Darkstone

What was his name? I pretty much started this thread just to crack that joke.

A great clip from "Smokey and the Bandit". This movie and the sequel were very high on my VHS rotation back in the day. Sally Field was as hot as FUCK! in the late 70s. I remember that around this time, "Truckers", or as we call them down here, "Truckies", were very prominent in popular culture (it's interesting also that Americans say "Biker", but Aussies say "Bikie"). C.B. Radios were all the rage. The movie "Convoy" and the single from it by C.W. McCall were huge hits.

If there was a song playing, then you must remember it. If there wasn't, then maybe the first song you heard after. Again, you must remember it. No details required. Mine is appropriate, because I did spin her round like a record baby! Who am I kidding, I was more in a state of shock that I was actually banging.

So it's a contender, but as I said, I think the subject matter is too dark for Eurovision.

Yeah, great track, but it seems a little too dark for Eurovision. Is this Norway's official entry?

No comments on this post? Maybe it was overshadowed by recent Political shenanigans or maybe my description was too vague? Suffice it to say, there are Boobs involved. Covered, but still magnificent.

Three names I've never heard of before. Tom Burr, Jason Vanek and Benny Lockhart. I'll have to investigate. Killer stuff! with great potential. "Soul in a Rose" is a standout.

To be fair, I've seen just as heated arguments and insulting posts in some music threads.

I could imagine back in the 1750's, Alpha and Glen having the same Trans-Atlantic argument about George Washington. And no.... Before anyone's panties get in a bunch, I'm not comparing Trump to Washington.

Again..

Snowflake post???

That's the point I was trying to make. I wasn't comparing Ashli Babbit to George Floyd. It was a comment on the different media coverage.

The two big winners out of all of this are China and Russia. They're pissing themselves with laughter at the moment. Like Trump or not, the fact of the matter is that he was voted President in 2016. Instead of his opponents accepting this, they have done nothing but hinder, criticize, and undermine him from day one. Hell, even before his inauguration he was getting hammered. What we saw at "Capitol Hill" was, I believe, a precursor to more organized unrest. The far right, militia group types have been looking for a legitimate excuse for decades for "Revolution". There are also many, many non radical Republicans who are angry. The way the President was treated over the last 4 years was disgraceful. He never had a chance. I'm sure everbody here is familiar with the name "George Floyd", but how often over the last 30 hours or so have you heard the name of the unarmed woman shot and killed by a Capitol Police Officer. It's "Ashli Babbit", BTW.

I don't know if that will do any good, but now you're getting it.

I'm sorry, but that's borderline hate speech.

Here's two tracks about my favourite subject. One, a Rap song and the other, a Country track. It goes to show that a deeply profound and meaningful subject such as this transcends all musical genres.

Apparently it is the first time it's been breached since the War of 1812 though.

Negative connotations aside, I've always thought that "Chlamydia" would make a lovely girls name.

Swanee - Temporary Heartache. Talking about Jimmy Barnes, this is a track from a band Fronted by Jimmy Barnes' brother, John Swan. "Swanee" were quite popular when I was a little tacker. I had this track on a compilation cassette called "Rocktrip '82". I posted this particular video for Doggy. John Swan may have been a great artist, but he had shit taste in Football Clubs.

If you're not familiar with them already, check out the "Australian Crawl" greatest hits.

James Reyne - Motor's Too Fast. James Reyne - Hammerhead. James Reyne from the Legendary Aussie band "Australian Crawl", released his debut solo album in '87. One of the great Aussie AOR albums. I just posted another track from it in the Election thread and it reminded me of these two. I'll have to post some "Australian Crawl" stuff. Their 80's stuff is as iconic as it gets when it comes to Australian music and there's plenty of it. He has a very unique voice, but it worked.

Nothing is obvious with you brotha.

This is going to get a lot worse before it gets better. 70 MILLION people voted for this guy! We're gonna see this shit all over the country. A lot of misinformation from both sides. Nobody's gonna what to believe. Bigger Empires than the US have come and gone. Are we witnessing the fall of Rome?

C'mon Kouros, you must know that this story is from Bush/Gore 2000 and highly dubious at that.

The shit is really hitting the fan now! Footage from Congress is unbelievable!
