No, I was talking about Old55, because he came up with the SFers Top Ten and the Golden Oldies one... but the Golden Oldies Top Ten is actually a Top Forty so never mind, my mistake And I'm not much into healthy breakfasts

There Is A Light That Never Goes Out -- Noel Gallagher

Nothing Lasts Forever -- Echo & The Bunnymen

Too old to rock'n'roll, too young to die -- Jethro Tull

Viaene Right? This SFer likes to pioneer new Top Ten ideas

Happiness -- Kasabian

I read Martin's reply and thought 'Aw, I thought it was about me' Anyway, people like to complain about Tim's hair. This SFer is obsessed with one certain kind of alcoholic beverage.

It's a holiday where you live? I didn't even realise it was today, or this time of year for that matter

True, but I think Otokichi was joking and that's why he used quotation marks You've been in a police line-up

Us and Them -- Pink Floyd

It's sad to think that I've got friends that couldn't participate for more than 40 minutes even if they wanted to because they just don't have any albums

Child in Time -- Deep Purple

I wasted £1.30 on an espresso, thinking it'd be like a latte macchiato. I didn't realise an espresso could pretty much fit in a shot glass

Ah, that's too bad

Minimally punctuated? I count eight commas! But I'd never argue with the master of long complicated is-this-even-English sentences That album sounds like it would've been pretty interesting. You didn't even record your own version of the song, only rehearsed it?

You have a valid point. However, in the face of all the challenges today's children will likely face in the future, do we really want to raise a generation of adults so bent on peace and without a true understanding of what life can be and, more often than this should be the case given that we are a highly evolved species, is like, that they can easily be swayed and corrupted, if not controlled, by a minority that did not grow up with the values you and I would like to instill in our children, but instead with a reckless disposition and an insatiable thirst for power? I believe it is necessary to equip today's children with a strong sense of right and wrong, but I also believe that we should aim to do so without closing their eyes to the unfair and cruel actions that, sadly, happen every day.

Perfect to teach children the harshness of reality. John Entwistle planned to do an album of children's songs around that time, and was going to put Boris the Spider on it, along with a couple of other songs (like Silas Stingy off Sell Out).
