The Default Language Of Pop Music
I was not sure how to title this but I knew what I wanted to say. Essentially the English expect everyone to be able to understand them by having English as a second language. It's a spill out from Imperialism where a lot of people seem to think it still exists. You see so much that is skewed towards English despite Mandarin being the most spoken language in the world.

Madchester. Top Story - December 2023.
Do you remember Madchester? Maybe I am getting too nostalgic in my old age, but I have been thinking about that very brief gap of time when the city of Manchester was the focus of most of my attention, at least as a musical and cultural force. For a city with so many different bands and sounds in its history, it might seem strange to just pick one moment, but I am, as I said, nostalgicā¦and old. And I know that many of you have commented on how you like to hear about musical moments on my page. So, here I go againā¦

That was embarrassing. Content Warning.
The party was in full swing, the music pulsating through the air, and laughter echoing off the walls. It was one of those lively gatherings where people from all walks of life converged for a night of celebration.

I am a huge fan of music. Some people say my love for music teeters on obsession and they might quite be right. I started collecting records (yes, the old vinyl ones with pops and scratches) in 1972. I was 12 years old. By 1997 I amassed a collection of more than 17,000 record albums and more than 12,000 seven inch singles. At my peak of record collecting I owned 30,000 pieces of vinyl.

Ranking Every Janet Jackson Album.
Janet Jackson is one of my favorite artists and it being 30 years since The ājanetā album, I thought it would be fun to do a little ranking of all her albums. I listen to some more than others, but Iām pretty familiar with all of them. So letās get into it as we sit and wait for āBlack Diamondsā if she is even still calling it that. If and when it comes Iām sure itāll be just as engaging and enjoyable as the rest of these are. Iām mad that I didnāt get to see her this year on tour, but thatās neither here nor there.
