what's everybody listening to now?
fb_steve replied to Dokumanju's topic in General off-topic discussions
Have we got any discussion on Pink Floyd in this thread? Just listening to 'Wish You Were Here', I'm still undecided on what the lyrics are supposed to mean, it's such a great song. They are absolutely timeless . -

I'll third that for Stroker Ace! Such a good part of POP. The song before it 'Firesuite' is also great. They are part of three songs which all blend together on Dan the Automator's album 'Wanna Buy a Monkey'. Mmmmm... There seems to be a lot of Rjd2 on snowboarding films, gotta love that! 'Good Times Roll Part 2', '1976' and 'Since We Last Spoke'. -

Bringing up an old topic of mine. A late thanks for the info above! I thought I'd just ask one more time if anybody can recommend some nice Minshukus in Noz. My budget is max Y4,000 with breakfast.
