Genrepalooza Presents: FG Radio - Tons of Lithium but very little Chill (2 Viewers)

Round 552

Category: Workin' For A Living 

Song: Police & Thieves 

Artist: Junior Murvin 

In addition to The Clash, Nancy Spungen performed a cover of this song. I'll leave it at that. I will say that in a battle between The Clash and the original, the original is the better version, IMO. 

 
Strings and Things playlist is updated, as is the spreadsheet. Though what's the deal with the one-word songs, are these things that are going on a playlist and in the spreadsheet?

I think that just qualifies as discussion with music. I think we'd need to re-visit any bonus category to make it a playlist. I think the way we were doing it before was taking categories and just making bonus picks, so there really isn't precedent.

Does he play live often around Detroit?

He used to but I don’t think he’s played live in over a decade. Part of the issue he’s a recovering alcoholic and obviously the live music scene is pretty much all geared around bars/booze. He’s just not into that kind of scene.

I'm gonna skin it and wear it as a hat,
On my head, everyday when it's dead.

On my hands, everyday when it's dead.

I'm gonna skin it and wear it as a scarf,
Around my neck, everyday when it's dead.

There is a cat out at the colony named Tina, and she is dying. She is one of the oldest cats. She is somewhere in her teens, which is old for a feral. I've noticed the last few weeks that she has been losing weight. She was still eating great up until the last week. She eats, but she doesn't eat a lot. Recently I've gone there during lunch to see if she is around, and if she is I give her some wet food. She eats about half. I do the same at night, and she eats about half a small can. She also eats the dry a little bit. It isn't easy keeping the others away from her food, but they know not to touch it. It is when I turn around, or go to my car that they try to move in.  She will also get annoyed by them sometimes, and she'll walk away from her bowl. She is allergic to mosquitoes, and has no hair left on her ears from scratching them through the years. The summers are rough on her, and she gets bloody ears and blood on her nose, etc. I give her a flea treatment to try and make her life in the summer less miserable. I crush a flea pill in some wet food. It is prescription here, so I get it from Canada. Anyway, I'm dreading possibly finding her deceased, and I feel helpless, because I can't trap her, and I can't touch her. She still has the energy to jump on things, but she has gotten so skinny. I don't know if she has cancer or if maybe her kidneys are just giving out on her now. I hope she isn't in pain.

When the first song pops into my head for a category now my first thought is I probably took it 150 rounds ago for the same category.

Introduction to Copyediting. It's been crazy. We have a guy who worked for the L.A. Times and everything is timed and on deadline and all sorts of stuff. The concepts have been buried in the weekly tests we have, which are presented in illegible formats because he hasn't figured out the correct way to do it through the university's mark-up program. I could go on, but it'd be too whiny. I'll leave it as it is.

Is he new at the university?  

 
I read a couple months ago that there is a Bee Gees biopic being made. Kenneth Branagh was supposed to direct it, but he had to back out due to scheduling conflicts. John Carney, the guy that directed Once, is slated to direct it now. Barry Gibb is supposed to be one of the executive producers. John Logan is supposed to be writing the script. It didn't say anything about who will be playing the brothers. I hope it really happens.
