                The entire "Hysteria" album.
                "I lingered round them, under that benign sky: watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth."

                    one most of you probably have never heard

                    Robert Seidler, "Christian Boy"

                    "You know what's wrong with America? If I lovingly tongue a woman's nipple in a movie, it gets an "NC-17" rating, if I chop it off with a machete, it's an "R". That's what's wrong with America, man...."--Dennis Hopper

                    "One should judge a man mainly from his depravities. Virtues can be faked. Depravities are real." -- Klaus Kinski

                      3 that define the genre for me

                      Plimsoles, Million Miles Away



                      Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, I Need to Know



                      and for me the song that defines "Power Pop"

                      The Kinks, "What I like about you"

                      "You know what's wrong with America? If I lovingly tongue a woman's nipple in a movie, it gets an "NC-17" rating, if I chop it off with a machete, it's an "R". That's what's wrong with America, man...."--Dennis Hopper

                          I'm not exactly clear on the definition of "power pop" so i'm not sure if this qualifies. But, this is uptempo with guitar and i like it.

                          “Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”

                            Beatles - Paperback Writer.

                            I think this was one of the first great examples.
                            If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them. - Karl Popper
