Now that I’ve finished all of “JoJo’s Bizarre Adventures”, one of the things that bothers me in retrospect is the Stand-naming convention – specifically, how Araki didn’t name a lot of the “Stardust Crusaders” Stands after musical bands or songs like he did for later Parts. Araki doesn’t always give his Stands names that relateContinue reading ““Stardust Crusader” Stands With Musical Names”

20 Random Songs Ranked [3]
It’s time for the third installment in the “Matt shows off random songs he likes that he otherwise wouldn’t have showed off”. Rules are the same as always – I put my “Liked Songs” Spotify playlist on shuffle and ranked the first twenty songs (maximum three per artist, and no repeats from my previous lists).Continue reading “20 Random Songs Ranked [3]”

The Human Genome Project is completed with 99% of human genome sequenced to an accuracy of 99.99%. “The Return of the King”, the third and final film inContinue reading “2003: The Year In Music”

20 More Random Songs Ranked
Like how I did the first time, I’m going to rank 20 random songs from my “Liked Songs” playlist on Spotify (which has almost 4000 songs) to highlight some tracks that may not have otherwise seen much love. I’m also adding a rule from now on of no repeats between lists … which is easyContinue reading “20 More Random Songs Ranked”
20 Random Songs Ranked
I’ve ranked a lot of random things on this blog, including a variety of songs, but that got me thinking … what if I ranked something truly random? I played the first 20 shuffled tracks from my “Liked Songs” playlist on Spotify (which has over 3600 songs) and ranked them from least good to best.Continue reading “20 Random Songs Ranked”
Muse Albums – Overrated / Underrated
Muse have some of the most passionate fans in all of rock music, and each one has an opinion that they would fight for until their dying breath. So I thought it would be fun to offend all of them in one fell swoop! I love this band dearly, but even I have to admitContinue reading “Muse Albums – Overrated / Underrated”
Best Album Of Every Year Since 1960
I’ve done the best films of every year since 1960, so it’s only fair that I give music the same treatment. Same rules as before – this ranking is a mixture of public opinion as well as my own, and I’m only human so I’m bound to miss a few classics here and there. AndContinue reading “Best Album Of Every Year Since 1960”
My Favourite Lyrics On Every Muse Song
I recently looked at my favourite lyric on every Bowie song (you can see that blog post and its rules here), and I enjoyed making it so much that I’ve decided to make it a series! Matt Bellamy and Muse were the obvious next choice, but maybe not for obvious reasons – I think hisContinue reading “My Favourite Lyrics On Every Muse Song”
