The English Translation of Ikke Bødlen: Not the torturer will scare me Nor the hate and the torture Nor the barrels of death's rifles nor the shadows on the wall Nor the nights When the last star of pain is falling to the ground But the blind indifference of the merciless world

POPSI've Gotta' Say It... I LOVE GLEE! This FOX show has more excitement and energy than any 3 cop shows with chases and guns blazing ever had. Great writing (over the top, but not), outstanding cast performances by the double handful, and a blazing brilliant talent in Lea Michele (character Rachel, lower picture) make this appointment TV for me. Lea Michele has AMAZING pipes that electrify every song she sings. I'd watch a whole hour of her every week, just singing her heart out. If you're missing this show, your missing IT!

POPSThe Song of America Over? Not Hardly Doom and gloom is almost as popular as trying to predict the next trend or "thing," or claiming that the rise of The New Kids On the Block was going to rewrite pop music. So writing that China will be the new America and that America is in permanent decline is popular but goofy and wrong. Jim Fisher gives us some good reasons to say: Not So Much to China's Up and US is Down!

POPSMore Whose Line Is It Anyway than you knew existed online Some funny snarky comment in the thread: The moment at which I realized the gulf between the hosts of the British and American versions was when during a game where the players had to recount some story in the style of a particular author, Josie Lawrence (ha-cha-cha) announced she was going to do it in the style of Louisa May Alcott. By was of explanation, she mentioned that Alcott was "notable for writing 'Little Women' and 'Little Men.'" Clive Anderson added, "Yes, and little else." Can anyone imagine Drew Carey pulling that one off? Clive Anderson certainly had some quick come backs to some of the audience member suggestions and his verbal sparring with Greg Proops was always amusing: Audience Member: Masturbation! Clive: There was a cry of masturbation but I think you're on your own with that one. Audience Member: Premature ejaculation Clive: Come again?

POPSA 100 Days On The Joyous Observances Of Barack Obama’s First 100 Days which is a lethal skill. The thoughtful look suckered many of my more impressionable conservative comrades last fall, when David Brooks and Christopher Buckley were cranking out gushing paeans to Obama’s “first-class temperament” — temperament being to the Obamacons what Nick Jonas’s hair is to a Tiger Beat reporter. But the drab reality is that the man they hail — Brooks & Buckley, I mean; not the Tiger Beat crowd — is a fantasy projection. There is no Obama The Sober Centrist, although it might make a good holiday song. But underneath the thoughtful look is a transformative domestic agenda that represents a huge annexation of American life by an ever-more intrusive federal government. One cannot but admire the singleminded ruthlessness with which Obama is getting on with it, even as he hones his contemplative, unhurried, moderate routine on primetime press conferences.

POPSJohn Denver - The Skip Weshner Show (1971) Skip Weshner passed away in 1997 and these tapes were found among his belongings. They have been restored and shared among music fans. Weshner hosted a popular radio show on KRHM-FM in Los Angeles. On this particular night, March 9, 1971, Denver says on air that he had been up all night writing this new song, Starwood In Aspen, and most likely this is the first performance of this fan favourite. He stops mid-song to figure out the next chord. While there are some stumbles here and there, this is a very young John Denver sounding quite mournful on tracks like Follow Me and Gospel Changes. This is an excellent stereo broadcast tape that has never been released before. Please share freely. Click on the highlighted tracks to download the MP3s (these are high quality, stereo MP3s - sample rate of 192 kibit/s).

POPSThe power of Music and Memory
Now, accuracy. What we’ve learned from musical memory is that it is astonishingly accurate. People can remember details and nuances of songs they know to such a degree that you can play them a 100-millisecond burst of a piece of music they know and they can name it from that. I’m talking about a tenth of a second—before the melody has a chance to evolve, before there’s any rhythm. If you alter a little bit of a well-known piece of music, people pick it up instantly. And if I were to ask you to sing your favorite pop song, the likelihood is that you would sing it at very near the right tempo and in very near the right key, even if you’re not a professional singer. It’s the nature of memory in general and musical memory in particular that it has this accuracy. The third thing has to do with knowledge representation. There is something special about music that allows us to encode information. For tens of thousands of years before humans had writing, they still had important information
