Nah, my Spanish is limited to Bumble Bee Man level I'm afraid. They say he's going to reissue it with English lyrics, so maybe then. Some people here speak Spanish; maybe they can help you?

Believe it or not, when the pressure became a little too much it was your words that spurred me on. Now I only have three more quarters to go!

I don't think TH appreciates Bumble Bee Man on the level he should. Granted, Bumble Bee Man was never a good character, but I still question TH's motives.

Just before I close this quarter, it's probably a good idea to look at the stats for the first three months.

Out of a total of 384 albums reviewed:

Albums I considered excellent: 122
Albums I considered good: 112
Albums I considered meh: 70
Albums I considered bad: 34
Albums I considered terrible: 20

Albums I did not complete

Ones on which I used the "Oh Hell No!" clause: 0
Ones on which I used the "Three Strikes" clause: 4
Ones on which I used the "Bailout" clause: 39

I'm working on my overall top and bottom twenty for the first quarter, will be back with that later. Reviews will then resume from January 1, as we head into April 2017.
