5. Prodigy - Breathe
4. Deee-Lite - Groove Is In The Heart
3. Utah Saints - Something Good
2. alt-J - Hunger Of The Pine
1. Jamie xx - Girl

BM: Bowie - Young Americans

Also liked: Hits From A Bong, Gold Digger

Normally I just ignore noms which don't fit the theme, but 'Young Americans' just ticked all my boxes for the Billy Madison.
One of Bowies's worst singles - a dead set stinker - and no samples.

"Crazy" is a good song, but we had that already. Finished 2nd, I think...
I get the billy for not following the theme properly, and I'll cop that. But I really like the song. Far from his worst. I reckon its in his top 10, but its not a "hit", its a grower. The more you listen the better it gets. It is quietly heartbreaking.

You need to be totally hammered to spend a week in The Bool.

I fear for your safety.
Mate, May carnival is not to be missed, just amazing. Go with the same mates (20yrs) stay in the same pub in Port Fairy. Actually have a runner this year. Bought into an older flat horse we are turning into a jumper. Absolutely ******* pumped!! 46 feel 26

I've been away too long. Totally forgot it was the carnival. Note not to ring the old man this week. Great week. Have had runners myself. Done nothing.

Plus you're staying in my home town of Port Fairy which is awesome so you're doing it the right way. Which pub?

Good luck btw.

The Star of the West. Joey puts the buses on so we just roll downstairs and out the door. He owns the Oak as well now. No doubt we'll stagger up the road to The Stump at some stage, great open fire.

Star is the best. Hopefully he can do something with the Oak. What a shithole.

Earliest drinking memories are of the Stump. So many great nights there.
