End any of these with “Ooh I get the shivers” to instantly create a Des’ree song.

I remember hearing about this in the run up and being very excited, and very disappointed it never materialised.

I always assumed it had failed rather than actually worked but just looked shit.

Same, thought they lied and was disappointed

I genuinely have no memory of this supposed river of fire.

I did a lo-fi phone video recording of this for a pal so here it is as mentioned upthread. My nu metal band’s 2001 demo Groin Of Metal. I was going to do a reaction video but it was just too humiliating.

Particularly bad things:

All of it sounds like a worse version of Pantera mixed with someone like hedPE.

About half way through listening to it I remembered that the second song was written about our singers feelings after 9/11. I fear it is at best naïve, at worst…probably pro war?! It’s called Less Talk More Action :grimacing:

The third song has a ska breakdown. It’s not good. In fact I would go so far as to say that it’s probably offensive.

I think everyone shared a single Boss Metalzone pedal, before it was part of the covid vaccine.

It was nearly called ‘Putting The Pants On Pantera’ which is…about the same.

This can’t possibly live up to my imagination, I’ll leave it there I think.

Been helping my mum clear out her attic and found a load of old school books. In year 7 English I wrote a story about stealing a pair of jeans when I was out shopping with my friends Beyoncé and Kelly. I was the Michelle of my own story :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Also I had to write a biography of a hero for year 8 English and wrote about Che Guevara even though I doubt I knew anything about the guy before that point that wasn’t written on my brother’s Che t-shirt

My folder for GCSE art/design.

(The “Liam” label is due to a guy in our class called, yep, Liam, who looked a bit like Beaker, rather than being anything to do with the Oasis pic.)

Was a repurposed fold-out board for game of some sort.

I’ve basically got an almost infinite amount of stuff that could go in this thread. Nothing hugely interesting. Just that I accumulated and kept almost everything ever until about five years ago, then had a MASSIVE clear-out phase, but to enable me to chuck stuff away without having a minor mental meltdown I have to take a photo of it, and then I’m fine to punt it. Some sort of fear of forgetting thing going on.

I miss creative writing at school so much. They stopped doing it for us at around year 9, just as I’d discovered the joy of writing myself as a background character in my stories and having characters talk about how much of a dork I was
