He’s alive!
Well getting there anyway. Still kinda woozy, but at least I can sit upright and not think the room is spinning or that I want to be sick…

Which is all just as well as I’d forgotten that today is broadband day. Yay…

I just wish I had more enthusiasm for it… ohh and I’ve installed ZoneAlarm as my firewall, unless you techies think there is a better (free) one out there…

And, as if by magic, the Telewest van draws up…

I Spy

A harmless film but that’s not really an excuse. Questionable comedy ‘romp’ vaguely about a spy (Owen Wilson), who recruits a famous boxer (Eddie Murphy) to help him infiltrate a baddies base. No attempt to worry about a plot, this is a pretty low level film that doesn’t pretend to be anything else. I’m just glad that we didn’t really ‘pay’ to watch this.

Tops of the Pops 4
Troubled-Diva’s quest for the Top Pop Decade continues.

Once again I’m faced with deciding who finishes last, first. Only then can I place number 4, and then 3, then have to worry about 2 and 1. As has been mentioned, one thing this ‘experiment’ is showing is how crap the majority (so far) of pop music is… anyway, on to today’s voting:
1. Free – Wishing Well: I can see a 70’s rock thing developing here, but hey I knew about that anyway (for example, I’m listening to Cream – White Room at this very moment)
2. Daniel Bedingfield – If you’re not the one: Not mad keen on this when it came out but it has grown and grown on me, and my whole opinion of Mr.Bedingfield has changed. He’s now, officially, OK in my book.
3. Maureen Evans – Like I do. As the man himself notes, the melody is very familiar (although I don’t remember the track he mentions, I do know of it…)
4. Snap! – Exterminate. Awful and only fourth because of…
5. Joe Cocker & Jennifer Warnes – Up where we belong. Joe, Joe, Joe. What on earth were you thinking? My dislike of this track is proportional to the number of times I had to play it on the Request Show I used to host on hospital radio. Elton John’s Sacrifice and that damn Lady in Red were the other two ‘most-requested’ week after week after week after….
