I'm elegantly wasted or I'm better than Oasis. Which do you hear?

"[...] Michael presented Oasis with Best Album, which they won for "(What's the Story) Morning Glory?" When the notorious brats arrived at the podium, Noel Gallagher looked at Michael and said that a has-been shouldn't be presenting awards to "gonna-bes".

"Michael and the engineer spent the next hour or so adding layers to the chorus of the album's title track, "Elegantly Wasted,"

"I've been listening to this chorus over and over - great song, by the way, guys - but I've got to ask, are you saying "I'm better than Oasis? I swear I hear that on the backing vocals," the DJ said. Andrew's face flushed while Michael sat in silence, smirking like the cat who'd swallowed the canary."

“Money for Nothing” is a single by British rock band Dire Straits, taken from their 1985 studio album Brothers in Arms. The song’s lyrics, considered controversial at the time of the song’s release, are written from the point of view of a working-class man watching music videos and commenting on what he sees. The song featured a cameo appearance by Sting singing background vocals, as well as the signature falsetto introduction and backing chorus, “I want my MTV.” The groundbreaking video was the first to be aired on MTV Europe when the network launched on 1 August 1987. -wikipedia

Misfits are an American horror punk band often recognized as the progenitors of the horror punk subgenre, blending punk rock and other musical influences with horror film themes and imagery.

Founded in 1977 in Lodi, New Jersey the original lineup consisted of singer and songwriter Glenn Danzig, bassist Jerry Only, and drummer Manny Martínez. Danzig and Only were the only consistent members throughout the next six years. During this time they released several EPs and singles, and with Only’s brother Doyle as guitarist, the albums Walk Among Us (1982) and Earth A.D./Wolfs Blood (1983), both considered touchstones of the early-1980s hardcore punk movement.

Misfits disbanded in 1983 and Danzig went on to form Samhain and then the eponymous Danzig. Several albums of reissued and previously unreleased material were issued after the group’s dissolution, and their music became influential to punk rock, heavy metal, and alternative rock music of the late 1990s and early 2000s. -wikipedia

“The Legend of Xanadu” is a single by Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich that reached number one in the UK Singles Chart in 1968, and was the group’s biggest hit. As with many of their singles, it was written by songwriters Ken Howardand Alan Blaikley, and like many of the group’s recordings, it features novelty elements — in this case a trumpet section and the distinctive sound of a whip cracking in the chorus. -wikipedia

Good bye, David Bowie. Thank you for your music. Thank you for, as my friend put it, “Other worldly talent.” To this day, your concert was the best I’ve ever attended. Dance magic dance.
