As promised I’ve gone ahead and made up for last week’s no show by marking two songs this week.
I’ve taken a suggestion from Jessica this week, Pink Floyd’s Mother.
A B grade isn’t too shabby but there’s definitely some weird Oedipal stuff going there.
In honour of Eurovision and a sign of my lack of creativity currently I’ve also picked Waterloo by Abba. Probably the most well known song from the 60 odd years of competition.

P.S. If this has turned out to be a bit crap, I apologise because I’m doing this just after a drinking game…
P.P.S I want to make it known to everyone I ever meet that I’m severely disappointed by the 2017 ESC winner. Crap song and a complete lack of humility in the acceptance speech.

Bahahaha! I love it! Especially the (highly appropriate nod to the Oedipal complex Roger Waters clearly had)! 🤗

Your mind is supposed to be so “Comfortably Numb” (yeah I used a title from that album) when you listen to “Mother” that you don’t really care about prose. Very amusing though.

For someone who just finished participating in a drinking game, you took on quite a task by analyzing one song by the most depressing band of all time and another by the most cheerful band of all time.

Well for the first time in a long time, my pot luck team actually performed quite well. I wasn’t quite as absolutely shit faced as I have been in previous years…
