Allegedly Yanis Varoufakis’ future wife is the girl to whom the song refers (who did indeed come from Greece to study at St Martin’s College).

Woke up with this song in my head yesterday. It has yet to budge.

Wowee Zowee is such a great album!

Also, I wonder how Spanos County voted this election Tongue

Santander’s post above reminded me to listen to The Replacements for the first time in a bit. Such a great band.

Saturday was 20 years since Stephen Malkmus’ self-titled debut solo effort was released. My personal favourite from the album:

I am not totally sure what the surreal long collection of iconic characters that is the lyrics of Desolation Row actually means, but this song remains a lyrical masterpiece.

Perhaps my favourite Dylan song. Certainly his supreme poetic achievement (which is of course, by Dylan’s standards, saying a lot), and one of the most epic album closers of all time.

As promised. This song talks about letting (anger) loose, and its music is very powerful to just let loose on. Also, the video of St. Anger is amazing. Prayers for the inmates of San Quentin.
St. Anger rocks.

Only in the most literal sense. Metallica is horrible. I do, however, respect Lulu as a project.

I was going to say that it is quite fitting that it is filmed in a prison (aside from the attempt to rip off Johnny Cash): both penitentiaries and Metallica are sweaty, disgusting and mindlessly violent.

Paging Sol who made me become a lover of this song.

Nice! You are slowly being reeducated Tongue

Seriously, a great song for an album which will always have a special place in my heart as one of the first I really connected with.

Well, you asked for this.

Not being able to find a video of the full S&M2 I went with its greatest song - All Within My Hands.

I’m starting to suspect that this is just one big bait-and-switch operation...

A paranoid masterpiece with some of Dylan’s most deliciously cutting lyrics.
