I watched the Good, the Bad and the Ugly once with my dad. I loved it. It was fun.
I didn’t like Once Upon a Time in the West. Most of the scenes are too slow with all there is are flies buzzing around. Put me to sleep.
I did like My Name is Nobody, it’s fun and easy to watch and Henry Fonda is so good in it.

Also, love Morricone’s work on The Mission(The whole soundtrack.). Was thinking it about a few days ago.
… and now for Elvis Costello & The Attractions.
…and now, for something completely different…
Parov Stelar - Matilda (2015)
So I’ve been working with this customer whose name is the somewhat unusual in Spain “Matilde” (with an e, not an a in Spanish), and this song has been popping to my mind each time I’ve worked with her.
Which probably is better than working with her and thinking of Harry Belafonte’s Matilda…
Harry Belafonte - Matilda (1955)
But then, my Matilde is not going to Venezuela. Who would even want to go there, rather than run from there…?
As an aside The grey haired woman that is leading the “ritual” is Laurie Cabot. I and my wife met her. She is a great person to talk with.
…and now, for something completely different…
Rude 66 - Overkill (2005)
One of the perks of having these threads restarted is that you can repeat a tune even if it was posted in the original thread.
BTW, I haven’t found the lyrics, but I like what I understand as “And I love your tears / Because they make me smile”, which is seriously EVE-ish
Nobody posted yet? Too bad.
…and now, for something completely different…
A-ha - The sun always shines on TV (1985)
Last sunday was one disaster of a day. But I’m getting back from it and this tune just popped into my mind. Probably repeated, too, but no in this second thread.
Maria Christina & Morricone
I’ll try a translation of the second song:
Mexico, you are the homeland I would like, but I would like you in freedom, the freedom of my children.
Mexico, in your colours my dreams, Oh Mexico I would like you.
Mexico, you are the love I sought, I sought it in his eyes, in the eyes that never saw.
Mexico, in your sweat my blood, Oh Mexico I would like you.
Mexico, you are the home I thought, the reality of my dreams, of the dreams I no longer have.
Mexico, in your pain my anger, Oh Mexico I would like you.
…and now, for something completely different…
ABBA - Super Trouper (1980)
(No, I haven’t changed my mind about writing song titles wrong. It’s just that Super Trouper, both capitalyzed, is a commercial trademark)
And now you will call those high luminosity follow spotlights Supeper Troupeper, too.
PS: bet you didn’t know this one, and I just found about it from the Wikipedia page on the ST spotlights…
Deep Purple - Super Trouper (1973)
…and now, for something completely different…
Pink Project - Amama (1982)
Later I might send one of my minions with an errand, but today I’ve come to share this piece that just popped in my head early this morning and has been cheering me for the day.

Elle pourrait envoyer un de ses serviteurs faire une course, dit-elle…
Eddie Cochran - Summertime Blues (1966)
…cette vieille sorcière…
