Bazza Posted November 10, 2015 Report Share Posted November 10, 2015 Who are you? Who, who, who, who? Who are you? Who, who, who, who? Who are you? Who, who, who, who? Who are you? Who, who, who, who? I woke up in a Soho doorway A policeman knew my name He said, "You can go sleep at home tonight If you can get up and walk away" I staggered back to the underground And the breeze blew back my hair I remember throwin' punches around And preachin' from my chair Well, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) Tell me, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) 'Cause I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) I took the tube back out of town Back to the rollin' pin I felt a little like a dying clown With a streak of Rin Tin Tin I stretched back and I hiccupped And looked back on my busy day Eleven hours in the tin pan God, there's got to be another way Well, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) Who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) Come on Tell me, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) Who the **** are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) Who are you? Ooh wa ooh wa ooh wa Ooh wa ooh wa ooh wa Ooh wa ooh wa ooh wa Who are you? Who, who, who, who? Who are you? Who, who, who, who? Who are you? Who, who, who, who? Who are you? Who, who, who, who? I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) Come on tell me, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) 'Cause I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) I know there's a place you walked Where love falls from the trees My heart is like a broken cup I only feel right on my knees I spit out like a sewer hole Yet still receive your kiss How can I measure up to anyone now After such a love as this? Who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) Come on tell me, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) Tell me, tell me who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) Come on come on who? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) Who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) Who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?) Come on tell me, who are you? (Who are you?) I really wanna know I really wanna know Come on tell me, who are you, you, you, you? Who are you? You missed the best verse: Let me tell you who I am I am the man That is scared of concrete For you I have a plan I put my money in the bank I don't keep it in my hand And sometimes it all goes wrong I make a stand Whenever, I walk down the street I feel afraid People want there money cause they want to get paid All I want is a little love and to live my life And all I want for return is my very own wife Why do people in red Who are you who do you fear When I take this knife and in your eyes I sneer When I look at the people who came from the sixties Up through the nineties now we reach this pentacle Understand that the reason to exist Is that life is something that you live have to persist Who could just forget the place where we came My name is Pete Townshend we want you just the same Who are you Who who who who are you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazza Posted November 10, 2015 Report Share Posted November 10, 2015 Apparently the Steve Jobs movie is a flop. Despite all the praise it is getting from Hollywood critics and the like. It's weird, how offended some in the Hollywood set seem to be that folks aren't rushing to see it. I suppose to the tech gurus out there, he's either a patron saint or the second coming of Edison (As in ripped off folks and knew how to market), but to most folks, he made a big splash, made his millions, and died. Movies about Silicon Valley and so on have been done, so this movie really just sounded... dull. Add to this that you couldn't escape the marketing if you watched TV at all. It was so darn pervasive that I know I felt something of a growing contrariness about it. The more times they showed those commercials on TV, Hulu, Youtube etc, the more and more I wished the movie would just go away. Maybe I wasn't alone in having a kind of hype resentment. Is it a good movie? Very likely. Does that in any way engender an obligation on the average movie goer to see something that doesn't interest them in the slightest? No. But Hollywood (At least many in it) seems to have a hard time realizing that. They bitch and whine about superhero movies and/or action films getting all the love (And they take that money as they whine all the way to the bank). Look, people can love dramas and agree with the critics. To this day, the I am very glad I saw the King's Speech. But sometimes I think Hollywood's movie people aren't just disconnected from the populace, they're actively disdainful of that public unless the public claps and cheers to their every offering they claim is worthy. Why am I posting about this? I'm not sure. Maybe I'm ironically emulating Hollywood by expecting folks to gasp in wonder at the "pearls of enlightenment" I drop here Maybe I'm imagining that disdain and am totally wrong and would like someone to tell me "Dude, it ain't so." Maybe I'm bored. Eh. Still rather be posting than watch a Steve Jobs movie. Update: Steve Jobs movie is unceremoniously dumped out of theaters http://www.cultofmac.com/396493/steve-jobs-movie-is-unceremoniously-dumped-out-of-theaters/ Aaron Sorkin and Danny Boyle’s Steve Jobs movie had another disastrous showing at the box office over the weekend. With earnings declining more than 69 percent from the previous weekend to just $823,000, the movie was dumped from 2,072 screens — more than any other film. By comparison, the new Bond movie Spectre took $73 million in its opening weekend. To give you a sense of how big we’re talking, the original box office projections for the movie’s debut weekend were between $15 and $19 million. As it currently stands, the film has so far earned just $16,684,073 in its entire theatrical run — not only less than many thought it would make in three days, but barely more than the 2013 critical failure Jobs, starring Ashton Kutcher.

When people in the office start grousing and griping and grouching I play YouTube videos of The Joy of Painting. Everyone is fine and chuckling within 10-15 minutes.
