At one time, I loved music videos, but this strip is an example why I can’t stand them now. When you listen to a song, you can imagine whatever you wish in your mind. When you see a music video, you’re locked into someone else’s vision. I’d rather use my imagination than rely on someone else’s.
I admit to being an MTV veg for the first year or so of its existence. I started losing interest when 1) MTV began airing more ads than videos, 2) the “music” stopped being musical, and 3) I graduated college and started my real life. But once in a while, when the moon is full and the wind is right, “Goody Two Shoes” can still trigger my happy feet.

Another band from Liverpool in the 60s – oddly enough, also has bassist and drummer as surviving members -

Visions of partially-clad exploding porpoises have haunted many a hangover…

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a half-naked porpoise. What was covering the other half?
I prefer my porpoises full naked, just like I prefer humans.
