What annoys me

At VG users are able to create their own lists, and then people can vote. Among others you will find a list “Best Norwegian song in 2006” http://lister.vg.no/?do=show&id=2185 Number two is the insane Hallelujah-boys…Lind, Nilsen, Fuentes & Holm. May I point out that this song is not Norwegian, it is written by Leonard Cohen. I do believe I will make a list “Lists I love to hate” or something…

From the old days, mail from Håkon Moslet

Many years ago I wrote an email to Håkon Moslet about the Dandy Warhols, and he responded

he- he, en hyggelig mail! takk for det, setter pris på slikt, nyt “thirteen tales” i lange drag, kan også anbefale den forrige skiva deres “the dandy warhols come down”, gitt ut i 1997, der finner du et knippe låter du ikke kan motstå, som Boys Better, I Love You, Not If You Were the Last Junkie on Earth, Every Day Should Be a Holiday og Hard on for Jesus, keep on!

Watching Lydverket a few weeks ago, they where talking about the most sampled song ever in Hip-Hop, Apache by the Incredible Bongo Band, which also had sampled the song from The Shadows. So, for that reason I had to buy it, it is a must have in every cd collection.
