Missin' several angels


Go, girl! *

It's the final, final countdown - not merely the end of a week, but the end of a year!

Having depressed everyone yesterday by opening the "Book of the Dead 2021", it's time to (sort of) make amends - with a party. We shan't be hosting a real one again this year, more's the pity, thanks to fucking Omicron ["our gang" will be gathering via Zoom/Teams/wotever instead] - but let's get some dance choons lined up for a (solitary) boogie nonetheless!

Every track on this playlist is from someone who has departed for the ever-growing dancefloors of Fabulon this year - so let's raise a glass to the memory of each and every one of 'em, and Thank Disco It's New Year's Eve Friday!!

Have a faboo New Year, dear reader! Clink, clink. It can only be better. Can't it?

[* Scary fact: the boy in that classic "meme-y thing" is now 39 and living in Boston]

    1. What better way to see out the year than with a dance party?

      Very sad to say goodbye to all these assorted talents, but oh! What a legacy they've left us...

    2. OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, FUCK!!!!!!!

      As if 2021 couldn't get any worse. I have updated the "Book of the Dead", and no doubt a tribute will be on its way in the New Year.

      I've had just about enough, now - make it stop!
