Some time back I heard of a group of people on the internet who were spending their time creating graphs of songs titles and lyrics and posting them online – in fact there was a whole song chart pool on Flickr that was collecting them all. As a closet geek with a passion for music, the idea appealed to me hugely and I found myself laughing out loud at a couple. Some stood out for me particularly – here are two:

Anyway, at the time I thought it would be fun to create a couple and I promised myself that when I had time I would give it a stab. That was a year ago and I finally got round to doing it. So here are a couple of my own (in the interests of bandwidth I won’t include them all here — the rest you can see on www.tonylankester.com):

I wrote to you before about the sound quality of Tony Lankester’s podcast. Just listening to episode 110 – some people were loud, some were very soft – it’s as bad as ever it was.
Do you have a sound engineer?
If you do, fire him/her.
If you don’t, you seriously need one.
