An Australian website (Samesame.com.Au)composed a list of the 50 Gayest Songs od all time. I think that most Moggers are guilty of having a few of these songs in their music collection. . . 50.

It must be nice to have money. Because evidently when you do, you don't understand people who don't. You think things like, "I know my employees are supposed to be paid on Friday, but I think this time we'll change it and make them wait till Monday. AND let's not tell them, so they'll have a nice little surprise when they check their bank balance on Friday and see that it still says zero." Because it never occurs to this person she might be completely fucking some of us o... MORE

Was hanging out yesterday evening with a couple of cool friends down in Brighton. Did not realise 'till we got down there that it was the Pride March, pity we missed it, but the place was still packed and took us 1/2 an hour to find a parking space down in the Kemptown end. Still, had a great evening sitting outside the 'Volks', talking about music and enjoying the gathering of such diverse culture's from all over the country/planet. Brought a tear to my eye. Good t...

The CD turned 25 today! On this day 25 years ago, it was Abba's new album The Visitors that made music history by becoming the first album published on this new compact format. It was the smallest album available at the time... It marked a revolutionary time in the music industry. In addition to the scheming CEOs with dollar signs in their eyes and futures, pirates and thieves also quickly figured out the benefits of such a pocketable disc! My how things have chang... MORE

ABBA maintained a place in the vinyl stacks and our jaded hearts throughout the 80s at KJHK. I admired its high purity of essence (POE) quotient. The band members seemed blissfully unaware of their musical cheese factor and that endeared them to us punk rockers and musical elitists at the college radio station. Nothing broke up the caustic stream of Dead Kennedy anti-Reagan dirges like ABBA, festooned with disco glam fashion, euro-sheik salon haircuts, and unparalleled h... MORE

I don't have many songs in my playlist. That's because I tend to delete all the music off my computer at the beginning of a new year and add songs as I go. But I don't just put in any songs. I put in the songs which I get stuck in my head. In hope that once I play the songs enough. They'll all go. So far I have: *Dancing Queen *Take A Chance On Me - Abba *Dude Looks Like A Lady - Aerosmith *I Will Survive - Gloria Gaynor *Just A Little Bit - Liberty X See not very l... MORE

Never a huge fan of ABBA - its hard to deny their harmony. And I do love harmony. This one called ABBA around the piano - I'd never heard it or seen it - but its circa 1980. Its said to be played every New Years Eve in Sweden. I'm adding it to my arsenal. Shalom... MORE

Much like scissors, running with vinyl has proven the downfall of many a fluffy bunny. Exhibit A-
