Hi. As you may or may not know, this blog, even though it’s written in English, is run by Portuguese music nerds who, due to being unemployed, have nothing better to do than to tell you what you should or should not listen to. (Oh, wait: that’s probably only me.) However, over the past few days we have become, like many others, very interested in the London 2012 Summer Olympics, mostly to trash our own athletes for spending precious taxpayer money and not getting any medals, even though we only care about football and they have few, if any, support from the government. But, today, we’ve finally won our first, and probably only, medal: a silver one, in canoeing. FUCK YEAH! We’re so happy right now we’re going to point you to Wiaiwya, a blog which has been putting up free song downloads everytime a GB ahtlete wins a medal. While most of them are pretty interesting, none will be as much as Saint Etienne’s (the third greatest band of all time, only surpassed by our very own Mão Morta and Japan’s psych-noise freaks Les Rallizes Dénudés) “Steeplechase”, a nice pop tune, as it is usual from them. You can grab it over here, and if you feel like spending money, you can do that, too – buy the whole compilation. Or send some to me, because I’m running out of small change to buy cans of tuna – which is essentialy the cheapest thing I can afford to eat right now. GOD GET ME OUT OF THIS HELLHOLE
