    I am only 2 listens in but I cannot get past thinking this is "of its time" and gives me images of Europeans nightclubs or beachside parties with so many trendies with "big hair". In my notes after listening to the first 2 songs i wrote "Miami Vice" without even realising that "Crocketts...

    Very tough on Jota and will be a huge loss for us in the run in. Jota has got us out of so many games and his work rate will be sorely missed. As for the Robertson/Toney incident, I have to agree with everyone on here. At first I thought it was a stone cold pen. With my red glasses on I tried to...

    President Trump

    I am currently listening to "Dictatorland" by Paul Kenyon. Whilst it centres on the rape and theft of Africa's resources I couldn't help but draw comparisons, between the methods and outcomes of the African states featured, to those of Putin & Trump. Patronage to gain leverage, control of the...

    President Trump

    Nice use of local lingo, or is that a a word used in the Moscow suburbs And next week Putin wants Kazhakstan, perhaps next month parts of Moldova, early next year he wants the Baltic states. Not forgetting Poland which was once Russian and were nazi collaborators, so of course that will need...

    At one point I did ponder what this album would have sounded like had Phil Spector produced it. Or thought that they were trying to go for a wall of sound to replicate it. I did also think that perhaps Matt Bellamy may be a fan of Spinal Tap

    I was tempted to simply say...ditto After a few listens enjoyed the power of it but I almost felt a little disappointed. The fact that I did enjoy so much of it, but then there were the factors like Matts voice and the "formula" that detracted from it. I did enjoy much of the driving bass on...

    Not necessarily. Immediate emergency care is free to all, It would only be if admited to a ward for continued care that they "may" then be identified as a foreign national and details sought in order to try and obtain payment.....but then how do you go about getting theat if they may be living...

    Rishi Sunak

    Sorry AHT but I have to correct you a little there. there are many asylum seekers who may have been served with illegal entry papers and therefore be defacto "illegals" who have then claimed aslum. So just because they have claimed doesnt alter their "status" As for "free treatment on NHS"...

    My thoughts exactly....and you start listening to the quiet song and are just waiting for that big crash. Two listens in and besides bombastic I think @journolud is right, "Grandiose" is a great way to desribe them. I almost felt like they were trying to create some sort of anthem with every...

    Russian invasion of Ukraine

    The thing that comes to my mind when reading over the last few pages is the phrase, "Go hard or go home". Putin obviously failed with his 3 day SMO and has apparently recallibrated to going for control over his 4 new Russians oblasts to save face. Sadly I can see things going the same way as...

    Russian invasion of Ukraine

    I must admit I am partial to a little bit of Fox News now and then. It lightens my mood and is often comedy gold. I recall watching Tucker one night and almost spat my tea out when, without a hint of irony him being a presenter on Murdochs station, he referred to someone as a "greed monger"...

    Apart from hearing tracks in the radio I havent ever delved into Muse. Showing my membership of the FOC club I have often heard my nieces/nephews say how good they are (particularly live). ......they even put them on thir streaming devices (whatever they are) rather than good old 78's! I have...

    So I did give this the required 3 listens although I must admit to going all in on the first time through, until I got up to "Shadow Hand" and then realised how long I had to go. At that point I realised that I had enjoyed it in parts but that it did appear to start to become a marathon. The...

    Got exactly what we deserved from that game! And as was said a few posts ago, the myth of us playing well and being on form was firmly shown to be rubbish after that performance. The mistake for their 2nd goal was simply justice for the luck in getting our equaliser. It could well have been alot...

    Like many I think it is only "The Way It Is" that i have heard so going to be interesting. once again this thread is forcing me to get myself out of my musical rut. Away for a first listen before I suffer what i suspect will be a stressful night watching the match

    I would agree to a degree...in that I think the timing of the announcement is all about the transfer market. However, my take on it is that there was a view that transfers would be difficult if it was known and planned that Klopp was leaving at the end of the year. Any player talking with the...
