    Not one of my favorite Pink Floyd songs, but still Floyd. 7/10.

    A true musical genius. Too bad there isn't a clip that contains the whole of Part 1.

    Here's a lightweight voice used to perfectly-judged effect. Because of her provenance, Lily doesn't get taken as seriously as she should.

    (You might not want to play this loud if your grandma's nearby. Though that depends on your grandma. Mine wouldn't have been in the least perturbed, the foul-mouthed old cow.)

    Talk about kids that like saying 'dick' in class, eh? Boring song with a message that's been delivered many times before in much more creative ways. Add the techno-laden music, and you have a real stinker. 2/10.

    Thoughts on religion.

    I'm going to post the lyrics, too, because I love them:

    (We'll cut you down to size)
    There is a woman burning at the center square
    Raven black eyes and long let out hair
    Screaming, while cloaked vultures holier-than-thou circle and glare
    At sweat drops on pale skin like satin
    And as the raging flames work her into cinder
    Said in their defence:
    Stupidity and ignorance, prejudice and intolerance
    All sound so much wiser when dressed up in Latin

    Life will never be the same
    I have a bigger world since I found God
    Truth will never be the same
    I'm in a righter mind since I found God
    (I found God)
    I found...

    Mrs Modern Mother Mary, all pale and weary
    From raising her overweight kids in the outskirts of Suburbia
    On a nice Christian gender based salary
    And a church she can merely attend
    And there on the flip-side of Caucasia we see
    Miss Modern Mary Magdalene gone Deep Throat
    On international cable TV

    So you keep talking about progress and equality
    But to me, the crusade is still on my friend

    Silly me who always thought
    Life was for the living
    And giving in to lust
    Was all to give and to be given

    Life will never be the same
    I have a better view since I found God
    Guilt will never be the same
    I'm on a higher ground since I found God
    I found God...

    Life will never be the same
    I have a better view now
    There's always someone else to blame
    I'm on the winning team now
    Death will never be the same
    I'm in the faster lane now
    No more am I the one to blame
    I have a juster cause now

    Love will never be the same
    Lust will never be the same
    Shame will never be the same
    I will never be the same
    And
    You will never be the same

    I am by no means averse to metal, but this is incredibly dull. 3/10.

    That song isn't metal.

    I've always liked Uncle Tupelo. 7/10.

    This is metal.

    P.S. The Rolling Stones are the most overrated band in human history .

    Ha ha. Good idea and the song is ok. 7/10

    A more conventional love song for valentine's Day.

    I could never get into Weller - I think it's something to do with his unremitting po-facedness. There's no glimmer of fun in the man. 4/10


    Here's a song that Weller described as one of the two best records of the late Sixties. (The other was Waterloo Sunset.) Can't fault his taste, then.

    I like it, but the high points give me a bit of a headache. 8/10.

    I think if you make a signature, you should inspire some emotion in someone else. I also think it would be pretentious for me to think I could do that.

    For hap/R&B, it's not as bad as it could be. 3/10.

    For Valentine's Day (if I posted this already, as I suspect I did, my apologies. It just seems fitting.)
