I'll throw in what's becoming my fav of hers. She's really had a load of great back to back hits in a quick amount of time.
The screaming prairie dog really makes the video.
Great song and great video.

Why have I been sleeping on Dua Lipa all this time?
(er, that sounds ruder than it was meant to be)

Can we have a make good to The Dark Knight? The Dark Knight didn't even get Best Picture/Best Director nominations when it should have won both. The Academy really fucked up that year. Dumb fucks.
Best Picture nominees that year: Slumdog Millionaire, Milk, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Frost/Nixon and The Reader. The...Reader...THE FUCKING READER!!!
Natural's Best Picture nominees: The Dark Knight, WALL-E, Let the Right One In, Gran Torino and The Wrestler.
Sean Penn pissed me off with MILK. Harvey Milk's story is so interesting, iconic, and important.
And they made a friggin boring movie out of it - but it won him an Oscar, IIRC.
I still have yet to see Button, Frost, or Reader.

I have got to quit hanging out at the audiophile forum. I just spent about $70 this weekend on early CD pressings on discogs. It's not like I even have the proper equipment to appreciate the differences. (not true - I can recognize it when I am able to compare, but still)
All of them were $11 or less - apart from a rare-ish 1980's Star Wars soundtrack, which was $28 after shipping. It usually goes for 2x that or more, so I am hoping this one is in decent enough condition.

I have been listening to Sweetener and Thank You, Next all weekend, but this one is in my head this morning.

I didn't see much of her tonight...
That's just how she wants it. She needs to blend in. . .

I'll be the first to admit that I couldn't pick a Lady Gaga song out of a line-up. But I did listen to the A Star is Born soundtrack and am thinking that maaaaaaybe my old ass should delve further. Am I wrong?
At the risk of going a little OT: To go along with what @Brian Fowlersaid, check out this video to get a taste of her natural voice and a bunch of her hits. Even if you don't like the more dancey ones, scroll to 12:35 for "A Million Reasons".

Since jewelry was a topic of conversation in my circle tonight (generally, and specifically with regards to Gaga), here's what she's reported to have had around her neck:
- The Tiffany Diamond, one of the largest yellow cut diamonds in the world
- Weighs over 128 carats
- Last worn by Audrey Hepburn in a publicity shot for Breakfast at Tiffany's
- Estimated value of at least $30 million
She rolls deep.
Sandra Bullock should have stolen it.

I'm worried that Stan's (potentially final) cameo in Avengers Endgame will destroy me.
I didn’t even think about Endgame or Captain Marvel. I suppose he’ll show up in both of those, and it will be difficult.

How does the pitch clock work, then? It sounds like what you’re saying is the batters are avoiding having to step in and take a pitch. Would that not penalize the pitcher?
-
That’s good to hear, anyway. I’m just a bit of a purist about baseball not having clocks. I understand that they probably feel the need to do it in order to speed up the TV a little bit and keep people from changing channels. And it makes me sad that that’s a necessity.

San Diego will go for the billion dollar bats and Dollar General arms because that always equals success. Well it somewhat did for the 1993 Jays
Didn’t the Jays have Jack Morris and that pitcher who crashed his airplane?

Watching Mariners versus A’s game on MLB.com right now. The news crawl mentions a 20 second pitch timer being tested throughout spring training.
Fuck that.

I finally saw the Spider-verse film recently (it was fantastic).
The Stan Lee cameo almost made me burst into tears. What a lovely way to say goodbye. “I’m gonna miss him.”

Probably they'll put together a Collection.
Probably a better choice.

I am listening to Tesla's FIVE MAN ACOUSTICAL JAM for the first time in, I don't know, 15 years? Maybe longer.
So. Much. Nostalgia. Feelings.
Apparently, I can still even sing along with some of the guitar parts.

So I actually looked at the solicits. I may have slightly underestimated the number of crossovers...
Grrr, Marvel. Very grrrrr.

Also talked about the market being oversaturated and if seems it was taken as a shot at Marvel publishing 8 billion monthly books.
Says the guy who publishes all his flagship books twice a month and still charges full price for them.

It seems like MOST (if not all) of the things crossing over to War of the Realms are new one-shots/minis (a lot of which look great, actually). I understand the concern though. Avengers and Thor will be front and center with it.
Encouraging, then.
And there's always Conan - and now Savage Sword.

So BOOM's Buffy #1 came out and it's... Well, it's really a full on restart with a whole lot of changes. I'm not decided yet.
Wow, so Dark Horse lost both Conan and Buffy? That's gotta hurt their pocketbook.

I'm behind this week due to the Snow Day but I caught Avengers, Avengers: No Way Home, Wolverine and the Infinite Watch, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Dr. Strange on the way in. Strange was maybe a half step behind the others (though still clever enough) but all of them were very good with Guardians over the top good. It's easy to forget that Marvel in 2019 is still putting out a lot of good content. (And there's a bunch this week I haven't looked at yet like Wasp, Uncanny, Nightcrawler, Black Order, etc.)
As usual, knowing Marvel is about to do yet another ginormous crossover has made me nervous about diving into their new titles - many of which look interesting.

Surely there will be a Pedro Morales dump before long?

Skid Row - I Remember You Live in Kawasaki, Japan 1989
Those Japanese kids do a good job singing along with the chorus.

Could "never had time for a wife" be the same thing as "confirmed bachelor" and other euphemisms for closeted gay?
