Wouldn't it be "tangents vex the whorl" or Sah-main Sah-main
It's from one of several legitimately good songs on Cyr / SP v27.

I don't mind this one. The vocals are unbearably up-front, as always, but otherwise it's fine. It's just a simple and straight rock track, something I guess I could feasibly see ending up somewhere on a various "2023 rock" Spotify playlist.

I've listened to it more than any of the other podcast songs (twice) and it's my favourite so far.

The verse is very QOTSA, pre-chorus is the only thing that may pass for SP '96, chorus is a joke.

It is still that, yeah - but the part where they get to the old song (the part that was really initially exciting to me about this whole project) seems to be getting less and less time. And there's less info about the song where it doesn't devolve back into the subject that was discussed during the talk with a guest segment... which no longer involves guests. It seems like they have given up on the guest host thing with the only explanation being at one point on one episode that it's too had to coordinate schedules.

I haven't heard any new tidbits on old songs lately that gets my gills moving... which is still really the reason why I keep coming back to the podcast since this 1 song a week thing is NOT helping my love of Atum.

I did actually listen to the last one, and it seemed Billy was irritated with the knuckle dragging presenter towards the end. Clearly thinking the yapping fool was beneath his contempt, Billy must have realised in that moment that he too was a rat in a cage of his own making.

He just comes across as very human, and very wounded. The online world has psychologically damaged him, and I can't blame him for his inability to rise above it. I have sympathy with him even if he does talk some amount of bollocks.

He comes across as a know-it-all, too.

He does have a nice way of getting right to the heart of the matter, though.

Bill is literally one of the luckiest people in the history of mankind, he's been a millionaire superstar since he was what, 24? 25?

Yes the fact he was able to keep that kind of career for no more than 5 years makes him human but really, all the "emotionally wounded" rigmarole in his case doesn't hold up especially considering how little regard he's had for his fans.

Getting blocked by your hero for asking the "wrong" question, that's emotional abuse.

He's not human. He's a hooligan-hooligan-hooligan-hooligan-hooligan.

There was one point in this episode where he said "at the end of the day" something like four or five times in a thirty second span.

And you got all that from serving them drinks at the tennis club or...lol rofl

Yeah, narcissism and victimism are Billy's personality traits now. He's always on the lookout for proof of someone else's misdeeds, people fail him all the time etc... that's a terrible way to live your life even if you're a millionaire.

I file this one in the same category as the ‘she stabs the empty cock’ song. It’s rock music but not good.
