Brie Larson did that Neil Young cover back in the 70s.

Realised that using BJH as a shorthand for both Bojack Horseman and Bong Joon-Ho has lead to some misconceptions for the persons I was talking to.

Todd Phillips, party auteur (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 9 February 2020 16:45 (six years ago)

It's not that I don't know the difference really but Bill Callahan (Smog), Mark Kozelek (Sun Kil Moon), Kurt Wagner (Lambchop) and David Berman (Purple Mountains) all occupy this space of 'elder US indie statesman with the deep voice who writes wry, lyrical songs'

- Guy from Lambchop
- Guy who won Super Bowl with the St. Louis Rams.

Really, I always combined them into Sam Sheppard, actor and famous playwright. A double threat!

Har Mar Klobuchar (PBKR), Saturday, 15 February 2020 14:43 (six years ago)

I used to combine Karen Ann Quinlan and Kathleen Quinlan, subconsciously thinking how nice that .the "girlfriend in a coma" survived and then had such success in Hollywood.

Then the columnist Anna Quindlen emerged and that broke my brain so I knew I had to get them all sorted.

Yes to these and also Surfer Blood

Don’t forget novelists Ann Quin and Anna Kavan and throw in actress Anna Paquin for good measure.

Orbital and The Orb

To make matters more confusing, some early remixes by The Orb are titled "Orbital Mix". Took me a while to figure out it wasn't Orbital who'd done them.

I've never read Tolkien or seen the LOTR movies, and whenever I see a reference to Smeagol, my mind goes to Robert Smigel.

Somebody at the Times doesn’t know their Money Supermarket from their Money Saving Expert.

.@thetimes have incorrectly used my picture in the story that moneysupermarket group chief exec Mark Lewis is leaving.

To clarify I am not going anywhere and will continue as executive chair of MoneySavingExpert.

Andrew Farrell, Sunday, 23 February 2020 16:55 (six years ago)

at least Minghella did a decent Highsmith adaptation (among a load of shite!) although it wasn't a patch on the 1960 one with Delon. Less said about Mendes the better.

I only got them mixed up once tbh but was thinking Baron Howard had sneaked off to the invisible choir without telling anybody!

I used to mix them up too, but not so much in recent years, for obvious reasons.
