Those who travel very slowly may yet make far greater progress, provided they keep always to the straight road, than those who, while they run, forsake it. Rene Descartes, Discourse on the Method
Lo so che parlo perche' parlo ma che non persuadero' nessuno; e questa e' disonesta' - ma la rettorica mi costringe a forza a far cio' - o in altre parole "e' pur necessario che se uno ha addentato una perfida sorba la risputi". C. Michelstaedter, La Persuasione e la Rettorica

I’ve always appreciated the Men At Work’s funny and intelligent approach; their unique style was another pearl in the vast eighties panorama.

Worth the listening and viewing the great performance: Freddy and the Queen at their best!
Iggy Pop’s Living on the Edge of the Night is an awesome song from his Brick by Brick record.

No need to remember that it was used (and it’s still currently) as the CSI Las Vegas main theme.
One of my own design-sets was inspired by this great song too; take a look here: Who Are You?
Morrissey’s The Public Image is an awesome but less famous song available only in You Are The Quarry (the Extended Version one).
Ironic and sad at the same time, like most of his sons, the lyrics and music flow exceptionally tied together. A sense of peace and tranquillity pervades the whole piece as long as it goes near to the end… and when the silence arrives? Well, you can do nothing more than start thinking about what you’ve listened!
This is his own style, more than simple music, more than simple words: philosophy!
