I have a confession to make. I was convinced up until few minutes ago that the "Simon says" game was first coined in Die Hard with a Vengeance and that everyone was just quoting the movie...

I never even knew such a game existed.

I'll listen through the Megadeth discography when I feel more like it. In the meantime, I have another candidate:

Bruce Dickinson (have heard: most of The Chemical Wedding)

Not even this, based on the game?

Winter is starting to take shape (winner, as the Americans day).

Today we got some as well. But the snow that came this morning is already raining away. A good thing, as I'm not getting the new winter tyres for my car until Saturday.

Finish listening to The Chemical Wedding, then listen to Accident Of Birth and Tyranny Of Souls first, then Skunkworks, then Balls To Picasso, then the first 3 tracks of Tattooed Millionaire. If you’re desperate for more beyond that, check out The Best Of... for a couple new tracks and a number of B-sides.

Also check out the bonus disc of Balls To Picasso, it’s better than the actual album. And personally I’d just listen through the entirety of Tattooed Millionaire. It’s a fun album, just kinda daft in a lot of places.

No.

The mastering on the deluxe editions gives me a headache, so probably not.

Oh, and thanks to this post from a couple of weeks ago, I gave Darkside Of Aquarius a listen.

You never heard that amazing Roy Z riff in Dark side of Aquarius on the left side?

I had to turn it off halfway through (for unrelated reasons), but I can still remember the chorus. If that's the best Accident Of Birth has to offer, I'm going to love it.

That reminds me of Uno. Don’t know this Simon dude.

It's a kids toy from the 80's, the lights flash in sequence and you have to remember the sequence and repeat it. Stewie was playing it in an episode of Family Guy

I'm pretty sure there's a sci-fi short story where something very similar turned out to be an alien gadget.

I actually thought it was late 70s....

Oh yes, I guess I've seen it in Family guy. Well, if it's from the 80s then I don't see what the fuss is about, let alone in freaking northern Europe. I don't care what Simon says.

We had the concept of Simon Says, but not the toy.

Well, you still listen to Iron Maiden.

Simon says "Try to kid yourself that you don't care."

Music is timeless.

So is Simon Says. The game, not the toy. Never seen that before, but the game is quite a fun one I used to play a lot back in recess at school when I was younger.

Yeah you're probably right, I remember people having them rather than it being the latest trend

 

[LooseCannon]

Fuck Simon Says. Red Rover's where it at.
