I've got the Live Aid dvd set, and the one thing that stands out (for me, at least) is Queen. Freddie Mercury was a frickin' ROCK GOD.
Zoe: Preacher, don't the Bible have some pretty specific things to say about killing? Book: Quite specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzier on the subject of kneecaps.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Plei, Vortex, did I ever mention that the first concert I ever went to was H&O? True story!
Big Bam Boom? Cause me too!!! Of course, my mother doesn't know that I went, because I was spending the night at my best friend's house and we went. Awesome!

But a line like
I think that was the same, just a woman singing it. So third person narrative all the way around, both versions.

The status is NOT quo.
Oh dear gods. What have I started?

Oh dear gods. What have I started?
For what it's worth, all the H&O lyrics haven't dislodged the "Maniac" ear-worm yet, so I have that to "thank" you for.
eta Except I keep seeing a Kia salesman instead of Jennifer Beals, which just makes it worse.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
And while my veins are small, I really don't think that starting on the side of my wrist was the best plan.
Actually, that's often a good one on me. I was surprised, because I'm a hard stick and I don't see anything there. Sorry about the four sticks, though.

That's so awesome, JZ! AND Vortex!
My first concert was Duran Duran.
Freddy Mercury is such a loss. He was so damn good.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Now tagless for your comfort.
Is Kia doing that stupid Flashdance ripoff commercial outside of Chicago? It's got that annoying song with a male salesman doing all of the varied Flashdance moves around the showroom floor, starting with the running-in-place-while-rubbing-hands-all-over-hips-and-stomach, and progressing to the big finale, having the water splash on him from above. Really, really annoying.
It's airing here and Owen loves to dance to it.
