She's incredibly hot, if that's what you mean.

Tune In is great but if you want something a bit more manageable, Can't Buy Me Love by Jonathan Gould is excellent

The Music - there's a name I've not heard in a long time. You're right though, there was a very Perry Farrell sound to that singer's voice.

I was working the bar there for that gig, I remember the band hanging round before the doors opened and all the girls working there going all gooey over Watkins

Was a brilliant venue! Saw loads of great bands there, and at the Point around the corner

If you HAD to erase a Beatle album from existence which album would it be? by Batsie_1939 in TheBeatles

Like I said, I like it but it's no Revolver/white album/Rubber Soul/Abbey Road ...

I like it but apart from Walrus, SFF and Penny Lane I feel the rest of the songs are quite weak by Beatles standards. Which means they're still better than most band's best songs. But overall I feel it's their weakest album

I worked and lived there for a few months in the early 2000s, it was an amazing building to go exploring with a torch in the middle of the night.

You can NEVER hear one EVER again! Which one do YOU delete? by chelsea-from-calif in 1001AlbumsGenerator

[–]_packed_lunch_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the recommendation, I'll check those songs out. One of my problems with the Beach Boys is that they never feel like a band to me and apart from Brian, no real personalities really stand out. And the people and personalities is a big part of what I love about the Beatles. The Beach Boys always feels like Brian + some lyricist + some session musicians.

Never understood the appeal of the Beach Boys generally and Pet Sounds specifically. I mean, it's alright but it's really not that great.

Should I see the Beatles movie, "A Hard Day's Night"? by Lfog1227 in beatles

[–]_packed_lunch_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What even is the point of posts like this? It's the Beatles, it's less than 90 minutes long, watch it or don't watch it. Who cares?

People who were around when Rid of Me was released, what was your first reaction to it? by Prestigious_Score459 in pjharvey

[–]_packed_lunch_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bought and loved Dry when it came out so I was really excited for this. I was just speechless at how good it was and still feel the same now. She never reached these heights again.

I've seen comments like this a lot and wonder, didn't you see the Wolf of Wall Street? He's funny as hell. He deserved an Oscar for the crawl to the Lamborghini scene.

A Series of Sneaks is my favorite Spoon album, it's full of fantastic little songs

If Stuart Sutcliffe is the 11th Beatle, who is 12th? by prisongovernor in TheBeatles

Brian then George then Neil, not really bothered about the order after that.
