Update: June 2009

Hi folks,

I just want to quickly apologise for the lack of updates recently. Unfortunately, it's the summer time again and exams (and hence revision) call. Hopefully, I'll be able to spend some more time updating this place in a week or so. See you then!

Einfach So ("Just Like That" In German)

Einfach So is a German recording, sung by Angelika Milster, of ABBA's unreleased song "Just Like That". It uses the verse and chorus structure of the Gemini version of the song, but with a different arrangement. Being a non-German speaker, the sound of the lyrics is an acquired taste, but the melody and arrangement really does shine through.

The "So Long" Dance

Now for a bit of light-hearted fun. This apparent "So Long Dance" is quite amusing, and, as the original poster puts it, is 'the best part of the song' - though I shall leave that up to you to decide. ;)

Update: March 2009

Hi all,

I have found it at last necessary to switch to a non-original Blogger site design. While out of choice I would have preferred to keep the same template as the blog had previously, I found that with the recent changes to YouTube videos, they could be better exploited with a wider design.

This change will allow me to embed larger videos, and will also stop widescreen videos from breaking the site design, as was happening with the previous template.

This new template - at least at the moment - is pretty sparse and simple. Whether that is an advantage or not is up to you, but I'll be doing my best to readd some of the features of the old template (and possibly some new ones!).
