To be a rock and not to roll
Quote of the moment:
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How ev'rything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.
Virgin Radio All Time Top 500 Number One: Stairway to Heaven - Led Zepplin.
Somewhat belated given that the chart ran over the week between Christmas and New Year, but I thought it would prove to Podgy that her buying a Stairway to Heaven poster was entirely justified, and indeed utterly necessary. Hopefully she'll also be jealous that she didn't get to listen to it :D
The Top Ten:
- LED ZEPPELIN - Stairway To Heaven
- U2 - One
- GUNS N ROSES - Sweet Child O Mine
- REM - Everybody Hurts
- ROBBIE WILLIAMS - Angels
- JOHN LENNON - Imagine
- QUEEN - Bohemian Rhapsody
- THE VERVE - Bitter Sweet Symphony
- EAGLES - Hotel California
- COLDPLAY - Trouble
Some good choices, though I'd have gone for Where The Streets Have No Name at 2 instead, but it only came in at 43! Bah humbug to all the wrinkled old voters :P
[Edit 23:34 - I take that back:
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you now
You got someone to blame
One is awesome :D]
Another piece of entertainment from Tesco yesterday: I saw the manager drop a four-pack of beer bottles... the wash hit both sides of the aisle, and he ran away ASAP because he had about 8 staff laughing at him!
I'm watching Jerry Springer - The Opera, and the tap-dancing Klu Klux Klansmen have just been on. Best... Opera... Ever... (I am, of course, videoing Jackie Brown).
I'm guessing from Emma's blog that Jim is back on the market too... Hugs all round!

Er... Ok. Will m8 told me to put this up. It's what I said to him on MSN. But... I didn't want to, coz Podgy m8, I think you might JUST come and kill me. But hey... I'm gonna say it anyway.
Basically, I downloaded "Stairway to Heaven" and had a listen to it... And er, I didn't really like it:\ [shuts eyes and crouches in case any frying pans come flying from Canada] I dunno, maybe I just ain't in that kinda mood... Y'know? But yes. So Podgy m8, please don't kill me!! Kill Will m8 instead!! HEHE!!
Not just that, she quit it halfway through because she didn't like it!
Sacre nome de fromage!
