I'm not pretending, pickle, I'm just cleverer than you. Of course, I've been cleverer than you since I was old enough to quit ****ting my nap-nap.

Glorious, aren't they? Glorious pop. What's the thread title again?

Stop sexualising me in public, you dirty hobbit. We've talked about this. It's never going to happen, Bendy. I'm flattered - maybe a little curious - but it's never going to happen.

The only bedroom pop you know is the bottle of R Whites Lemonade you keep by the side of your bed at night.

If by "raise" you mean take out a shovel and dig several metres down into the dark, murky Scandinavian soil, then you have a point.

I mean, you could've thrown up Hunting High Or Low or even something like I've been Losing You which would've been palatable, at least. But this is a dirge, Cockers, especially by Morten Torten Horten Harket's high standards.

This thread has briefly transitioned from glorious pop to some glorious comedy.

I always liked a-ha's The Sun Always Shines on TV . I used to think their Bond song was pretty good, listening back now it has moments but the chorus is just a mess.
