Fishbone! Fuck me, thatâs a blast from the past. I remember loving Sunless Saturday when it came out, but I donât think Iâve heard a single other song from them (aside from the b-side to that single).

Hope by The Smashing Pumpkins (a beautiful instrumental that wouldnât be out of place on an ambient album) was written back in 1985 / 1986 by a teenage Corgan.
pfft call yourself a fan and you didnât know Billy Corgan wrote the songs

In the song âWork Itâ by Missy Elliott, the reversed bit is âTi esrever dna ti pilf nwod gnaht ym tup iâ
which is the previous line âI put my thang down, flip it and reverse itâ in reverse
Always assumed it was a profanity / radio edit thing

I had a tape of Peter Gabrielâs So that my mumâs mate made from the LP but heâd never put the track titles on it. And when my dad was visiting once he heard it and thought it was great so asked me to copy it, which I did on my tape-to-tape.
I just titled all the songs after the obvious chorus line when I wrote the insert. Then years later I felt really guilty in case dad had made some embarrassing reference to a song by the wrong title. It wasnât until I finally got a copy of my own on CD cheap that I discovered those pretty much were all the names.

Desk is tiny compared to size of the room.

WOW!
Has it always been that way? Just wondering if it originally started in a very cramped room but the popularity forced them to recreate it as a set in this large space.

Only recently found out that the lyric âand nothing to get hung aboutâ from The Beatles âStrawberry Fields Foreverâ is literal, taken from Lennonâs childhood memory rumour that children would get hung if found in the grounds of Strawberry Field by members of the Salvation Army.
I always interpreted it to mean that itâs nothing to get emotionally hung up about it. Really like that line now, now that I know the context.

So⌠literally what is the point of it? Thought it was some cool shop or something. Instead itâs just a gig⌠but with a desk in the way
Is it bad that my first instinct is to be annoyed with Lennon for saying hung instead of hanged.
