    mick hucknall dying by choking on his own vomit after a Babycham binge... its not happened yet, but when it does it will be the most beautiful thing in music... until then i think it might be the guitar solo of Midlake's - Head Home... (2.49 into this video ... which gives me goose bumps every time... and it makes me do the guitar face. :)

    LOL at your hatred for Mick Hucknall!!!

    Hard to argue with that one, that piano sends shivers down my spine.

    My mother has recently become the minister of a church and they have a load of pianos as well as an organ in there. When it was empty the other week I played Chloe Dancer on one of the pianos. The acoustics in the place were amazing. It was fucking cool :D

    Of course, there's a lot to be said for the ironic beauty of playing songs about prostitutes and junkies in a church :o

    That made me laugh :)

    The first time I ever heard The Soulsavers Revival. I love that song but I wish I could go back to the first time I heard it.

    I love that song like I love my own right hand... I had no idea what to expect from Lanegan/Soulsavers, but as soon as I heard Revival, I knew it was gonna be great.
    Smokey Robinson constantly looks like he's trying to act natural after being accused of farting.

    I think part of the beauty of that song was having no clue what to expect. You put the album on, Revival comes on and hits you like a train....but an amazing train. Amazing album and unbelievable song!
