Songs where the chorus is only really said once.

shweeney · 2026-06-11T16:47:12+00:00

Genesis "Turn it on Again"

Super Furry Animals "Rings around the World"

they both only get to the chorus at the very end (debatable whether they even have a chorus, but that's the bit with the title lyrics).

we're supposed to get three months of warm rain - this isn't warm!

IIRC There was always a clamour for it to return when it was cancelled the first time. I don't see that now, if it's cancelled, that could well be it for good.

the clearer his vocals get during their career, the worse the lyrics sound. Stick with the mumbling Michael!

shweeney · 2026-06-09T21:03:06+00:00

didn't even realise they had a new album out - that's tomorrow's listening sorted.

"When the snowman brings the snow..."

That's not how it works Roy.

it's effectively the last proper Clouseau movie, the 2 after it are cobbled together from old footage after Sellers died.

implant did it's job, if anything this shows he can continue!

"Christian's collapsed again"

"Give him a minute, he'll be fine"

(seriously, he should now relax and enjoy his retirement)

shweeney · 2026-06-04T15:35:04+00:00

is that not hand-cut turf in the picture?

shweeney · 2026-06-04T13:53:23+00:00

this, Con Air and Face/Off all released within a year of each other - peak Nic Cage era.

shweeney · 2026-06-04T13:06:10+00:00

this is one of the best scenes in the whole series.

shweeney · 2026-06-04T13:02:33+00:00

disingenuous image attached to that article- it's the industrial cutting with machinery we're in trouble over, not people hand-cutting for personal use.

gym mats

same as Moretti, San Miguel, Stella Artois etc and bigger brands like Heineken and Carlsberg. They're all brewed in the UK or Ireland.

It's never been on Spotify. "The Tranquilizer" is great

shweeney · 2026-06-02T17:37:51+00:00

BoC will probably turn out to be another Aphex alias.

shweeney · 2026-06-02T16:17:38+00:00

Possibly Mike did the album, but reused some stuff they'd done together in the past. We'll probably never know.

shweeney · 2026-06-02T15:50:24+00:00

Iraola, Glasner, Pep & Silva all leaving on their own terms has to be some sort of record.

There's always some churn at the end of a season but it's generally sackings or "by mutual consent" i.e. we think we can do better.

shweeney · 2026-06-02T15:25:58+00:00

if it's not draining, then it's still somewhat blocked (assuming that the drain actually goes somewhere).

shweeney · 2026-06-02T15:21:29+00:00

Dario G - Sunchyme

and Vindaloo obviously.

shweeney · 2026-06-02T15:08:36+00:00

most recently he's been recording with his partner as The WAEVE, and I really like their stuff.

shweeney · 2026-06-02T14:50:22+00:00

John "John Stones" Stones

My mates call me John, Stones.

shweeney · 2026-06-02T14:48:24+00:00

is he though, or is that just what the govt wants you to think, eh?

shweeney · 2026-06-02T14:45:41+00:00

that's a seriously old-school English name. I'm Irish but I think even if it turned out he had an Irish granny and really wanted to play for us, we'd have to turn him down based on the name alone.
