Yesterday we said, having foolishly trusted the sequence of songs as they appeared on our iPod, that "Point That Thing Somewhere Else" was the first song on The Clean's "Mashed". In fact, it sits somewhere in the middle. Which shoots our point about sequencing down in flames, but doesn't weaken the almighty power of the song itself, wherever it might appear.
Also, we did, as promised, listen to The Bats' "Couchmaster" last night, and were horrified to discover that it came into our life FOURTEEN years ago. Wow, where did that go? The good news is the record itself, unlike us, hasn't aged a bit. "For The Ride" I think I have mentioned here before, a very Clean-like propulsive vehicle of the type you would like to see go on forever. And as Adrienne said, "Afternoon in Bed" is the kind of song that really gets you where you live. My response, "What? Canberra?", was neither funny nor wanted.
