You know how when you’re really little you think that your family is a template for the world? Like, this is how parents are, this is what ‘holiday’ means. But as you get older you realise that’s not true. You figure out the difference between family traditions and cultural traditions and even broader group behaviours. […]

Me: [John Carter of Mars] reminded me forcibly of Flash Gordon. Arkem: He is the saviour of the universe! Me: He has a song and everything. In fact, if you say the word ‘flash’ in any context near Greg C or I we both sing, ‘ah-ah’ reflexively. When I was sick once at about age […]

I am going to see these guys play in a few weeks. Arkem says it would have been cooler to see them twenty five years ago. Which is true. Of course he was an infant then, so I’m not sure he would have appreciated it.

All the thoughts you never see / You are always thinking Look for love in evidence / That you’re worth keeping As far as I can tell there isn’t an official video clip for this song, but this one is sort of a love letter to the earth and includes a guy conducting the ocean. […]

If you read the lyrics of this song literally rather than metaphorically then you could consider this the running refrain of the main characters of Drink Me. It’s also the first of a long line of songs in this playlist that include the word ‘bad’ in the title. Playlist link here.

This is a song that, it turns out, very few people know by name. I am weirdly fond of it. Partly because the band is the Teddybears (who are Swedish and strange and for some reason tend to be pictured with the heads of bears…) and partly because the chorus gets stuck in my head, […]

Cause I feel like I’m the worst So I always act like I’m the best I’m gonna live, I’m gonna fly, I’m gonna fail, I’m gonna die. Alternate visuals courtesy of multiKitten and Sherlock this time. Link to playlist here.

We’re making a slight detour from the actual order of the playlist because this song has been stuck in my head all week and I needed to share that with you. Because I’m nice. Thoughtful. All those good things. And because someone made this fanvid for it that’s the bestest thing ever. If you’re a sci-fi […]
