Meanwhile downloading secret of mana for my phone may have been the smartest decision I've made.

I don't hate you.

I just thought you of all people would have got my communication of Cheers and deciphered it correctly to mean "Your votes are tremendous, but not as tremendous as the cheesecake I'm eating".

I wish you all the best with your future endeavours.

Listening through the playlist now, that Life In A Northern Town song is a good song but it was released in 1985 so it won't be getting any votes from me.

Agree

The RHCP discography is a good illustration of the dichotomy of Song Contest

They were a great band from 1985 to 1991. They made a great music. You're right, the song-writing wasn't always good, but what they did was unique, original, fresh and kicked arse.

I was aghast when I first heard the singles from Californication. I couldn't believe how the ultimate party band had become so boring and easy-listening. And it's been that way ever since. I mean, I can see how people would like it. Objectively speaking, their song-writing has improved. But their music sucks.

I feel the same way about a lot of the Song Contest noms. Some people seem to opt for "good songs" which aren't really anything special, musically speaking. Other people nominate songs which get rubbished by some folks, but I find them interesting to listen to.

Californication is my favourite RHCP album, just BANGA after BANGA with barely a bad song on it, it was the soundtrack to my summer travelling around Europe in 2000 and was huge everywhere at the time. I reckon that was their peak as a band rather than BSSM which is good but overrated for mine.

The next post I make on BigFooty will be my 2000th. I would like to use it wisely and not waste it on something frivolous, so if anybody has ever wanted to abuse me, say I have s**t taste in music, remind me about those cheating umpires in 2016, wish ill health upon me, call me a campaigner et cetera, now's your chance; I won't be responding.
