i have to pass on the Agadoo nomination: “joke” songs can’t really compete against songs that are trying to be serious while being awful.

opus, however, is a real contender.

I found out through a wikipedia binge that Peter Gabriel (from Genesis with Phil too) founded a project called ApeNet, which was meant to link “great apes” from all over the world over the internet. I’m not joking. Also Gabriel made some kind of graphical adventure game. Funny.

I’m really starting to like Sussudio. Hugh, I may need to unsubscribe from your blog :)

I’m *trying* to eat, and Dan is playing Sussudio through his computer speakers. Thanks, Hugh!

I had no idea Phil Collins is so … British. I mean, I knew he was from England but I’ve never heard him not-singing before. I am not afraid to admit that I love his singing voice. It has a nice chorus effect on it.

But this song in particular sucks. Especially the lyrics. I post them here for your consideration.

Theres this girl thats been on my mind
All the time, sussudio oh oh
Now she dont even know my name
But I think she likes me just the same
Sussudio oh oh

Oh if she called me Id be there
Id come running anywhere
Shes all I need, all my life
I feel so good if I just say the word
Sussudio, just say the word
Oh sussudio

Now I know that Im too young
My love has just begun
Sussudio oh oh
Ooh give me a chance, give me a sign
Ill show her anytime
Sussudio oh oh

Ah, Ive just got to have her, have her now
Ive got to get closer but I dont know how
She makes me nervous and makes me scared
But I feel so good if I just say the word
Sussudio just say the word
Oh sussudio, oh

Ah, shes all I need all of my life
I feel so good if I just say the word
Sussudio I just say the word
Oh sussudio I just say the word
Oh sussudio Ill say the word
Sussudio oh oh oh
Just say the word

Thanks for that Hugh. The Horror.

I don’t think I had synesthesia at all – it still smells of farts.

You need some health warnings, by the way. I watched the Sussudio video for the first time. Ever. I came so close to avoiding it forever.
