This morning, I am speaking with s lower-than-normal voice that is characteristic of certain ailments, part of a progression of the cough I mentioned the other day. Fortunately, my job doesn't actually require my physical presence (even though my physical presence is still de jure required four out of five days per week under normal circumstances).
What was I saying? Oh, right, I have a cough, it sucks, but not as much as face-lathering sucks. Just like 16-some percent of the way through the months and then I don't have to deal with that ridiculously stupid lather method anymore.
I would be inclined to cut this short, being less-than-tip-top, but yesterday's
/u/Teufelskraft #sidetracked brought to mind another song that I was introduced to in the same era as yesterday's. The song, which had been around for a good while before such introduction, is Brimful of Asha (Norman Cook Remix). That's Fatboy Slim's name; did you know that? I didn't.
I had largely forgotten about the song until a few years ago when I decided to seek it out. I didn't know anything about the song aside from the lyrics I remembered and what it sounded like, and I didn't realize it was a remix of an earlier song, which I had not heard until this search.
If memory serves, identifying the specific remix was harder than one might expect considering that this one in particular received a huge amount of accolades. What really stands out in my mind is this, taken from the Wikipedia article on the song
NME ranked the remix at number 2 in their list of "The 50 Best Remixes Ever", saying it "does what the truly great remixes do – render you unable to enjoy the original".
Finally, I can't not point out that the song itself (original) is tribute to famed Indian playback singer Asha Bhosle.
Now I gotta make sure I'm ready to ^^**cough** start work.
