You live in Sweden yet prefer Norwegian Shining over the Swedish one

Of course. Thr Swedish one sucks.

This makes you my new bff. If you ever are convicted of a crime, I will do all I can to be on your jury. *wink wink* all in the name of Bowie.


Edit:
If ever you are convicted of ANOTHER crime, inmate, I'll sit and chair your jury. I'll see if I can reward you with damages too. Not too up on law but I'll make it happen.

In the meantime, if you need any cigs, shanks, or a "saw shaped" birthday cake delivered, I'm your man.

I like Andrew Lloyd Webber (at least the ones I've heard). I'm pretty sure I'll rank Cats and maybe Starlight Express above Phantom though

Both decent soundtracks imo.

Nice to see some love for Tom - I have both Borderland and Modern Art by him, hoping to pick up his collaboration with Gretchen Peters (One To The Heart, One To The Head) someday.

I love Cats, but I've been a big fan of the Phantom soundtrack ever since I saw it on Broadway.



I'm always surprised when someone has heard of Tom Russell because he used to play at a local country bar many years ago, so I always think of him as a local artist. He was amazing to watch live, and I've been a fan of his ever since.

Always happy to surprise a lady with something
