Alright, alright, alright

Alright, alright, alright

i'm listening to


Sigur Ros - beautiful music, saw them in Melbourne- they rocked.

Polysics- japanese electro-rock

- Canadian alt rock

- Maladroit rocks

- what's better than Arnie + metal- metal songs abt Arnie

Regina Specktor- quite possibly the most beautiful song ever.


and a really catchy song on Xfm ( sadly the dj never mention the band name or song title ) [i think the lyrics include the following lines- nobodys' watching, everybodys watching *mumbles something* ..watchout..*other lyrics*..and it breaks my heart in 2]

1st person to name the band/ song gets a beer...

    • Greg did an amazing job! He built a cabinet in my living room and added shelving. A lovely guy and perfectionist who goes the extra mile. He really understands what you want and comes up with various options to meet your price range. Would highly recommend!
    • I love the fact that virtually everyone held their hands out when furlough payments were made yet can't equate massive debt with massive cash payments to keep the economy ticking over.   
    • The problem with delivery people nowadays is that they are on such a restrictive schedule that they literally have to just try to deliver and run, otherwise they are penalised. I understand the frustration though.   And good luck making any kind of complaint to Evri. I once sold a laptop on ebay, took it to the Evri pick-up, where it was processed and it then went 'missing' between their pick-up place and the hub. Went through a long, long process where they offered me a desultory amount in compensation and I had to take them to small claims court before they came up with a fair offer the day before we were due to be in court. Long story short, Evri are shite.   Go to look at this forum for the number of people who have issues: https://nationalconsumerservice.co.uk/forum/183-postal-and-delivery-services/
