No bonus points for originality, but after using U2 last year, I fell back on this ABBA classic from their 1980 album Super Trouper. Happy New Year to all of you! Art Rock score: 8/10 (great song, I'd put it on my MP3 player)
About me: Dutchman, married to a beautiful and highly talented artist from Shanghai. Although my education (PhD chemistry) is very much associated with the left side of the brain, I like to use my right side for my hobbies: music, art, photography.
About this blog: I started this blog in 2006, just wanting to share what I considered interesting pieces of visual art and music. I suffered from blogging blues for most of 2008, but making a fresh start in October of that year has done wonders for my inspiration. In case you did not notice, most posts end with a small symbol... just click that for the relevant link. All pictures in my blog are hosted on blogger - if some do not show up (the red cross syndrome) it is a blogger hiccup. Right click and selecting "show picture" should do the trick.
My other blogs: In December 2009 I started a parallel blog, Art's Potpourri, for subjects that I think are interesting, but not fitting for my main blog.
In January 2013 I revived an old music blog: Countdown to Ecstasy will list my 100 favourite pop/rock/ballad songs from five decades.
