  1. Gregor Samsa

    Radiohead Appreciation Thread

    Hmm.. Not sure actually. It was played live in that time period. Perhaps Thom hadn't finished his lyrical alterations by that point.

    Is Jet The Best Australian Band???????

    :) Dirty Three and Augie March are my favourite Australian bands... Although the Go-Betweens are starting to grow on me, figuratively.

    Rove live getting a bit retarded?

    Of course, if it wasn't for John, Rove would still be sweeping rats and attempting to avoid bubonic plague at the public access station. :D I never got the appeal of Rove. How sad that we live in a society which (generally) shuns someone witty like Shaun Micallef (Micallef Tonight, we hardly...

    Who Likes the Beatles?

    Elvis is far more sappy, at least his later material. Try these songs for supposed Beatles 'sappiness' -Helter Skelter -I Want You (She's So Heavy) -Tomorrow Never Knows -Hey Bulldog -Yer Blues -While My Guitar Gently Weeps -Revolution (Single version) Its all opinion, but still...

    Ban on Gay Marriage

    That isn't the point though. Of course heterosexuals and homosexuals have 'equal rights', in that regard. The difference however, is in preference, that is, that heterosexuals generally do marry members of the opposite sex, whereas the preference of homosexuals is 'legally' excluded. In that...

    Greens new policies

    But thats the point. These attacks are part of a scare campaign being reported throughout much of the Australian press. (And emphasised in News Corp publications, unsurprisingly.) Theres much difference between examining options and 'ecstasy for all', as some would have it. Sadly, this...

    lyrics

    Augie March-The Night Is A Blackbird Well it tastes like a Sunday, There should be music in the front room, and the markets a'milling with the people in the afternoon. And there's a question to be asked if you're drinking alone, It's what horse were you thrown from which riderless goes...

    lyrics

    Augie March-Sunset Studies You are the queen of a dust bowl, Ex to a crier in a town of ashes, This is what happens when a great love crashes. Tonight you let me see you, For the first time, in a long time, For the first time, in a time Without the fear of going blind, without the fear...
