weird moments in music history
12 Dec 2005I’ve had this damn post{.broken_link} sitting in my To Be Blogged list for months now, and I haven’t blogged it for no good reason at all. Its a post from stevenf{.broken_link}‘s blog entitled “weirdest moments in popular music history.”
It is really really funny, eg:
3. ‘Space Oddity’ by David Bowie
A nice little noodley, spacey bridge begins at approximately 2:43, but concludes abruptly when an apparently drunken tuba player barges into the studio 17 seconds later, and farts out four of the most incongruous notes in recorded history just before, I can only presume, collapsing onto the floor. Only Bowie knows for certain what really happened that fateful day.
And you know, I didn’t remember this farting tuba player so I had to go queue up Space Oddity on iTunes and swing the pointer over to 2:43. Now I’m never going to be able to listen to the song without giggling madly. Curse you, stevenf.
(I got it from ~stevenf{.broken_link}.)
