Not from me no, that would never happen! I'm no fun when it comes to the supernatural.

Hiatus Kaiyote - Choose Your Weapon. That was the album of the week when I joined the album club. I got annoyed with it as it kept going on and on, but I found it harmless enough. Not really my type of music though, despite how much I like Monae. I also like a bit of Erykah Badu.

Um, who doesn't?

Oops, misspelled.

I actually have no idea how famous she is or isn't.

Feels out of my usual comfort zone, but sometimes I dig her music:

Yeah, that really makes all the difference.

Other bands understood that you have to sing like a constipated goat to imitate Nirvana, but they kinda missed the solid songwriting part. Then we got Creed and Nickelback.

1. What's the worst song you've ever heard on the radio?
2. If you were Kathy Bates in Misery, which celebrity would you pick?
3. What was the last artist that you began to consider an all-time favourite of yours?
4. What is the most you would pay for a single bottled water? Consider extreme circumstances and such.
5. What's the last thing that you learned?
6. Choose something that you would erase from the modern world if given the opportunity.

1. What's the worst song you've ever heard on the radio?

Tied between John Cougar Mellancamp's Pretty Pink Houses and anything Bryan Adams ever did. Goddamn do I ****ing hate Bryan Adams.

2. If you were Kathy Bates in Misery, which celebrity would you pick?

Michael Gira.

3. What was the last artist that you began to consider an all-time favourite of yours?

Bargou 08

4. What is the most you would pay for a single bottled water? Consider extreme circumstances and such.

In a desperate situation where I'm on drugs and it's hot out with no facilities I would spend up to 7 bucks on a 16 ounce bottled water.

5. What's the last thing that you learned?

The sample from Billy Woods' "Police Came to My Show Tonight" is from a KRS-One song.

6. Choose something that you would erase from the modern world if given the opportunity.

Religion

1. What's the worst song you've ever heard on the radio?

The mid 90's were hell in Denmark, at least if there was a radio nearby.

2. If you were Kathy Bates in Misery, which celebrity would you pick?
I haven't seen the movie, but I assume she didn't do sexual stuff... so... err... I guess Amy Adams is out of the picture.
Note to self: Remember to remove that part of the answer before posting.

I'd pick Eddie Murphy and make him regret throwing his talent away on unwatchable movies.

3. What was the last artist that you began to consider an all-time favourite of yours?
There's been several over the last handful months, which is awesome! But the very latest would be Nicky Holland. I have yet to hear her other albums, but the self-titled debut is so strong that I'm considering her a favorite just for that one. My biggest discovery this year has been Cristina Branco by far. It's a handful months ago by now, but her music has changed a lot for me. I'm looking for completely different types of artists now, thanks to her.

4. What is the most you would pay for a single bottled water? Consider extreme circumstances and such.
If I was desperately thirsty and there were no other options, then I'd pay just about anything. My kingdom for a bottle of water. Come to think about it, that's about the price they charge for bottled water at the local cinema, and I've bought those more than once.

Frankly, nothing is better than water when you're really thirsty. Water is the greatest thing ever.

5. What's the last thing that you learned?
I read about the largest stars in the universe. Mindblowing stuff and completely impossible to wrap your mind around.

6. Choose something that you would erase from the modern world if given the opportunity.
Smartphones. I hate how people can't stop looking at the damn things when together with other people.
