So THAT's how we should have beaten the nazis! If only we'd had you during the war, Pat. I'm reminded of an episode of McGyver, in which the bad guy is some sort of neo-nazi. Mac is trying to get himself and some Holocaust survivors out of trouble, and they find themselves trapped in a chamber. Yes you guessed it, gas comes out, but Mac knows what to do, of course, just crouch down because the gas is lighter than air or something. Cue the Holocaust survivor:"If only we'd had you then"...
here... http://music.guardian.co.uk/readersrecommend But I can't actually get to it. And science could mean anything. Have you been to Rio de I can't spell it. Is it far from you? My knowledge of geography is laughable.
My image of Rio De Janeiro is Big-bootied women in bikinis. All good. I want Beastie BOys Sound of Science, and if it doesn't make the final list I'm pulling a parkes. And I can't stop thinking of T. Dolby she blinded me with science, but I'm not actually claiming it.
Rio is partly big bootied women in bikinis, beach and all the usual Brazilian stereotypes, which will be a nice change from the urban monster.
How is Galvanise scienctific? I'm claiming all these:

In current use, it typically means hot-dip galvanizing, a metallurgical process that is used to coat steel or iron with zinc. This is done to prevent corrosion (specifically rusting) of the ferrous item; while it is accomplished by non-electrochemical means, it serves an electrochemical purpose.
D'oh...that's Raekwon. Sorry. I'm sure it doesn't count anyway. This is a tough one. Do you think she's trying to keep comment count down for sanity-saving purposes?
Well, I really want astronomy by Black Star. Though I'm not sure it actually has all that much to do .... Don't Tell!! I love it though. I'll check back after the boys are sleeping.
I saw that, Ejaydee, it's all yours. I don't suppose K. West's Spaceship or Outkast's E.T. count? Redemption song mentions atomic energy. Oooh--Blondie's Atomic! I can't think of a single song that's Actually about science.
Somebody will mention Biology by Girls Aloud. E.T. might have a shot, and maybe Redemption Song, other than that. It's gonna be slim pickings. Of course having said that, I'm sure I'll have loads of donds on Monday morning I hadn't thought of.
Mnemonic recommends Galvanise by Chemical Brothers, which I immediately mega-dond. You see it turns out that "In current use, it typically means hot-dip galvanizing, a metallurgical process that is used to coat steel or iron with zinc. This is done to prevent corrosion (specifically rusting) of the ferrous item; while it is accomplished by non-electrochemical means, it serves an electrochemical purpose."
Remember me this way:
She Blinded Me With Science by Thomas Dolby
Disco Science by Mirwais
Readings In Astrology by Curtis Mayfield, although I'm not sure if that's really a science.
Criminology by Raekwon
Musicology by Prince
Ornithology by Charlie Parker
My Philosophy by Boogie Down Productions
Spacelab by Kraftwerk
Weird Science by Does It Offend You, Yeah?, and also the song from the film which is by Oingo Boingo
Science by Monkey Swallows The Universe, my top recommendation of the week probably.
Ghetto-Ology by Goodie Mob, may not be an official science. Pre-Lil' John crunkness.
Lordy guys - you had your own party going on there! Donds to Blimpster for re-vitalising the This Week's Toto prize. I feel it should be a regular feature as there's so much DROSS out there. Video directors get away with murder. For start, WWII spies did NOT fly in themselves. They were parachuted in under cover of the night (hey! there might be a song there) lest their abondoned plane fall into enemy hands. That video's priceless.

Well the song for a a start. And the the finger tap on the map.

Are those Mickey Mouse gloves?
...but it was all a dream.....
Can anyone find RR?
Is it a bank holiday weekend?
Even the Film&Music section isn't updated.
Where is everybooooooooddddyyyy? They at least give us half, usually--last week's list, or a clue to this week's topic...
Oh come on, I can't have a late RR this week, I'm going away this weekend.
Somewhere fun?
Oh, there it is...Science?
Should be, it's a little town called Rio de Janeiro. I earned it after last weekend, and I was ill on wednesday.
Where did you see it?

I have been before, twice. It's a 6hr coach ride from here. I'm just hoping the weather is cool.
I'm guessing it's not science fiction, but anything that ends in -logy.

and I want Galvanise by the Chemical Brothers, a double whammy.
I'm claiming it! Sampled by Mobb Deep!

OOh, I wonder if robots count, cause I've got a few of those. Or maybe that's just the videos.
I'll take Roots criminology. ANd the ENTIRE phrenology album.
In current use, it typically means hot-dip galvanizing, a metallurgical process that is used to coat steel or iron with zinc. This is done to prevent corrosion (specifically rusting) of the ferrous item; while it is accomplished by non-electrochemical means, it serves an electrochemical purpose.
How about ITT by Fela or Mathematics by Mos Def. It hasn't even started yet, and I'm already trying to bend the rules.
First of all, you know that doesn't work.
Second, where's Criminology by The Roots from?
I knew I should have paid more attention in physics class!
D'oh...that's Raekwon. Sorry. I'm sure it doesn't count anyway. This is a tough one. Do you think she's trying to keep comment count down for sanity-saving purposes?

I'm giving up, guys, I've got ATP to go to in the morning and I haven't packed yet. Ejaydee, will you post the Chems for me?
Astro by White Stripes mentions Tesla and Edison.
Will do Mnemonic, although I'll be hours late tomorrow morning.
Steenbeck, I think you'll find I claimed Criminology by Raekwon before you, ha!
I saw that, Ejaydee, it's all yours. I don't suppose K. West's Spaceship or Outkast's E.T. count?
Redemption song mentions atomic energy. Oooh--Blondie's Atomic! I can't think of a single song that's Actually about science.
Somebody will mention Biology by Girls Aloud. E.T. might have a shot, and maybe Redemption Song, other than that. It's gonna be slim pickings. Of course having said that, I'm sure I'll have loads of donds on Monday morning I hadn't thought of.
Official list...
Sound of Science
Astronomy
E.T.
Redemption Song
Astro
Spaceship
ITT
Mathematics
So if any of these make the final list, and I don't get to it in time to suggest them, 'Spillains will know that I knew!!
