• I keep saying Brandon Flowers is like the new Freddie Mercury, which led ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
velvet to say, "Brandon Flowers is the Jesus Queen of Latter Day Saints."
• I've sent a few of you this interview about the Police, but it really must be read to believed. Even if you don't like the Police at all - actually, especially if you don't like the Police and/or Sting, you should read it. They basically go for each others' throats and it's quite like watching Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? I wish there was one for Morrissey and Marr, or Jason Pierce and Pete Kember.
edit:
• Every time I end a contract I have a huge collection of mp3s that I haven't always listened through. I keep meaning to sort through them and failing. I spent about an hour doing so yesterday, mostly just deleting stuff I already have downloaded - or that Reg has - and importing stuff into iTunes and backing it up on my external hard drive.
• On that note, until yesterday I had no Explosions in the Sky on my machine. This horrifies me and I am making up for it.
• I got a Sansa Clip thing for music, which is cool in that it allows ratings but I don't have it in auto-sync mode, so I can't get the ratings to import back over. Or maybe I'm just missing something. Like a manual, since it was refurb.
• I really should use headphones when I'm mixing music, as my speakers are pieces of shite.

Revolver: Synchronicity II is easily the best song about the Loch Ness monster to ever appear on a Number One album. Explain.
Sting: It's about two separate but synchronistic events. One, the Loch Ness monster...
Stewart Copeland: ...which is synchronous with...
Sting: um... my penis?
Stewart Copeland: Yes, yes, yes! A little boasting there, perhaps; a little self-aggrandisation, but what the hell, we'll let that slide. I remember we argued about the tempo of this one.
Revolver: Wait a minute. Sting, what's the Loch Ness monster really synchronous with?
Stewart Copeland: His penis, he answered that question.
Sting: Yes, my dick! It's another monstrous, hidden thing from Northern Britain.
Stewart Copeland: That comes out of the slime and that no one has ever seen, or believes in!
Sting: And the Japanese are fascinated by it!
Stewart Copeland: And a photograph of which would be worth a lot of money!
