Lamborghini — especially with parmesan cheese and a nice Cabernet.

Spiders or scorpions?

A ginger sling with a pineapple heart,

a coffee dessert, yes you know it's good news...

Both spiders/scorpions are horrible to contemplate  (tho really interesting for connoisseurs) but I’ll choose scorpions for now since they aren’t the ones leaving face-height webs spanning the garage door every night.

Pet Sounds or Dark Side of the Moon?

Paul: Yeah well… first of all, we’re bringing out a ‘Stamp Out Detroit’ campaign.

Never heard of an album called Per Sounds so I’ll go with DSOTM. a-hard-days-night-george-4

Um… the first one, although there’s a third OTH&FA that outdates Zeppelin. 

Baby or Puppy?

That’s funny you mention those two videos, I’m always so annoyed how the second video turns up first when I search for Over The Hills And Far Away. 

Anyway, the former. I really gave the Nightwish version a try but I can’t stand this mixture of Hard Rock and Medieval sounding music. And the truck driver’s modulation at the end of the song is just awful. Besides,  the Led Zeppelin version is ingenious anyway, so that wasn’t a hard choice. 

Moptops or Mustaches?

To SWR, baby. At least they grow up.
To Martha, moptops. I don’t like facial hair much.

Machine for me-I love how coldly electronic and bleakly industrial it is, like audio accompaniment for staring at that Battersea Power Station on the cover.

Arnold Layne or See Emily Play?

Paul: Yeah well… first of all, we’re bringing out a ‘Stamp Out Detroit’ campaign.

Forgivable mistake, though, because Welcome To The Machine is in my opinion the most Animals-like track on Wish You Were Here.

Arnold Layne or See Emily Play?  

Hmm, tough one. I’ll have to go with See Emily Play for nostalgic reasons, but only just.

NON-FLOYD one this time. Paul’s granny s—: Honey Pie or When I’m Sixty-Four ?

Making music, after all, you need to listen to what you’re making!

A towel or an encyclopaedia?

What knowledge would you get from a towel? a-hard-days-night-george-9  I’m picking Encyclopedia.

The “oh’s” from I’m Happy Just To Dance With You or the “oh’s” from Lovely Rita ?

Telecaster – I love their simplicity and they play great. 

Would you go back in time to see the Quarrymen at the Woolton Village fete, or be stood next to the Beatles at the Apple rooftop concert?

Tough choice, however, I’d choose the rooftop because I’d probably be too excited in the audience too early.

Jaimoe and Butch. Tighter and more interesting rhythms imo. 

Surfboard or Snowboard?
