Storm Thorgerson was one of the greats, without a doubt.

I saw a 70mm print of 2001 at my local theater and it was mind-blowing.
It was honestly one of the most overwhelming experiences I've ever had in a theater.

How does he keep his thetan so healthy?

I only saw the "highlights" they showed on the live stream, and I'm not a huge Stone Roses fan, so I feel I'm highly qualified to answer:

Anyone else read "U2 at the End of the World," the book that follows U2 during the first half of the nineties? It's actually a really great read - as you would expect, the author thinks U2 are brilliant, but it's not too grating (mostly because I really do like their work in the 90s). It's not totally whitewashed,…

"So, I just have to ask - why did you choose this particular urinal, Malingerer?"

Well, I guess you were just better than everyone.

I think Bowie's Omikron theme song is pretty cool (and I like this version better than "New Angels of Promise").

Yeah, "Nicotine" is incredible.

As far as I'm concerned, if it's not "My Brother, My Brother, and Me," it's not Maximum Fun.

I was going to argue that REM and U2 didn't really follow "prescribed popular rock band" paths, but then I looked at their careers and they're actually incredibly similar.

Agreed. It's not a spectacular voice, no, but I've never understood how people could find it so grating. I think it sounds better now that his voice has aged and has a little more character.

I think she needs A Man Da make a vegetable Seyfried?

Yeah, 13 is fantastic. I'd also nominate their self-titled one - it's hard to beat "Beetlebum" followed by "Song 2."

Shady Lane is without a doubt one of the best songs I have ever heard.

Then there are bands like U2, who cultivated a unique and popular sound in the '80s, completely changed direction in the '90s (and produced what I consider their best music), then got scared when it wasn't as popular as their early stuff. And now they've stuck doing the same kind of stuff they were doing in the '80s.

There are probably many, many people out there whose fetish is to have Jeremy Irons say to them: "Mmm. So you could be fucked."

Nothing to do with this article, but on the topic of Dan in Real Life:

Ich bin ein Berliner!

I will never live this down.
