EXPLAIN TO ME THE MEANING OF THAT "LONG LIVE MODESTY." ONE OF THOSE THINGS ABOUT PEOPLE I'VE NEVER UNDERSTOOD. DOES SOMEONE HAVE A HAIRTRIGGER? IS THE TRUTH PERHAPS TOO HARSH? WELL, IT IS WHAT IT IS. I SIMPLY CONDUCTED AN ANALYSIS OF THE OFFER. THE FACTS ARE THESE. DO YOU THINK I'M SHOWING OFF? WELL, IT'S A MATTER OF POINTS OF VIEW. I HAVE ONE A LITTLE DIFFERENT FROM THAT OF THE MASSES, IT SEEMS. DOES IT BOTHER YOU? I DON'T CARE; FOR SOME TIME NOW, SCRUPLES HAVE NOT BEEN PART OF MY STANDARD EQUIPMENT. AND IF SOMEONE NEEDS A REFRESHER, AND HERE I AM NOT ADDRESSING ANYONE IN PARTICULAR, I REITERATE: COMPETITIVE RATES AND QUALITY, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!

ehm...one of SOMEONE ELSE would like to teach you grammar. I can offer tutoring in Italian, history, geography, math, drawing, mechanics, chemistry, and technology. Graduated with honors (100/100) from "C. Olivetti" in Ivrea on 29/6/2001. If you're interested, I also won a free writing competition. I haven't lost at "scarabeo" in four years. I know the basics of free thought and free action, and I don't give a damn if the ignorant masses can't understand my line-up. I'm unclassifiable, and I'm proud of it. COMPETITIVE RATES AND QUALITY (money matters, it's the harsh truth...)

Damn, Gilmour has hit rock bottom... but did he really need the money? I'll retreat to my Depeche Mode hermitage and have a good laugh watching all those clueless ones tearing their hair out beneath the stage of various Ferrom Menecazzo, Boyzone, etc. at Top of the Pops or MTV—STRICTLY ON MUTE!!! AND SONGS OF FAITH AND DEVOTION BLASTING. I said.

it drives me CRAZY incomplete too... but I don’t think it’s the same feeling as superintruder. ah, I join the anonymous: where are the boyzone?

I'm sorry, but I can't resist. The title itself: "Music for the masses" is a masterpiece of ambiguity (is that a word?). A desire to reach the masses? Irony for how they were snubbed in England at that time? Irony in the fact that (if all the above is true) it's actually an album dedicated to a select few "chosen ones" capable of understanding it in its most hidden corners? Or is "the masses" referring to those decimated by war?
That trip to Asia in 1982 might have inspired more than just "construction time again" (I'm still talking about Vietnam and similar issues, and the multinationals). And now I'm really done. Sorry if I've gone on so much, but this album (I should say concept album, if the thesis is true) has been on loop for days and I don't even know which one is my favorite anymore...

(I) I haven't really verified this last one. If anyone has had the chance... maybe I'm just overthinking it, strangelove is a love song, never let... is really dedicated to Fletch and little 15 is about a girl, and nothing means exactly what its title suggests. One thing remains: the fact that the songs lend themselves to a myriad of interpretations, double meanings, etc., makes the album something that goes beyond simply being beautiful music. Chapeau. And anyway, the artwork is perhaps second only to those of "a broken frame" or "construction time again" (by the way, isn't that mountain the Matterhorn?)

1 - "And what do you think about Moonlight Sonata!? Read here..."
On November 12, 1940 — or so the story goes — British intelligence allegedly intercepted German plans for Operation Moonlight Sonata, a massive air raid scheduled against the cathedral and city of Coventry.
Many true believers, including writers of espionage and science fiction novels, have taken the premise that British leadership failed to evacuate the city or mount air defenses to protect the famous cathedral (not to mention more than a score of aircraft factories) for fear of revealing that Enigma — Germany's "unbreakable code" device — had come into Britain's possession.
Whether the Enigma story is apocryphal or not, it's true that on the night of November 14, 1940, Coventry became the first English city to be destroyed in World War II and the only one to lose its cathedral.
During Operation Moonlight Sonata, 545 people were killed, and nearly five thousand injured. But the Enigma secret was protected. It has even been said that Ultra — the British decryption program — was the "brains" that enabled the Allies to win the war.
2 - "Well... strangelove in front, pimpf + agent orange in the back, conclusion of music for the masses with a 20 sec. ministrangelove (with glass breaking), therefore the pivot of the concept that encapsulates and closes the album, a we'll meet again (soundtrack of Kubrick's film) that echoes the brilliant refrain of Gore's strangelove... but much slowed down... I don't know... too many coincidences..."

mmmm...I'm slowly getting used to it. The most important thing is the content; apparently, we will have something more than just a connection to the previous holy monsters... then I'll share something that I picked up directly from a well-informed source about 013. It’s still about MFTM:

oouuuuuu?!!!! Do you know Italian? DID YOU NOTICE THAT I USED THE CONDITIONAL?

Hehe! Let's just say that in those days, a pint was just right. By the time of the Devotional, though, I think it had become four...! Thanks for your attention. Oh, don't miss "playing the angel," with the DM logo (look at the "E"s, even though I hope that's not the real cover) inspired by the ching philosophy...
