Re: R.I.P. John Barry

I was very saddened to hear that John Barry passed away from a heart attack yesterday at the age of 77. He was a great composer and his award winning soundtracks for hundreds of films like Dances with Wolves and Born Free along with 11 of the memorable James Bond movies are timeless. He will be gre...

Re: No Tell Lover - Chicago.

Everybody keeps tellin' me that this affair's not meant to be If she's his "No Tell Lover", that implies that he's keeping her a secret. So how can "Everybody" be telling him anything about the affair? I guess he's not so good at keeping secrets. I hope he doesn't work for the C...

I like your choices and I think I can almost get a sense of the music you like. A couple of these artists you mention have already been mentioned on the site and all of them will be covered at some point (give me time). Another Canadian I like is k.d.

I'm not a fan of banning books or other art forms, censorship, or political correctness. They're banning it now? It came out in 1985. They weren't banning it when it was selling albums. Besides, the song reflects the time in which it was written, and it is meant to be satirical.
