<p>I just alluded to too much British blog material in my last post, and now I&#8217;m posting another thing from the UK. I don&#8217;t listen to myself. I was considering a few other songs from the same album, <em>Sleeping with Ghosts</em>, but none of them would have allowed me to have such fun with the title of the blog post. I&#8217;m surprised I never bothered to listen to Placebo before, because they seem like a natural progression from quite a few bands I already listen to &#8212; namely Muse (even though I don&#8217;t like their new album). I probably meant to check them out for a while, especially since now I recall Last.fm throwing their songs up occasionally when I listened to &#8220;Muse radio.&#8221; I just needed a nudge while I was in (where else?) London. Anyhow, they don&#8217;t usually rock out like the instrumental in this post, but I enjoy <em>Sleeping With Ghosts</em> quite a bit.</p>
