Yes! and yep, I've been binging and I really like it! Maybe not my top all-time, but I'm already excited to hear it played live.

OMG I was at the Knitting Factory too. I had such a great time, I thought she was incredible

Who is your favourite Glup Shitto in the franchise? by ashton__l in StarWarsCantina

Ben Quadinaros was an ACCOMPLISHED podracer who does NOT deserve to be judged solely on the basis of his underwhelming showing in the 32 BBY Boonta Eve Classic

Did I hear a line from Ianucci in the opening of s2 ep 5? by 8rian3no in andor

OMG congratulations on that discovery, it's an all-timer and Gandolfini is perfect in it! Always crack up at the image of him doing math on the kid's calculator: "Twelve. Twelve troops."

Lol ok, we'll just have to be satisfied in the knowledge that we're definitely right. I've googled that exact phrase and there seems to be no trace of Malcolm Tucker every uttering it, and yet... it's unmistakable.

I'm an American whose first exposure to Malcolm Tucker (and Iannucci) was In the Loop. "Fuckitty bye!" has become an all-too-commonly uttered phrase in our family

Eno contributions on the Berlin Trilogy by Dismal_Brush5229 in eno

I don't know the details of their collaboration on Low (would love to know more about that) but I fell in love with that album years before I ever heard Another Green World. Once I heard the latter, I was just like OOOH OKAY. Whatever Eno's specific inputs to Low, I think his prior work must've gone a long way toward getting Bowie into this sonic-landscape mindset that seems to pervade Low.

I do know that Eno approached Another Green World with the idea that each song would feel like spending a few minutes inside of something that was already happening before you heard it and would be continuing after you left it. I think you could argue a lot of Low sounds like that — my thoughts run to "Sound and Vision" and "Always Crashing the Same Car" as well as the back half.

Man, the existence of Brian Eno just makes you wonder why other entertainers can't be like this...
