I know what you mean Lee, I can't stop listening to this Lady. So many catchy hooks in her tunes.....

No controversy there! Tove Lo is the greatest bit of pop in years!

Special recommendation for the original video for habits - the remake is nowhere near as good.

Aye mate, just like Kate Bush, she's one of the few artists that gives me goosebumps, etc, on every listen. Feck itunes, I've gone and ordered a copy of the Ltd US "Pink Cadillac Vinyl".

I now know full well what Scotty was thinking when he used the words "Bathwater", "Liz McLarnon" and "Drink" in the same sentence :wink: ;D

Whilst Belgian beer is mighty fine, Belgian chocolate is really pretty sub par.

Especially this one. Care to explain Belgian politics to me, for I'm sure *I* don't understand one bit of it!

Heresy. White chocolate is not really chocolate. It's just a crystallized block of sugar and fat without any of the good stuff (=cocoa powder).
The only kind of white chocolate I can get behind is caramelized.

That doesn't make it chocolate, though. All the magic happens in the cocoa solids.

By his performance to date I would say he is going to be brilliant.

There is probably someone right now, measuring up, seeing if there is enough space left on Mount Rushmore to carve out another head.

isn't it traditional for all the really memorable presidents to be assassinated? (if you wanna know the truth you gotta dig up Johnny Booth) :wink:

I always figured that it was no coincidence that Mr. Hinkley was paroled just before the election... :innocent:

You, sir, are an offense to people with excellent taste in chocolate. Since 'Balaton' sounds akin to 'balatum', a bitumen type of flooring, I have no qualms about assuming your tongue and taste buds are lined with the stuff, hence your inability to discern between our twisted right wing elitist nation's great chocolate produce in most of its forms, and, say, Nutella.

If called upon, I will avenge our chocolate's honour, and you will suffer my wrath, sir! Suffer!

Pista, don't trust Aldi, Tesco, Kaufland or Lidl when it comes to Belgian chocolate - they're selling rather lowly products. :wink:
