Dreams....

Wierd Al started the sex part of the Rock 'n' Roll movement. Am I the only one who figured this out?

David Bowie said so, in the documentary during my dream. He also, for some reason, found the Police Academy movies hilarious. And he and Boy George aren't on speaking terms.

See, when Wierd Al parodied the Knack's "My Sharona" (as if that song weren't enough), it was all about sex. And so it started there. With him.

There was more, stuff about Arrowsmith, and bands driving around in flatbeds, performing in suburban streets.

Of course, in the 30s and 40s, the record industry was ruled by the companies. You couldn't do anything without their say-so, so music was kind of stale and lifeless. Definitely sexless.

Apparently, the retrospective completely ignored the 60s, and Disco. Oh well. I'm not all perfect.

If only we could not have had disco...

And did they spell it "Arrowsmith" in your dream?

I have no clue. But I'm usually awake enough to remember it's not spelt that way. Ohwell.

I blame being still not all awake yet.

Weird Al IS sexy, damn it

At least he is in the video for The Saga Begins. And let me tell you that I was disturbed when I first saw that and realised that I was sexually attracted to Weird Al.
