2009

Y'know, I'm going to steal a Neil Gaiman quote via geekchick , since it says this much better than I could:

...I hope you will have a wonderful year, that you'll dream dangerously and outrageously, that you'll make something that didn't exist before you made it, that you will be loved and that you will be liked, and that you will have people to love and to like in return. And, most importantly (because I think there should be more kindness and more wisdom in the world right now), that you will, when you need to be, be wise, and that you will always be kind.

SingStar

• NYE is not the right day to go shopping for songs to download for your PS3 SingStar game. Everyone else is trying to do the same thing, at the same time. It won't cope too well.
• SingStar really shouldn't allow you to do your own karaoke version of Leonard Cohen's Famous Blue Raincoat.
• ...or Joy Division's Love Will Tear Us Apart, for that matter.
• On the other hand, Falco's Rock Me Amadeus is a welcome addition to the catalogue. Although it's not the easiest one to sing...
• ...and if you really want to sing along to Auld Lang Syne, you can get Die Toten Hosen's version on one of the German PS2 releases. Might be a bit hard to find, though. :)
