    Maybe I missed it, but no John either? We have to think of our Australian friends.

    Oh rly?

    if extended whining floats your boat, perhaps

    Musically. Not lyrically. Lyrically, Someone Like You is Dido's White Flag. White Flag wins by dint of having David Boreanaz in the video:

    So I'm guessing a Wham/Queen combo wouldn't be your favourite either?

    Ah, the video of George Michael winning the Queen auditions. That night was all about making it painfully obvious how talented a singer Freddy Mercury had been.

    The worst of the current/recent radio fodder that I have heard of late is that "Adele" - "Someone like you" - The Moo Moo Whining song.

    There may be, musically, nothing wrong with Someone Like You, but it'll be a long time before I can tell. Well after they stop constantly playing it in shops.

    For instance, no saxophone tie, but a jersey with a keyboard pattern.

    You know what? Let us never speak of this again.

    I spent a lot of time holding my Casiotone like a keytar.

    Huh. So. Turns out we don't have nothing in common. Except I'm pretty sure only one of us was wearing a leather tie with a saxophone on it.

    cf. James Marsters.

    Hey Lilith, d'you ever watch a Billy Idol video and feel vaguely surprised he doesn't look more like James Marsters?

    When punk hit, I was listening to Jean-Michel Jarre, Kraftwerk and Tangerine Dream

    Some time in the early 80s I came home with a Jean Michel Jarre album. Appalled, my older brother immediately went and told my mother I was on drugs.

    I... am going to leave that other topic alone. I think we all know where I stand on that issue.

  • Up Front: Hitting That, in reply to Tom Beard,

    if you're attracted to both sexes, then you'll be incapable of monogamy because you need one of each, right?

    I did have someone, very genuinely and earnestly, ask me this: if, being bisexual and in a relationship with a man, I missed having sex with women. Because that's different, right? So how I could I really ever be satisfied when I'd always be missing something?

    But it's always different. Sex is different with different people, and indeed different with the same people. Person. Whatever.

  • Up Front: Hitting That, in reply to Tom Beard,

    I've known some bisexual people who say the same, that they're attracted to the whole person rather than to physical attributes, and if they fall in love then the gender of the beloved doesn't matter.

    The gender of the person doesn't matter much to me. But that doesn't mean physical attributes don't. Hair colour, for instance, seems to be more important to me than gender presentation. I have a strong male and female "type" and they're both brunette. Smart, witty, verbally-dexterous, and with an air of... um... Captain of the Canadian Women's Curling Team.
