I'm listening to Vangelis

Really good track called 'Conquest Of Paradise' and well, erm.. I wanted to share it with you.

Actually, I've had it on my itunes about a year now, but I'm a bit drunk and thread wise I wanted to start something but can't offer anything really good - this is Thailand after all.

Okay, Jaysus I have lost weight - I gotta sort that shit out, but the 100 Pipers was there and I'm going to have another and another ciggie and play this song again because it is perfect for this video I have to do.

Living in Thailand makes me lazy and non productive, can anybody else relate to this?

Before I nod off, let me also say that I have applied my abilities with good faith to an insincere, pretentious and greedy couple that run an absolute joke of a production company and do not even register on the FCC radar - thank goodness I am only freelance.

I will always love Thailand, the people here are generally good people but I have seen no advancement in the almost 8 years I have known the country.

Geographically I plan to be gone before Iron Man 2 hits the malls.

Nite.

Vangelis did the soundtrack to "Blade Runner", and is one aspect of that film that still holds up well.

I'd say this isn't one of his best tracks.

Liked the Blade Runner soundtrack and some of his other contributions. He's done well for someone with no formal musical training.

the theme for the mutiny on the bounty was excellent.

If I'd said that what would your reply have been otherwise?
