That doesn't surprise me, but that "phenomenon" exists also elswhere, which doesn't make things any better of course.- I was actually a bit confused by your use of the term "mammon" in this context. I know what "un mammone" means in Italian. In English it is "mama's boy" actually. lol "Mammon" in English is about material possession in a negative sense: Materialism, greediness, etc.

Unfortunately, over here there is no other video available for Maisha's "Azure".

Here's an alternate playlist incl. the video that works here in Europe.

Please note: Each playlist should include 11 tracks.


@ Kees
It might be helpful to include the playlists in the OP so that everyone can find them?
Btw. Are you sure that Nickie wants to participate in this poll?

Wonderful! Thank you, George!
But, indeed, the video of Azure doesn't show up for me...

Amos Goldberg (professor of Genocide Studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem): Yes, it's genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion.

I'll stick to my first and only suggestion. I was away for the long weekend and can't think of anything else right now. So my nomination will be:

Thanks to Kees and Christian.

I'm busy with my work at school. Italian schools finish lessons in these days, you have no idea how much the Italian schools are "mammon schools", completely dominated by women, where female teachers see a child to cuddle in every pupil!

the only song I can think of here, a bit long, if it's not a good fit, then that's that!

It is probably time to choose our nominations so I can put up the poll (if possible tomorrow night...?).
I will nominate Michel Portal - Histoire de vent.

Thanks to you and Kees for the write-ups. That Spinal Tap song is not from the film soundtrack (1984), it is off the Spinal Tap "Revival" album, called Break Like the Wind, which came out in 1992. I rather think that it gets rather too overlooked. Spinal Tap is interesting because it is both a fictional band with David St. Hubbins, Nigel Tufnel, and Derek Smalls and also a real band that writes music, performs, and tours with Michael McKean, Christopher Guest and Harry Shearer taking on the personae of St. Hubbins, Tufnel and Smalls. I got the album Break Like the Wind when it was fresh (well as fresh as breaking wind can be) and was lucky to see Spinal Tap perform live in the early 90s. The album had a couple of hits in North America with The Majesty of Rock and Bitch School. A favourite of mine is Rainy Day Sun. They have come out with more music subsequently as Spinal Tap and also under their The Folksman guise -- The Folksman have opened for Spinal Tap, which required both a costume change and a change of mindset. Talented actors, comedians and musicians, I think.
