Tesseraction posted:That song is called Song 2 because it was such a low effort song that they didn't even bother to name it properly and then it sold gang busters lol. quite ironic that damon albarn is such an artisté that his most famous work was written on the back of a fag pocket

I'm pretty sure it was the song on the fifa 98 title screen. Used to leave it running to listen to it.

DeadButDelicious posted:I distinctly remember Song 2 being used for trailers for Starship Troopers but I may be going senile in my old age of mid-30s. I remember scenes of the bugs swarming at the Klendathu drop... Oh, they definitely used it in the trailer, which seemed to be as confused about the movie being a satires as your average common blue-ticket Tweeter is

I know which one it will be, because it always is, but I'm imagining the fifa title screen having a guitar ballad about 14th century peasants overthrowing their lord or an accordion solo about Spanish anarchists or something.

You know what the true scandal of 90s music is? Stuart Murdoch spending the past 30 years pretending he didn't actually know what an Arab Strap was. It's right there in the lyrics, Stuart, it's fine.

The drummer from Blur these days is a Lab Cllr in Norwich and dead set *for* the pedestrianisation of the city centre, which I find quite funny.

Used to leave it running to listen to it. https://youtu.be/2igfndqKnmk?feature=shared I had a burnt copy from the car boot so mine would freeze and stutter its way through the intro video and ruin the song  It’s alright though because I didn’t really like football and only ever played it with my mates where we’d try and see how much nonsense we could get away with in matches like racing to get as many players as possible sent off

My bestie and I were too cool to get involved in the Oasis-Blur fight and decided we liked Pulp instead. Blur is definitely more interesting to listen to these days than Oasis though. Don't think I'd seek out an Oasis song on purpose.

Starbucks posted:Not sure, but people forget that traders need access to Dixons.  Deliveries get access at set times, disabled people and emergency services get access at all times (neutralizing one of the main bad faith counters), and the occasional vehicle stops the place being filled with organ grinders and religious shouters and people selling knock off Frozen and Baby Yoda balloons, while allowing cafe seating in the other bit.

I think he's just always been a tory, but he got into cheesemaking as part of purchasing a farm and I believe he and David Cameron were neighbours.

Failed Imagineer posted:Turns out they must have written Country House as an aspirational anthem True story: They wrote that song smoking some incredible organic 5x Skunk grown by a fabled SW grower while sat in their manager's garden. I was lucky enough to be able to tap into that source from 04--06, and it was loving incredible. The old hippy grower used to collect seaweed from the shore, abseil down cliffs to harvest seagull droppings and go caving to collect bat droppings to make his own organic compost. I don't think I've come across such a dedicated grower before or since. He even looked like a wizard

If I found out I was neighbours with Cameron I probably wouldn't move but I would absolutely post turds through the letterbox. Also I'd be a proper rich oval office

The annoying thing about that protest is he doesn't give a gently caress; Brexit was merely his pathway to power as we saw when he resigned in protest over May's deal and then passed exactly that deal once he was PM. Now if there was a flag that specifically represented child support payments...
