The only beer I drink is Guinness. I can't drink any other type. Tennants, Coors, Budwiser, Miller all tastes the exact same to me.
#122 Re: The Sunset Strip » Michael Jackson's This Is It Discussion » 832 weeks ago
PREVIOUSLY unheard audio of a song recorded by MICHAEL JACKSON has hit the net.
The track, entitled A Place With No Name, is a take on A Horse With No Name which was recorded by the group America in 1971.
A 25 second clip hit the internet earlier today and it is thought to be the first time the song has been heard by anyone outside of Michael's camp.
According to reports on US site TMZ, America's manager gave permission for Jackson to record the song despite the similarity.
The band's current manager, Jim Morey, who was also Jacko's manager in the late 80's and early 90's, told TMZ: "The band was honoured that Michael chose to do their song and they hope it becomes available for all Michael's fans to hear."
It is not clear when the song was recorded.

This is amazing. I can't wait until the full song is released. Hopefully it's sooner rather than later.

Did he sell those at some point?
He was forced to sell those because of the fines he needed to pay in his series of court cases and his constant alimony payments.

I've been following this for the last 12 hours and can't believe it. I find it disturbing that people on ebay have already started selling MJ "Tribute" tshirts and mousemats.
Regardless of what happened in his "personal" life he was truely one of the greatests acts of his generation. Out of the big names that remain (Madonna, McCartney, Rod Stewart, Mick Jagger etc) I can't see anyone getting a bigger response from their fans that Michael has. I can't say I'm shocked as such, because it was well documented that he was in poor health this last few years but I do believe these 50 tour dates were what pushed him over the edge. That would have been tough for a 20 year old never mind a 50 year old in poor health who hasn't toured in over 10 years and demands so much stage presence when he does. Regardless, he was truely one of the best and will be missed by fans worldwide.

Good Will HuntingI'm not sure if I ever saw "Grizzly Man", but the rest are all good to great films. Pretty cool diverse buys.
Apparently it's a documentary film about a guy that's spent 13 years of his life living with bears.
Yeah, I've seen my tastes in films change over the last 15 months or so. Maybe it's just because I'm getting older. I used to love comedy and anything Adam Sandler, but now I'm not really keen on the genre and the only Sandler movie I'll really watch these days is "Reign Over Me." Not saying I hate comedy just don't really watch the genre these days. I love Drama movies and films based on true events.
I've saw some fantastic films this year old, and new ones that I love to watch and talk about such as:
Lost in Translation
Broken Flowers
Sideways
The Wrestler
The Visitor
Changeling
In The Line of Fire
Million Dollar Baby
Gran Torino
Flash of Genius
Requiem For A Dream
The Pianist
What kind of movies do you generally watch?

^ Really? I thought it was an amazing portrait of his life over the years with June. I do agree that Joaquin Phoenix was nothing special though. Reese Witherspoon on the other hand was fantastic as June, and deserved more recognition for her performance than Phoenix did with Cash. She sounded really good too.
Just watched Shawshank Redemption, and about to watch Mr. Brooks now.
Just bought a shitload of movies today so I shall be watching the following for the first time over the next few days:
Being John Malkovich
Escape from Alcatraz
Monty Python: Life of Brian
Cinderella Man
Pulp Fiction
Grizzly Man
Raging Bull
A Beautiful Mind
Good Will Hunting

Have to go with Shawshank, as ironically enough I just watched it for the first time ever like an hour ago. Amazing film.
Just bought 50 quids worth of DVDs off of play last night, probably should have bought "Once A Time In America" aswell. I've never saw it but it sounds good.
#130 Re: The Garden » Sickest cartoon of the year. » 839 weeks ago
That's from the film version, that Channel 4, I believe show now and again.
Those poor rabbits get ripped apart by barbed wire and dogs. In the end there's a showdown between a killer black rabbit and a dog, it's pretty graphic for a morning film.
By the way, happy 18th

Aye, and people often wonder about the effect violence on television has on young children. You would wonder why it was ever allowed to air in a children's time slot when so many kids would be watching, although the violence seemed to go over everyones heads as the majority that watched this when they were young don't recall it's graphic content. Just like I only caught on to the "Seamen Staines" and "Master Bates" from Captain Pugwash in recent years. 
Besides, I was always a "Animals of Farthing Wood" kind of guy anyways. 
Oh, and thanks man.
