And if that doesn't get you outside, nothing will.

QotD: Top 5 Break-Up Songs

    What are your top five break-up songs?<br /><span style="font-size:.8em;">Submitted by <a class="enclosure-inline-user" href="http://whatsnext.vox.com/">gt</a>.</span></blockquote>

1. Locked Out by Crowded House

This was my "denial" phase song for my biggest break-up:

crowded house locked out


2. Ordinary World by Duran Duran

And this was the acceptance phase:


Ordinary world- Duran Duran


3. Here's Where The Story Ends by Tin Tin Out

Couldn't find the original on YouTube but this is close enough:

The Sundays - Here's Where The Story Ends

And here's the original:


4. I Quit by Hepburn

And this was the silly acceptance song:

Hepburn - I Quit (Official Buffy the Vampire Slayer Version)

There is no number 5 - but I've really dated myself with these, haven't I?

The Summer of '66

Another one from Mum's old slides: Dad & Dusky on the beach in the summer of '66:


Makes me laugh out loud every time I see it, and I have no idea why.

Dusky &amp; The Baby

Once in a while, while scanning my parents' old transparencies, I come across a photo that works as a piece in its own right, separated from its emotional context. This picture, from a film dated June 1967, is one of them. It's quite, quite lovely.
