Blah, Blah, Blah.
So I was going to wait until we got a decision on who's in charge of the country before writing a new post, but I'm bored now.
So, seriously, how great are Shonen Knife?
The chorus of that song has been playing in my head continuously since I watched the video three days ago, which really shouldn't come as a surprise, given my history.
When I saw Shonen Knife at The Windmill last year, they played a new song about barnacles. Yeah, that's right, barnacles.
Naoko said that she admired the tenacity of barnacles in clinging on to rocks and so forth. The song went;
"Barnacle
HEY!
Barnacle
HEY!
This is a song about the barnacle!"
Shonen Knife are fucking brilliant.
I suppose at this point I could heave in some unwieldy metaphor comparing Gordon Brown to a great big barnacle or something, but... let's just not.
