# You're damn right he's right.
Just gotta up my fear consumption quotient so I can fear the future too.

# I was quoting Matt Johnson.
Since the other night when people were talking about 'best song ever', I've been listening to the The a lot.
Best lyricist ever imho.
So, so prescient, etc...

and here's a link if you're so mad you've never checked him out:
www.youtube.com/artist?a=GxdCwVVULXcgHoShXLgfSsbDSJ3Licqb&feature=watch_video_title

scroll down to 'perfect' - best song evah

3rd edit: not the best version, though. Bear with me and I''l find it...

# Sir, You're a star.
Matt Johnson rules. Utterly.

# I'm glad you agree,
astoundingly under-appreciated artist.

I don't even usually concern myself with whatever some singer is blathering about.

But this man is brilliant.

# Now, that's frustrating.
It took more than 10 minutes to load that link, and it turned out to be an index of links.

I know I've droned on about Matt Johnson's "Heartland", "Sweet Bird of Truth", "This Is The Day" and so on, and about how prescient he is, but I had no idea he was still pumping stuff out.
Maybe I need to just give it some buffering time.

# 10 minutes?
Are you on dial-up?

I'm in deepest, darkest, mid-wales and it pops up like my cock did when I was 17.

# I'm sitting up in bed,
headphones on, listening to teh Teh back catalogue, imagining 2 or 3 other b3tans doing the same.
Wondering how all those years slipped by, un-remarked upon and only latterly appreciated.

# Now this,
reminds me of my best friend from school. He was mad for this band when we were nippers.
Only school friend I'm still in touch with...

edit: just saw your sig - can't imagine yet how that must feel, must be awful. Hope you have people around to help ameliorate the pain.

# Not as such.
I'm on my employers' wi-fi connection, which I suppose I ought to be grateful for, but even the most straightforward F5 is quite a hefty undertaking.
And trying to see a youtube clip? Fucking hell, see you next Tuesday.

# TAKE THOSE HEADPHONES OFF, YOU DRUNKEN ARSE !
The The were almost deliberately trebly on purpose. Hardly any bass.

But if someone just happens to talk nonsense, I find it hard to pretend otherwise.

# I was in no way upset by your comments,
but thx for your apology anyway.
I think I've been witness to enough of your sardonic wit not to take offence.
Anyhoo - gonna line up some the the on youtube and climb the wooden hill to beddington.

my daughter's not yet 2, so not quite up to that kind of confusing post-modernist interjection.

But my 3yr old niece called me mouldy-head today when I cut my hair short, because she got confused with baldy-head.

# brilliant
2 years ago, I wouldn't have given a crap, but having your own child makes all those clichés come true.
These days I am actually interested in what other people's children do.
