High fidelity...sort of

MILAN – My daily broadside against Noel :). I see he and his fans consider the brass section in "People who will be (the death of you and me)" a great or even the best part... "sounds as New Orleans brass"... I think that's the worst part, it makes the song sound as a circus song... not really impressive. And I always hated the circus. Since the "new" boring song by Noel is out, I'm appreciating Beady Eye even more. 

Just because there's written "Noel Gallagher", it doesn't mean you must adore it.

Update about the communist mayor in Milan I wrote posts about… (in many parts of the world when I say "communist", they tell me: what's that? lol)

Not even 2 months have passed… and the disaster I predicted… it’s happening.
More taxes, less soldiers, the price of tickets for the transports raised by 50% (Ken “the Red” Livingstone in London did something similar), and they had to be free eh, people angry as fuck.
Of course, the mayor’s people said it’s “the previous mayor’s fault”… nonsense, as before there have been several mayors from the same side.
My parents even had to change their residency and live away from Milan for the first time in so many decades since they were young.
There should be Noel with his broadsides against these politicians.

Let’s go on with the “top 5” as in High fidelity… films and books, done.

Bands or musicians who will have to be shot when the musical revolution comes:

Muse
Coldplay
Green Day
Bob Geldof
Manu Chao (if he still exists)

Favourite records:

- What’s the story Morning Glory
- Houses of the holy

Songs for my funeral:
(I picked some quite ironic for a funeral)

Velvet morning (“and now I’m trying to tell you about my life but my tongue is twisted and I’m more dead than alive”)
Live forever
Who put the weight of the world on my shoulders?
Rockin’ chair
Let’s all make believe

I remember I had some other one, but as Noel on his funeral:
“I'm not really bothered 'cause I won't be there. I don't give a shit.”


Top 5 quotes:
(not by Oasis, as there would be too many)

"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars".

(and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "awww!")

(Jack Kerouac)

"The world has the monkeys, Europe has the French. It's compensated. I call the disapproval of the whole Europe to humiliate these shamless liars."
(translation from Arthur Schopenhauer)

"With a few flowers in my garden, half a dozen pictures and some books, I live without envy".
(Lope de Vega)

"We get chatting to Marco who was around for Paolo Nutini arriving and had given him a quick hand shake then sloped off, (you know how cool guys like to play it), he is really a Brit Indie lad at heart trapped inside the body of an Italian guy, his taste in music is fabulous.
The tempo was troppo caldo (too hot weather), the Duomo is breathtaking to say the least. Milano women are ridiculously stylish and fabulously slim, gorgeous beings. Marco shaped my pizza into a love heart. Italian men are so smooth!"
(Jacq)

"Seriously, what do you see in that guy?!"
"He makes me laugh".
(Jessica Rabbit about her husband)
