  3. VARIOUS ARTISTS
    Anthology Of British Rock (The Pye Years - A Compleat Collection)
    1985 U.S. 2xLP pressing

    Bought this from a thrift store this morning.
    The whole first side (and the first song of side B) is all David Bowie, and it’s got other great songs by Donovan, Sandie Shaw, The Kinks, and Status Quo amongst others.

    Pretty solid $1 find, man.
    Cool little compilation.

    The two Donovan tunes are without question his two best songs, IMO.

  4. #Iran #USA #Hormuz
    It has now become appropriate to re-name the Strait of Hormuz " Schrodinger Strait" because now, a song by #Donovan applies:

    First the Strait is open
    Then it is not open
    Then it is

    First the Strait is open
    Then it is not open
    Then it is

    O Juanita!

  5. I'll agree with #TimHoward and #Donovan, MLS is defensively poor because best signings are attackers, not defenders.

    It is done this way because they need to sell seats with stars, but at least the tide is slowly equilibrating (Lloris, Alba, etc).

    Until they add relegation, to me it will be always an inferior, C-Class, entertainment-driven, retirement sunday league.

    What goes on? I really wanna know
    What goes on all around me

    Between lost belief and gross fear
    Have you any idea how much you have?
    Not quite nothing and not quite all!"

  11. Alfonso Cuarón – „Children of Men“ (2006)

    Eine Welt ohne Kinder hat keine Zukunft. Das ist kein Sci-Fi zum Abschalten, sondern ein Film, der uns heute noch unangenehm nahe geht. Flüchtlingslager, Ausnahmezustand, nur Hoffnung im Gepäck. Alfonso Cuarón mixt Action, Politik und Popkultur zu einem Jetzt-Film, der nicht tröstet, sondern wach macht. Kurz Luft holen. Dann ansehen! (ARTE, Wh.)

  16. "Knowing her fate
    Atlantis sent out ships to all corners of the Earth
    On board were the Twelve
    The poet, the physician, the farmer, the scientist, the magician
    And the other so-called gods of our legends
    Though gods they were

    And as the elders of our time choose to remain blind
    Let us rejoice, and let us sing, and dance
    And ring in the new
    Hail, Atlantis!"
