    Music! What are you listening to now?

    "Your love is killing me" is the most poignant track of the year, at least that I've heard. Pop music doesn't get more dramatic. "Taking chances" is terrific as well. All in all a good record. If you like raw, cathartic female indie music you might check out -- or perhaps you already know --...

    Lol I was thinking the same thing. Sticking out his tongue to give the impression that he's actually trying. Funny, that.

    The Iron Lady has passed away

    Lol, I was going to post that as well. Statement from Moz: Every move she made was charged by negativity; she destroyed the British manufacturing industry, she hated the miners, she hated the arts, she hated the Irish Freedom Fighters and allowed them to die, she hated the English poor and...
