Yeah, don't you just hate movies that affect your visual senses.

Seconded. Except for their Eurovision song this year, it's horrible. BWO should have won!

Oh, wholeheartedly seconded.

Having a nice job.

Cover songs.

I've been listening to them all too much lately, thanks to finally having a computer that has listenable sounds. Tori Amos is an ace - I like her version of Leonard Cohen's Famous Blue Raincoat even better than the original, and she has also made amazing covers of songs like Smells Like Teenspirit and Like A Prayer. (I like them better than the originals too, but some might consider that a disgrace.

)

But, my favourite has to be the GB Ukulele Orchestra and their cover of Kate Bush's Wuthering Heights. It made me laugh so hard I cried. It's priceless.

Lommy, that Wuthering Heights cover is hilarious!

I assign having less than 24 hours left to wait for something you've looked forward to for over a month.
