I can't find a resolution for the www contradiction between Lloyd Cole, on the Lloyd site, saying he loves Robert Quine and they're going for NYC Chinese food next week, and Quine, on the Quine site, saying, "Lloyd Cole just wants to make MOR records for the commercial radio" etc.
Most importantly, I can't find 'Ask And He'll Answer' Nicky D answering my question of a while back, namely: why are there two different versions of the Magnetic Fields' GET LOST LP?

Do you have to go and buy tracks while they're still reasonably new, or is there a fair bit of back stock? And are the Greensleeves riddim compilations mixed or do they feature full-length tracks? I'm mainly looking for "Money To Burn" (don't know who this is by but it rocks) and Mr Easy's "Crazy", both of which are based on the Buy Out riddim, but I'd be interested in any other Buy Out tracks or, well, anything, really. (Cue lots of dancehall connoisseurs laughing at me - as you can see, I don't really know what I'm talking about at all. I feel far too white and middle-class to say "riddim", as well, but it seems fairly unavoidable.)
Anyway, thanks very much for your help, much appreciated, you rock. And an excuse for a record-shopping trip to the Berwick Street area is always appreciated, even if I haven't dared venture into the non- indie shops before :)

I really want to know why Donald Tusk has such a ridiculous, un-Polish name, but the internet will not help me (in English, anyway).
Also, I can't find that Nazi propaganda poster of the Jewish octopus controlling the world (the head is a dollar sign centred on New York, and in a neat touch the tentacle stretching to the Philippines has been severed by a samurai sword).
― Ismael Klata, Wednesday, 24 October 2007 12:21 (sixteen years ago) link
A Chinese communist propaganda poster I saw in the Tate once called "The Nightmare of Future War" which was either the inspiration for the opening scenes of Terminator, or a startling coincidence. Or a fake. There was a futuristic warplane that really was similar to the ones in the film, searchlights and flak, and the ground was a sea of skulls.

A way to find out what the song in your head is when you don't know the words, only the tune. "Boyz Unlimited", sitcom by Matt Lucas and probably David Walliams which I vaguely remember being funny.

Um, I can't find that thread that is "This is the thread where we get people to dig up stuff on ILX that we can't find"
Ironic I know.
Specifically, I'm looking for the links to that awful music device where you put your hand infront of light beams while some horrible general midi tunes play.

Is that really irony? I mean, I understand that there is something ironical about that thread where people complain about how much they dislike people who complain, but what about where you can't find the thread that is for people who can't find the threads they are looking for? I would call that tragicomic. Would I call it ironic? I am just not sure.
― moley, Friday, 13 June 2008 05:49 (fifteen years ago) link
I am not saying it isn't irony. I am saying, I need some guidance here. I am curious as to whether it is irony or not. I feel my understanding of irony has become suject to modernist, morissettian redefinitions.
― moley, Friday, 13 June 2008 05:51 (fifteen years ago) link
Or perhaps it is cosmic irony, or meta irony? And what I thought was irony was merely hypocrisy...?

Andy Partridge once wrote a mini-essay (or post?) about songwriting in which he used an extended metaphor about going around a racetrack built by his forebears (the Beatles, the Move, the Kinks, etc.) This may have been a myspace post? Or maybe that's just where I originally saw it, in my memory. It's not in the Complicated Game book and I can't seem to find it on Chalkhills (it wasn't really "news" or "press").
