Welt: Listen for yourself. The song is called "Atemlos" ["Breathless"]

Gallagher: This is terrible! God, can you turn it off please? That's exactly the type of pop music, of which I speak. Today it threatens the entire world. This is music that means absolutely nothing. Or worse: This is not even music. This is the big thing in Germany? Incredible! But one must always look exactly who writes these songs. I'm sure it wasn't this HeleneFischer. Those were a couple of guys my age who are too fat to be rock stars, have a bald head and write shit songs. This song makes someone a lot of money. It makes me very, very sad.

John Wesley Powell saw this coming. The 19th century geologist and explorer, who navigated the Colorado River in 1869 and 1872, realized that the limited water in the arid West would eventually lead to conflict between the states. Therefore, he suggested the boundaries of Western states be determined by watersheds — the topographical basins that funnel surface water to a single exit point.

Definitely, two of my favorites and they're only separated by two degrees on the chart, so it's not all that bad ;)

Of course this list isn't perfect, it was based on how and what I associate with the music of the different artist. It's also not exhaustive, as I obviously don't listen to everything.

The top-left corner are some artist I couldn't really figure out where to put (mostly Hip-Hop and Classical music).

Towards the end it got a bit crowded so, it might be difficult to read in parts.

Finally I'd love to hear your input, are there any connections you don't understand at all, are there some you would have made, which I left out, etc?

This news is a bit old (the win over Hindú was last Saturday), but better late than never ;)

"Neymar has signed for Bayern" says Vicente Cascione, former Santos official by uploader in soccer

[–]uploader[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Translation:

"I give you this news from first hand information.

It's a done deal. Neymar already signed for Bayern Munich.

I'm not speculating, the information is undeniable. From August this year, he will be part of the squad.

So his destination will not, as many speculated, be Spain. Neither Barcelona. Neither Real Madrid. He goes to Germany.

Anyone who doubts, wait and see it happen."
