I don't have a video to make but I could do; that's the point.

I'd love to be mates with Grimes IRL, but not LDR tho, I imagine she'd be very trying.

[EighteenSixty7]

About Time by Sabrina Claudio is brilliant.

This. 

Grimes is pretty much as infallible as a pop star can be IMHO. I’ve got zilch against LDR from the little I know of her, but she seems to be more doing the ‘pop star as persona’ (or is it the other way round?) thing - nothing wrong with that - as opposed to CB, who just seems genuinely naturally fucking awesome.

I mean, they seem completely different lifestyles. Lizzy would be all soirées and cocktails while Claire would be all MMORPG’s and bubble tea. Either would be trying - I don’t know how anyone has friends.

Been a while since you posted , did I summon you by eating three and a half naans with my tea this evening? (the little ones, obviously, I'm not a complete monster)

Perhaps!

Although what I really need to talk to you about is Moana. You were right. It’s fabulous and I’m obsessed, maybe more than Mini-Woffy.

Aha then it may have been the combination of the naan and the fact I bought Moana on blu-ray on Friday and was watching it last night whilst I was cooking the curry to go with said naan!

Moana soundtrack is lit af, one of Disney's best ever. Now that you're sold on the excellence of Lin Manuel Miranda, your next stop is Hamilton

Off to see that in a fortnight.  A bit torn as to whether to listen to the album in advance or not.

And yeah, I would, musicals are more enjoyable when you know the music ahead of time, yeah? It's that science ting where your brain likes music more when it knows it... or something.

[When Jokers Attack]

New Neil Young is out there.

That's the case to do it.....but the case against is the plot spoilers (regarding the life of a bloke who died 200 years ago).

Three and a half naans, Amy? You're insane.

For the past few days I've had an earworm of You're Welcome that morphs into Dancing In The Moonlight halfway through.

PLEASE MAKE IT STOP!

Towers of London are back! Worried that their very presence and music is completely irrelevant these days, they've also released their video in 4:3 so we can watch it on our old TVs that we threw away around the time anyone gave a shit about Towers Of London.

Saw this played during the ad-break of Sunday Brunch yesterday and was laughing my head off.

Weirdly I was already aware of Hamilton & L-MM...and that goofy wedding video of his on YouTube, but didn’t realise he’d done the Moana songs until, like an aging nerd, I was watching the Making of Moana and saw him waving his hands around conducting The Rock. 

Watched it again tonight with Wee Woffy. 

That closing sequence of Moana v Taka...becoming Te Fiti. Holy naanbread...

I've been listening thru my 2017 highlights for the past week or so to decide my final positions. Miguel this Friday is the only new release I'm waiting on.
