Rage and Video Hits must be doing an eighties tribute each this week. Rage last night was full of Duran Duran, Bananarama, Prince, A-Ha, Peter Gabriel as well as a lot of other stuff, including some early 90s - what type of music do Dresden Dolls do anyways? Anyone that wears an Iron Maiden T-shirt while introducing Pat Benatar can't be all bad.
And this morning on Video Hits, we are having a tribute to 1989 to 1991 I think. We have got Vogue by Madonna on at the moment - love that song - and earlier had Faith No More with Epic - love that song as well - and also Wilson Phillips Hold On. Don't love that song as much as I did at the time, but the album was the first tape that I bought for myself. And yes, the videos were better than the songs if you know what I mean :)
Also, on the songs that I didn't like so much, but still are OK, we had Bobby Brown My Perogative - if anyone thinks Britney's version is better, the door is over there LOL, kidding - Kris Kros Jump Jumping. I'll admit their version of Jumping isn't as good as Destiny Child's LOL. I think I heard in the background earlier Soundgarden's Black Hole Sun, which is a song I do like...
Funny story of the day comes from the Northern Territory, which was hit by a category five cyclone the other week - not really much damage, no deaths thank goodness, and it didn't hit Darwin, the main population spot up there. During the clean up, a crocodile got hold of a chainsaw off one of the staff at a nature park, and was roaming around with said chainsaw for a while. I know, I know, it's all in the telling, and I probably ruined the punchline, but if you go to the actual story link, it's told pretty well there :)
And it's been the worst month casualty wise for the Americans and overall coalition in Iraq for a while. The Americans are up to 2400 dead, and about 17,500 injured. And the first Australian death has happened - non combat death, investigation is going to be required, and to top it all off, they transported the wrong body back to Australia first time around. But no doubt they will blame it on the private contractors. First Australian military death as well, there was an Australian working for the RAF who was killed a few months ago.
That's enough for now I think.
