Couldn't sing you any bits of any songs from Taylor. I liked Wrecking Ball...but that wasn't her...hmmm Same with Keith Urban. Can't think of one line from one song, but he's huge!! Same with Robbie Williams except I know a few lines. Especially now! I'm definitely outside the mainstream hearing loop. Some popular stuff just sort of floats past without sticking. |

I was so tempted to buy a T-shirt that popped up on Caz's facebook page recently. "I am so glad I am old enough to remember the good bands." Noomah Blue would agree. Regards Cazzesman |

Taylor is really good. Unbelievably talented. You all sound really old! Someone said to me recently, "don't you feel bad going to the concert when so many of her fans will miss out?" to which I replied "I am a fan". This isn't just another pop act. 10 albums, all different. An extremely gifted songwriter, singer, live performer and the marketing...we've never seen anything like it. This is a cultural phenomenon - the likes of which haven't been seen before. And yes - I'll be wearing my 1993 Mil Hanna jumper to the MCG in February (I don't have a Blake Acres one). |

Yeah but…. “as sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti”…! the SERENGETI maaaaan…! kindest regards tommi |

Exactly! For one thing, Kilimanjaro doesn’t rise above the Serengeti....it rises above the Tsavo National Park. You can’t even see it from the Serengeti - they’re about 250 kilometres from each other! Great tune though... |

As someone who lived in the region for some years - and consequently got excited by any reference to east Africa - it is probably surprising that I DO NOT like that song! (So what? You can rightly ask...) Sent from my SM-G970F using Tapatalk |

It always seemed kind of weird to me they kept singing about the rain in Africa at a time when there was a major drought killing hundreds of thousands of people in one corner of the continent. |

Ok, you’ve convinced me, I’m going to make an effort to listen to her albums over the next week. Probably I missed all the hype because I was in Singapore and I relied on my daughter to bring “young music” to my attention, and she was more into BTS and Billie Eilish. |

Mods - can you please remove the emoji from the title of this thread? It’s preventing me (and anyone else I assume) from posting in this thread using Tapatalk. I had to use a browser to post this and the above posts. |

Then there is Coldplay They played in Perth last weekend First two albums were great then it’s been shit Ditto the Foo Fighters after there first 3 albums plus a couple of good songs per album after that Or maybe I’m just old Anyway good publicity for the club although I wouldn’t be surprised if Robbie really does give two shits about us Good for his image |

Onya keogh. I know there's a few MoC fans on this forum, have you heard this band Chat Pile from Oklahoma? Their debut album "God's Country" came out last year. I haven't listened to it all yet but I got very ill at ease when I heard it, knowhatimean. |
