Funky Nosejob

No 10 in 1986. A song with an interesting history, but here’s Darryl Pandy’s interpretation.

Vena Stubblefield, the mother of James Brown’s “Funky Drummer” Clyde Stubblefield, made a fortune from her invention of the hole punch. Prior to its availability, secretaries would have to poke holes in sheets of paper using a fountain pen so that they could be placed in a ring binder.

Is it supposed to be that colour?

So both the ICE and the EV have to deplete their range resource to generate heat.

Don’t think you’ve met the criteria. It has to be a bet builder with at least two legs.

Just because you’re immortal doesn’t mean your limbs can’t be chopped off. Or so I’d imagine.

Similar to people who immediately went out of their way to douse polymer bank notes in sulphuric acid and throw them in a furnace just to prove that the notes were not indestructible as claimed. This is also why if anyone was immortal they’d keep bloody quiet about it, for fear of nutcases trying to prove otherwise.

It's not really an issue because the batteries can hold charge for a lot longer than three hours if they're not being used. Think the latest Teslas can do five or six hours at motorway speeds on a single charge. The electric circuits (heating, lights, radio, dashboard, etc.) of an electric vehicle run off a standard 12v car battery in exactly the same manner as a combustion engine vehicle. Otherwise, they’d have to redesign every component to take the 200v - 800v from the battery pack. The battery pack is primarily used to propel the vehicle, in exactly the same manner as the combustion engine in a combustion engine vehicle, except for a small amount that is diverted to recharge the standard12v battery as required, in exactly the same manner as a combustion engine vehicle. So, to summarise, you are no worse off sitting in a traffic jam in an electric vehicle with your heating, lights and radio on than you would be sitting in a traffic jam in a petrol/diesel vehicle with your heating, lights and radio on. All that’s happening in either situation is that the 12v battery is slowly draining, but will be recharged when you start moving again. Posts about children freezing and needing rescued because they’re in an electric vehicle are simply ignorant scaremongering, which shouldn’t surprise anyone still on Facebook.

Mousse T. - Horny (Boris Gets Edited) “I’m ironing all my clothes”

No. 18 in 1989. Lyrics are still as pertinent today as they were then.

No. 50 in 1987, the early days of electronic dance music.

The fallout from Boli Bolingoli’s trip to Spain merits a mention.

I am (un)fortunate to be born at the tail end of the last generation where people either got tattoos in the navy or in prison. I get that they’re far more popular now, but my rationale for remaining ink free runs as follows:- 1. Tattoos are fashionable. 2. Tattoos are permanent. 3. Fashion is transient. I can’t imagine having to wake up every morning to be confronted by permanent reminders of the things that the late teen/early 20s me thought mattered most in life.

No. 24 in 1987 I’ve still got the 12”.

BBC reporter referred to it as a “Karaoke” rendition. I think she meant “a capella”, but Mrs. Nosejob reckons she called it right.

I guess tastes differ. I think the absence of horns and increased tempo diminishes the song. Anyway, can anyone else give their examples of expectations being dashed?

Those moments in music when two of your favourite things come together yet the result leaves you feeling distraught and questioning your previous choices. In 1979, I had just started secondary school and was under peer pressure to choose between punk and disco. Thankfully, I heard “Going Underground” by The Jam on the radio and recognised the alternative to the previous false dichotomy. Mod Revival was my choice and I quickly fell in with like-minded friends. Late 80s, and a girlfriend buys me a Motown compilation album, based on her assertion that “Town Called Malice” has a Motown beat. A re-evaluation of Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye ensues, but one of the standout tracks for me is “Heat Wave” by Martha & The Vandellas which quickly becomes my Motown song of choice. So, you’d think that The Jam performing Heat Wave would be magnificent. Well, ... Sadly not.

I met him on a Sunday and his heart stood still.
