Incredible to learn that Mark E. Smith’s last recording was a cover of Madonna’s Material Girl.

I wonder if any of the Beatles biopics will have a moment as memorable as this.

#NowReading Got this because of the title. I don’t know anything else about it. It is very good so far though.

In comparison, Kneecap have 1.2 million monthly listeners.

Do you think the monthly listener numbers on Spotify are actually accurate? It says Gilbert O’Sullivan has 3.3 million monthly listeners, which might be true but seems surprising.

I don’t mind Elton John’s music but it must be said that he has some of the worst ever albums titles.

I wonder how many acts have been booked to play in the National Stadium in Dublin, thinking it was the actual national stadium and not a 2000 capacity boxing hall.
