I'm sure I came across Julian Cope's music back in the day, but for the life of me can't recall what.

Cope's one Top 100 hit single in the States was "World Shut Your Mouth," from 1986. In the early-through-mid-90s, he enjoyed critical acclaim and a fair amount of rotation for his music videos.

Speaking of the Eighties, anyone else remember Juluka's Scatterlings LP?
"Ploughed the moon reached an island Balanced on the edge of the sky But something always stayed the same Deep down inside No matter where I've been the places don't count Summer in a mountain town No matter where I've been the places don't count And I feel let down 'Cause nobody told me
Spirit is the journey Body is the bus I am the driver From dust to dust Spirit is a story Body is a book I am the writer Together we flow We hold on, and when the story ends We hold on, until it begins again We hold on, we hold on...
I never knew I had one Till I saw yours shine Spilling from your laughter Sparkling in your eyes Sharing my confusion, sharing my surprise At finding part of me in you, alive 'Cause nobody told me
Spirit is the journey Body is the bus I am the driver From dust to dust Trying to be near you Searching for a way Listening to your life song Before it fades away We hold on, and when the story ends We hold on, we hold on.
Spirit is the journey Body is the bus I am the driver from dust to dust Now I'm falling, falling away I hear you calling, calling my name Spirit move on, move on Pass my eyes on, on to the next one I will be long gone, long gone Across the distance, this divide I will be with you forever Till you reach the other side So hold on, sing this life song Sing "hold on, hold on, hold on Hold on!"

Also speaking of the 80s, that None-More-80s movie, "Back to the Future," just started on Nick.
Even I won't try to defend that piece of crap.

Eh. I didn't think it was all that bad.
Then again, I'm supposed to love John Hughes a ton, but I don't.

I think '80s teen movies were best when they dealt with teens who felt alienated. I was a teen in the '80s and I sure felt alienated. Of course, I still do.

One magazine, either Newsweek or Time, once described John Hughes' sensibilities as "a bad combination of National Lampoon and Norman Rockwell."

Really a lawn is a pretty silly convention. It's a small plot of grass that is supposed to resemble what exactly?
I've never understood the whole garden thing.
