  1. Malcolm Macdowell, as far as I know

    Malcom Macdowell?:

    If

    O Lucky Man

    A Clockwork Orange

    Caligula

    ...and a Star Trek movie!!

    You're a bit cruel, I reckon. More correct to say that Malcolm is one of those who was a big star as a young man, but never realy kicked on as a mature actor.

    King Missile (Detachable Penis, Jesus Was Way Cool, etc)

    William Shatner... lots of stuff over lots of years.

    And let's not forget:

    Losing My Edge - LCD Soundsystem

    Here they all are for your listening pleasure:

    Very nice, Darryl. I know all of these well. It looks like you're fond of Dionne... so am I. In fact, I prefer her version of "Say a Little Prayer" to Aretha's. Possibly because Dionne sings the chorus herself instead of letting her backing singers do all the work ;-)

    See ya,

  4. Seven songs by the Beatles/Beatles solo/Stones? :doh: :laughing:

    There are other good bands and artists in the world too, you know? :P

    Yes, but for some (many?) of us, these two bands are simply head and shoulders above all the rest. Here I am approaching a million years old, and I'm still absolutely in awe of the Beatles and the Stones. I suspect that there was something supernatural happening ;-)
