I DIDN'T THINK I WOULD FIND SO MUCH SHIT AND SO MANY RIFFRAFF. YOU ALL SUCK, CULTURAL DWARFS LIKE DICKINSON, SCUM OF THE EARTH...

Yesss good Supersoul! There's also Yves Montand who makes a small cameo as the frozen corpse of Captain Mistanguet. In its time, it was a hilarious blockbuster.

No, I am not a theocon; I simply love art, and a CD with these stupidly DEMONIC covers and this epically spastic music can only appeal to overgrown infants, and they are the litmus test for the crap you have in your brain. (Confucius)

Grotesque and poetic. A milestone of the nouvelle vague.

Those musicians who incorporate satanic images or texts into their works purely as a market strategy inevitably contribute to the devil's cause. Additionally, it should be noted that, unlike God, who requires a conscious and loving adherence to His law from man, Satan gladly uses even those who perhaps do not even believe in his existence. As the book *Gloria Crux* states: "While one cannot serve God without believing in Him, the devil, on the other hand, does not require belief in him to be served. In fact, one serves him best by ignoring him." Paolo Baroni

APART FROM THAT, FILTHY BEAST, WHAT ARE YOU DOING QUOTING THIRD OR FOURTH HAND, Camus? Or are you reading Beppe Severgnini? You see, you’re just a schoolgirl looking for a husband... I WON'T CHANGE A COMMA OF MY JUDGMENTS ON YOU AND ON THOSE WHO FOLLOW THIS FILTHY BAND, most of whom are intellectually underdeveloped and physically pockmarked—readers of fiction, horror, or D-grade satanism, or barbaric fools who get excited over a few extra watts. I REPEAT, this comes from my encounters with these clowns; I’ve had to endure them even in rehearsal rooms. They are pompous characters like you who, because there’s a bit of Crowley or Coleridge in a metal sauce, think they’ve discovered culture and esotericism mixed with deadly music, and they revel in it, making movies in their sick brains. I adopt these words, hoping they will be a healthy warning for many:
We would like to conclude this article with a quote taken from the book The Principles of the Sunset, which summarizes our thoughts regarding rock groups that showcase satanic themes in their lyrics or album covers, even without necessarily being satanists. To those, like Respinti, who do not even consider this aspect or attribute it to the nightmares of the bassist (and thus deem it unworthy of real attention), we repeat: "We are also convinced that behind many of the bands making satanic rock, there is not a firm intention to spread occultism, but simply the exploitation of a theme that, due to the sinister allure it invariably exerts on buyers (especially on youngsters), can increase revenue. But we are equally convinced that this observation does not shift the problem even a millimeter. What do you think of a man who solely to scrape together money during an election period engages in spreading propaganda material in favor of a candidate whose political agenda he personally doesn’t believe in? And if that candidate were to be elected, don't you think that beyond the purely economic motivation that drove him, that man has somehow contributed to the election of that candidate? In the same way, those musicians who incorporate satanic images or lyrics into their works purely as a market strategy inevitably contribute to the devil's cause. Moreover, it should be noted that, unlike God, who requires a conscious and loving adherence to His law from man, Satan gladly uses even those who maybe don’t even believe in his existence. The book Gloria Crux states: 'While one cannot serve God without believing in Him, the devil, for his part, does not need people to believe in him to serve him. In fact, one serves him best by ignoring him.'" Paolo Baroni

succulent delicacies... And what about the Vianella duo?

I don't take myself as seriously as Eddie the Head's fans do. Just listen to the new metal guru Alberroni and the pearls he shares with us:
... Let it be clear, despite my now well-established reputation as a joker (not even that much) painstakingly earned on these pages, that the above discourse is absolutely serious and doesn't aim to mock anyone... because it's true... in the year 2007, I discovered that I like ABBA.

Chapter I: More and More Commercial Until the Final Victory!
One of the most beautiful yet slightly disheartening feelings that can happen to me is when I listen to something I've heard a lot about for years but never felt the need to explore, only to discover that it truly resonates with my personal taste...
Let it be clear, despite my now well-established reputation as a bullshitter (not even that much), painstakingly earned on these pages, that the above discussion is absolutely serious and isn't meant to mock anyone...because it's true...in 2007 I discovered that I like ABBA and consider this an Absolute Truth!
ABBA is the quintessential Pop Group; they achieved a worldwide success that (even considering their non-Anglo American origins...) seems inexplicable.
Even if we don't want to, each of us must have listened to at least once singles like "Mamma Mia," "Fernando," "Dancing Queen," "Super Trouper," and of course "Waterloo," and I certainly don't make an exception, but for one reason or another—mostly due to superficiality and prejudice—I had never taken the time to delve into anything of theirs...
...the opportunity came in recent months thanks to a new colleague of mine who is a fanatic of Agnetha, Frida, Benny, and Bjorn, who with his sincere and genuine enthusiasm (due to the fact that he has never had the slightest intention of approaching genres like Progressive, Post Rock, or Death Metal, etc., and in this regard, I recall Borges' statement that he reached 80 years old precisely because he never exercised a day in his life...) convinced me to let go and look beyond my nose...
Unfortunately, he possesses all the vinyl material, so the prospect was that I would have to manage on my own, and as we know, I'm a lazy type, so let's say I didn't commit myself immediately. But since fate (whether we like it or not...) exists, the timely opportunity came regardless on the night of the last December 31st...
Chapter II: December 31, 2007, A Night with ABBA (Based on a True Story)
You should know that this year I spent New Year's Eve alone at home because work commitments prevented me from going to the mountains with friends...
I did have a few at home, but this year more than others, I didn’t particularly feel like mixing with the forced and forced merriment of others, so in the end, I decided to stay within my domestic walls...
After eating a frugal dinner of Kebab, French Fries, and Panettone, I started fiddling with my computer looking for some ideas to update my Blog, ultimately opting for a New Year's greeting message with a related video taken from YouTube...
...typing the classic words "Happy New Year" in the search, guess what popped up as the first option...
Well, this...
After posting this Wonderful Video on my Space, I began watching the others one after the other, not even noticing the Midnight, but since I was alone, it didn't really matter; I became captivated by the seductive and catchy Easy Listening of the Swedish quartet and ended up overindulging until the time (the next morning I had to go to work..) advised me to go to bed decidedly relaxed and hopeful for the New Year...
Chapter III: Waterloo? I was defeated, you won the war.
In 1974 (Great Year, I remember...) the ambitious ABBA was on their second attempt at the Eurovision Festival, having not passed the national selections the previous year with the song "Ring Ring," and since the event was on British soil (Brighton), they decided to present the piece, which they previously showcased in the pre-selection in Swedish, in English to make the most of the opportunity. The preparation for the event was very lengthy; in the months prior, the four toured all the musical shows in Northern Europe. The song was "Waterloo."
