I also have to sing it before school on Mondays (waste of time and it cuts up English time UGH). The acknowledgement of country is in every assembly - and in my school only the school captains and prefects do the acknowledgement.

Every school does things differently for parades. So, my high school chooses not to have the Australian anthem every parade only does on certain occasions. As for acknowledgement only the head coordinator for the grade would do it.

wait that'd be a pretty funny copypasta

chuft I know that possessor already said it. But acknowledge of country is were you respect the past, present and future of indigenous and Torres Strait people of how their land was stolen and the way that they were treated in past around 1800’s when the British came to Australia

[possessor]

that's cool but
"I would like to acknowledge that we are here today on the land of the Darug people. The Darug people are the traditional owners of this land. City of Parramatta Council also acknowledges the present Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, who now reside within this area."

Cover art obviously by H.R. Giger of Alien fame.

Another HR Giger album cover art. Still one of my Favorites
as far as album art goes. Think it was Giger's first.

51 years later still as relevant as the day it was written.
No doubt Greg Lake read Dune. Not sure though if this
song was inspired by the Butlerian Jihad.

Mankind creates AI machines. AI Machines Turn on Mankind.

Man alone; born of stone;
Will stamp the dust of time
His hands strike the flame of his soul;
Ties a rope to a tree and hangs the Universe
Until the winds of laughter blows cold.

Love those lyrics

[chuft]

[boredjedi]

Hmmm, don't remember that one but I do remember this one

One of the few covers that's a bit better than the original

[chuft]

That was from their second album. Tracks I am posting are from their first.

Of course, this is their third band. Before being Love and Rockets they did two albums as Tones On Tail. This playlist looks like it has both of their albums' worth of material.

You've probably heard this one

It has been used on a lot of soundtracks

I heard it on a Stranger Things episode to my surprise.




And before Tones on Tail, they were of course in Bauhaus.

Tones on Tail yup. And 0:37 Familiar faces.

[chuft]

It's....in the can

[possessor]

Yep, I am listening to Makoma over and over again

African gospel songs always range from 4-7 minutes..
The fact they're frickin awesome make up for that

[chuft]

And Peter Murphy went on after Bauhaus to do his own stuff.

And Peter Murphy went on after Bauhaus to do his own stuff.

That does seem to be the trend. Going solo. Like Don Henley from the Eagles to a successful solo career.

[chuft]

Great tune. He had some very good ones like Boys of Summer and Dirty Laundry.

[boredjedi]

Yup. I had posted the Boys of Summer in one of the other listening to threads. Don't remember if I had posted All She Wants To Do Is Dance.

For everyone who liked my Tony MacAlpine posts.

I personally think "Trilogy" is Malmsteens best album, although "The Yngwie Malmsteens Collection" is pretty good (I don't know if it counts though, since it's a collection and not an album)

[boredjedi]

Yngwie Malmsteen now we're talking
