Many of us came to the conclusion last week that 2 minutes and 42 seconds is the perfect length for a pop song, after reading a post by Joshua Allen posted this article on The Morning News.
According to Wired.com's Listening Post there's been a bit of a brou-ha-ha over the very originality of the idea for that article.
Apparently John Scalzi, of the blog "Whatever" posted a similar theory in December of 2004. So is a blog post like a melody, picked up and re contextualized ... MORE

_...Oh boy About a lucky man who made the grade And though the news was rather sad Well I just had to laugh I saw the photograph He blew his mind out in a car He didn't notice that the lights had changed A crowd of people stood and stared They'd seen his face before Nobody was really sure If he was from the House of Lords.

Before anyone jumps down my throat, it's not my opinion, it's an article in today's Irish Times. Still, a pinch of salt to go with a generous helping of Beatles adulation does no harm. Just strange that the IT website lists this as an editorial piece... David Adams It has a few decent tracks, but they stand in stark contrast with the surrounding acres of self-indulgent, Goon-like nonsense.

Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band Razorlight - With A Little Help From My Friends Kaiser Chiefs - Getting Better The Fray - Fixing A Hole The Magic Numbers - She's Leaving Home Oasis - Within Yo...

Of course. You had to see it coming. Maybe not a psychedelic band per sé, but definitely the people responsible for teaching little billy how to "drop out."
The long standing rumor is that the title was code for LSD. Well if the drugs didn't give you flash backs, then Yellow Submarine probably did. I probably would have chosen I Am The Walrus, Glass Onion, or even Revolution #9 as trippier, but this is definitely one of the ground breakers.
