Thunder Road - probably my most played song of all time.


Going through my head at the moment Rendezvous and Fire - both Springsteen songs performed at the Paris show last week

since the Guardian had the songwriter booklets last week and I re-read the lyric to Springsteen's It's Hard To Be a Saint In The City, the song hasn't been out of my head


"I had skin like leather and the diamond-hard look of a cobra

I was born blue and weathered but I burst just like a supernova.."



awesome song



As for Mamma Mia film - I used to consume movie magazines by the whatever-a-large-amount-of-magazines-can-be-called but didn't even know about this, which shows how out of the loop I'm getting. As for Abba, I'm with Terence Stamp in The Adventures of Priscilla:


"no.. more... F***ing ABBA!!!!"

life

oh life

oh li-i-ife

oh life

do di do do doo


I'm afraid of the dark

'specialy in apark

something else that rhymes with dark

Lewis Carrol thought up the snark

Quite possibly while walking in a park

Perhaps in Oxford or possibly his home town of Sunderland where he was from and where he gained inspiration for many of the scenes and characters for his nonsense poems and of course that wonderful testament to the anarchy of the human imagination which is Alice in Wonderland (more correctly Alice?s Adventures in Wonderland)



Anyway the only way I think I?m going to get rid of this is by singing the first few lines of It?s Not Unusual but I don?t know if I have the strength to go through the whole of today with that stuck in my head instead.

Down at the bottom of the garden,

Among the birds and the bees,

A little lot of little people,

They call the Poddington Peas.


There's Creepy, Black Eye Pea and Dumpy.

Keep it a secret now please.

There's Zippy, Happy and there's Sweepy.

And all the Poddington Peas!


The Poddington Peas!


for the love of god!!!!!

Started off quite well this morning with I Chase the Devil by Max Romeo. Went downhill later with various bits of music from Mario Kart Wii, and now is really scraping the bottom of the barrel with some Kaiser Chiefs dross (I can do anythi-iiiiiing, dooby do do).

Is that the one where the lyrics go...



I don't like cricket, uh, oh no, I love it uh


:-$ uh thanks PGC gona be stuck in MY head all afternoon now! ha!


Its between that and everybody hurts at the moment, although there is a song, I don't know who it is by but the lyrics go something like this,


Walking 'round the room singing Stormy Weather

At Fifty Seven Mount Pleasant Street

Well it's the same room but everything's different

You can fight the sleep but not the dream


chorus = everywhere you go, you always take the weather with you,

    • "attack on the tax", I posted a link, how was that an attack? I didn't write the article, so how was that an attack on the proposed tax?  Are you now saying what can and cannot be posted, when did you become Admin(NOT). 
    • Your post was an attack on the tax   I didn’t  address or mention you in my reply. Just pointed  out the problems with the article you then told be I wasn’t invited.  In no way am I bullying anyone. The reverse is true if anything 
    • The problem is, I'm not sure what the going rate is for park land for festivals of this nature. I'm sure they are paying less than outfits pay for access to the big stadia - but these have better facilities and are normally better for public transport. I am also sure that Councils could press for more, and should do so, but of course there isn't really a shortage of council lands to exploit, so these entrepreneurs could go elsewhere. What I would like to know is how much of the suggested £440,000 this year for Southwark is net profit - what are their costs in getting and administering this let? If this is a gross figure then what do they actually have as 'surplus'? But at least we have a starting point now - even if it's a guess I'm thinking it's a reasonably informed one.
    • Looks like owner of Persepolis is opening something late summer in what was The dulwich Beer Dispensary spot…  Excited about that
