I'm one. I actually think it's a terrible, self indulgent, pretentious album, so I might actually be out there on a limb alone myself.

It was the 70s.Funky themes were a thing then.

Huh. Might be the first time I've read an article that argued Paul's album was better than Ace's. Back then the general consensus was "Ace's is awesome, Paul's is great, Gene and Peter's suck." Hell Ace got so much mileage out of his that for years people were anticipating his solo band's debut after he left Kiss.

I am amused by the notion that Superman wouldn't kill anyone when one of the first big beats of the post Crisis Superman was…him killing General Zod. It's like geeks don't read comics sometimes.

My god I need this now.

That song could be about anything and I wouldn't care because I'm listening to the guitar on it. Seriously if I hadn't known going in what it was about I wouldn't have noticed.

I loved the Dune books in the 80s when I first read them.

Starting in September 1997, and up until Metal Gear Solid came out a year later, all I played was either Final Fantasy VII or Resident Evil 2. One or the other. Thing was, I never played any other RE game, but I played the shit out of Resident Evil 2. For years afterwards I could do all the puzzles with my eyes closed.

Dune is no better example for me of the notion that studio heads actually don't watch movies, because if, in the early 80s, you gave David Lynch a shitton of money to make a movie, don't be shocked when he turns in one this gruesome and weird looking. It's what he was known for then.

That's one reason why I loved the first tour Genesis did with Phil as the singer for Trick of the Tail: Bill Bruford was the drummer Phil would join for the longer instrumental sections. Sublime.

I did say over anyone.

Isn't that a bit, I don't know, excessive a description for a guy whose solo career can be best summed up as "inoffensive middle of the road mainstream pop."?

I will walk up to a crowd of people with huge interest in drumming and say, without hesitation, that my favorite drummer of all time is Phil Collins, and will fight them to defend my point. I'd take him over anyone.

People limit Clancy Brown to the weekends?

And these days, it's the BANDS that have names like that!

"Pay to the order of 'Iron Balls' McGinty, one dollar and NINE CENTS!"

The first M:I had a plot that was far less complicated than most people think it was (someone wants to steal a list of spy names, frames Tom Cruise for it after failing to steal it, Cruise steals the list to draw out who framed him) but by today's standards it's pretty labyrinthine.

I think we're the only three people on Earth who know about that album.

Ahh, a commenter on the internet thinking internet comments represent the whole of thought on something. Bless.

Maybe so, but my money remains on the pissed off mockingbird.
