^ That Cloakroom album's good but I don't think it quite warrants two mentions.

It's hilarious that Kenwright still has any influence at Everton.

I considered camping out in the queue on Sunday but decided against it. Still might tomorrow but not sure. I saw Rafa on Court 1 about five years ago. Have never seen the other three.

Just back from having centre court seats today. Great time. Lucky enough to have been around 7 times over past 10 years to Wimbledon, from first days to finals. Whilst I appreciate how fortunate I am to have gone so many times. Still not seen Rafa or Federer in a match. Always Murray / Djokovic. I think I’m going to try and go to some tournaments next summer to hopefully see them.

Decent opening day to Wimbledon. Good win for Raducanu against a very solid grass court player. Glad Murray got the job done. Alcaraz just about getting over the line - still got some improvement to make on grass.

I remember we had to do all three qualifying rounds that year because UEFA hadn't yet factored in the idea of a winner not finishing high enough to qualify automatically. First competitive game of the season was early July against a Welsh team that was then called Total Network Solutions FC. Weird old time.

Not bitter about that anymore, ha. Truth be told, Villarreal outplayed us over the two legs and deserved to go through.

Qualifying for the CHAMPIONS League by finishing in the top quarter of your division...such a farce.

Oh yeah I forgot about that thread. I think I took one look and got tired even thinking about compiling such a list.

The All-Time Favorite Songs Ballot Thread • forum.chorus.fm

JM95 replied to the thread 2020 in music..

Has anyone here ever actually made a top 100 songs list? Outside of a few particular favourites, I wouldn't even know how to start making such a list.

JM95 replied to the thread 2020 in music..

There's probably something in this. It's a warm melancholy; not the most exciting record, but very nicely made and hits a neat balance between reflecting that pensive isolation people were feeling at the time whilst also having a very pleasant snug feel. I liked it at the time for what it was and I get why people really connect with it even though I don't listen to it now.

farewell preseason Pirlo

JM95 replied to the thread Album Deftones - Ohms (September 25, 2020).

If it's any consolation @LightWithoutHeat, I've always suspected a proper studio version of Finger Of Death wouldn't have matched up to that one. I reckon they were still trying things out with it at that stage and and Chino was probably still experimenting a little on the melodies and words; it just happens that those really odd, haunting, almost anti-melody note choices, and the unhuman screaming in the breakdown, gives the song this extra untamed feeling that really hits. I imagine some of that feel would have been ironed out by the time they finished it. The song title itself feels very much like a placeholder.

Need to check out the new Angel Olsen. All Mirrors and My Woman were both really good.

JM95 liked cherrywaves's post in the thread Album Tears For Fears - The Tipping Point (February 25,2022).

Watching some live vids since tix for last night were too pricey for me. I really don’t think Roland Orzabal gets his due as a vocalist. He still sounds absolutely fantastic all these years later.
