I am the Water Boy, the real game's not over here.

Trivia learned thanks to Romain-the-rock-music-critic:

- Lou Reed's 'perfect day' is an ode to a day spent without an heroin injection.

It never occured to me before but now it all makes sense.

- Lou Reed's song 'The kids' from Berlin, and its middle section featuring kids crying? They were real kids.

Apparently his producer phoned up his wife and told her to 'lend him the kids for the day'. Surprised, the wife asked him why he would want to bring their children to work during a recording session. The producer said 'Ahhh, don't worry... just lend me the kids!'. He then took them and locked the three of them in the studio booth, left to sit on the other side, and as he was sipping booze behind the glass-window said those words in the microphone: 'Hey kids! You mom is dead'. Ensued 10 minutes of hysterical crying and sobbing. Proof is, you hear a kid screaming 'Mommy!' at the end of the song.

As Romain told me this, part of me tried to feel bad for thinking it was the absolute best musical-trivia-story I had heard in months. Everything in the name of art, baby!

- One of favourite Bowie song has always been a cover of Jacques Brel's 'Amsterdam', and I have yet to find someone who does not absolutely loathe it. Last time I sang it, my mother threatenned to punch me in the head with a frying pan (true story). I just don't get it, the song is better than a fucking Zola novel, the lyrics are absolutely breathtaking, 'And he pisses like I cry / On the unfaithful love'.

But yeah, do you think that with 100 pages to write and only 15 days to write them, I have time to properly update my blog? Yeah, no right? Don't think so either.

John, I'm only dancing!
