Goddammit, I had this stupid song stuck in my head for like two days and I didn't know what the fuck it was, only that it most likely had to be from the '70s, Macca/Bee Gees-influenced, and highly popular since they still play the motherfucker on the radio. Shit got old real quick and I thought the only way to exorcise it was to find out the "artist" (everybody's a fucking artist in the music biz, isn't it) and title. Turned out to be Gilbert O'Sullivan's "Alone Again (Naturally)". Now I want to shoot myself in the face.

The late, great Jonathan Demme sure had fine taste in music. To name a few: Robyn Hitchcock, Neil Young, Talking Heads, Colin Newman, The Fall, and... Fac 321...

The Eroica? Wow, I grew up with it. Same conductor and orchestra, actually. (Fun fact: Lou Reed claimed there were bits of it on Metal Machine Music. To this day, very few people believe him. :)) On the other hand, there wasn't a REAL oldies station while I was growing up. Most of the blissful stuff you lucky sumbitches just took for granted, from Patty Duke's "The End Of The World" to the Count Five's "Psychotic Reaction", was something I started absorbing like a starved-to-near-death sponge when Al Gore invented the interwebs. Sure, there were stations playing "old" stuff, but not from the rock & roll & pop lineage/continuum; it was Spanish and Italian AM hits from the '60s and '70s, which, if you haven't heard, consider yourselves truly blessed - that shit makes ABBA sound like Merzbow on a seriously angry day. |

Whatcha waiting for, dammit? :) |
the thing with the eroica is to find someone who plays it with energy but doesn't play it too fast.
heavy > nervous |

Your sarcasm detector needs a tuneup. I was kidding and giving symbols a ribbing akin to “deep cut, dude” because of its well known status. |
