Offline More congratulations, @50yearslate! (You get an entire apple! But maybe that doesn’t matter, because Beatlebug already gave you seven). Although it is strangely unsettling to have someone on the leaderboard who ascended within my time here.

Please excuse me whilst I recover from this violent rocking of my entire worldview.

Anyway…
GEORGE!!!!!!!!!!

Offline A song that some of the casual George fans might not have heard, one of my favourite ever George tracks (and it is featured on the best film Handmade ever made….Shanghai Surprise….).

I haven’t seen Shanghai Surprise, but I’m not a fan of the song Shanghai Surprise.

I love songs that have that faux-Chinese feel with a pop song, like Bowie’s China Doll. Yes the lyrics for SS are atrocious but I still bop along to it every time I hear it:
“Back streets so crowded that no room to swing a cat/I’d like to know you but you’r acting so coolie/I’m finding out pursued by evil looking dudes/ It’s getting hot for me like tofu when it deep fries”
How could you not love such artistic genius?
I also love singing Vicki Brown’s parts, I wish George had done more duets with women- we are solely lacking them.

and I don’t. Even ‘Breath Away From Heaven’ seems a little bit weird to me, though it’s much better than SS. But to each their own 
‘Someplace Else’ is a really good song.

I don’t know why I wrote Doll, I have a problem when I’m typing with my mates my head is thinking one thing, my brain the other. In saying that, I’m going to forever refer to it now as ‘Doll’ just to piss you off 🙂 .

Heh my own post just reflected what I was explaining, I meant to type ‘my head is thinking one thing, my fingers the other’.
A fun little creative challenge for you all, here is a photo of George perfect for meme-making.

StrawberryFields91, ScarlettFieldsForever, BeatlebugI've been up on the mountain, and I've seen his wondrous grace,
I've sat there on the barstool and I've looked him in the face.
He seemed a little haggard, but it did not slow him down,
he was humming to the neon of the universal sound.
