♫ All I want are illusions Scheherazade, no conclusions Every night, entertain me No repeats, entertain me ♫ On #Sparkstember Day 18, there's a sameness to the world in its plainness. All we want is for Sparksherazade to tell us stories.

#sparkstember day 18 In this house, if one is to use a single plural word, it must be spoken in the stylings of BALLS. No exceptions. Example: “Pans. All you need are pans. To succeed are pans. All you need are…”

#Sparkstember Day 17: Plagiarism Sparks pay homage to… themselves! Reimagined versions of Sparks tracks with Faith No More, Erasure & Jimmy Somerville. Check the stunning video for ‘No 1 Song In Heaven’. Fave track: I’m a sucker for strings so ‘Pulling Rabbits Out Of A Hat’.

#sparkstember day 17: Plagiarism Leave it to Sparks to make an album with covers of their own songs and call it Plagiarism. My favourite track is Pulling Rabbits Out Of A Hat. Although No. 1 Song with Jimmy Somerville is delightful as well. youtu.be/4vgjp7mGYMk

For #Sparkstember day 16, the rest of the ‘one I made earlier’ shared on day 6. Entitled ‘Things Sparks Own’, it features 21st century Ron and 1977 Russell, because… I don’t know. 🤷‍♀️ Gratuitous Sax & Senseless Violins

#Sparkstember Day 16 RussDance Chronicles Gratuitous Airplane Arms is a high-energy club dance marked by outstretched arms, 360 degree turns and constant, feet-together jumping. Emerging in 1994, it is a mainstay in the rave scene with people named Kelly and Joe.
