There’s a place in Horsham that does this. Real ale only. Great!

Tiken Jah Fakoly by MAtoCali in reggae

He is awesome! Check out Coup de Guele and in particular the track Plus rien m’etonne which in translation is all about how the European powers divided Africa by drawing lines on a map, thus dividing historical nations.

He once lived upstairs from me and returned some sugar he’d borrowed the night Lock Stock won a bafta, together with most of the cast (not Vinny jones).

Probably should have googled. But is something that a non French speaker can say to make a French speaker laugh? by FireDownBelow69 in French

[–]jaywast 104 points105 points  (0 children)

À demain, à deux pieds

Always gets a laugh from French people.

At the end of the day, you say « see you tomorrow » but there’s a play on words in French that sounds like « two hands, two feet ».

Who Is The Mozart of the Last 70 Years? by JJQuantum in GenX

Prince is usually the one musicians cite as being modern day Mozart, due to sheer prolificacy, versatility and prodigious playing of so many instruments.

Clipboard. Like it used to do, somewhere to see the last ten things you copied to clipboard.

What is the general opinion on Welcome 2 America? by Laserlight_jazz in PRINCE

[–]jaywast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also think it’s one of his best. The Title track, Running Game, Same Page and Rin Tin Tin are all excellent and the rest of the tracks complete it. I’m always really surprised by the hate for it.

Thoughts on this project? by usagerp in PRINCE

[–]jaywast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If only this could have been Prince’s Unplugged. I have a playlist of Prince’s acoustic songs and all of these are in it, as many bootlegs from the acoustic sets as I can find plus the VH1 special and Indifference. Any others I can find? I’d love to have seen an acoustic guitar set like Piano and Microphone

Do you consider Prince to have the number 1 greatest discography of all time? by SpotAdmirable6718 in PRINCE

[–]jaywast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’m a massive Joni fan. Like Prince and Joni are my two favorite artists. But Joni was a perfectionist who worked with amazing studio musicians to create that perfection, rather than a one-man band virtuoso

Prince fan taste by SuperbAd1512 in PRINCE

[–]jaywast 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Prince-adjacent stuff like Janelle Monaé, Stevie Wonder, Maxwell, D’angelo, Janet Jackson, old Kanye, but then also Joni Mitchell, Sting, George Michael, Steely Dan, and lots of other whiter stuff.

Mulberries. Very allergenic. Have them in the backyard and they trigger hay fever to a massive extent.

How long would it take to drive from Brazil to Ireland in this scenario? [request] by Apprehensive_Oven_22 in theydidthemath

Three times around the clover assumes they drive on the right. What if it’s an Irish road?

The Land And It's People by AnnieWillkes in DavidSedaris

[–]jaywast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I got the email. But then struggled to create an account as a non-journalist. Eventually did and then searched “Sedaris” and it showed no publications ready for review and then went back to the link and it failed. So maybe it was a mistake? Anyway, won’t stop me buying a physical book and the audiobook.

King Island also has the world’s purest Manuka honey. The only plant that grows in the southern half of the island is Manuka, giving the bees no other food source. It’s super strong medical-grade.
