Roxy Music – "Just Another High" (1975)

Maybe you’re thinking of me

Well, I don’t know, now do I?

I have big news for you, boys and girls: 2 or 3 lines is all moved into its posh new digs! 

Here’s a photo of our new start-of-the-art world headquarters building:

To attract and retain the first-class team of researchers, writers, editors, photographers, web designers, and others who produce my wildly successful little blog, you have to offer a whole host of amenities.  

For starters, there’s a luxurious club room where the staff can create while recreating – in other words, where staffers can go to goof off while pretending to be working:

We also have inviting coffee break/kitchen areas:

A employee pool is de rigueur for tech companies these days – no Silicon Valley startup would dream of getting from early stage to venture-funded stage without having a nice pool for its employees:

And while those Silicon Valley b*stards can offer much better weather than Rockville, Maryland can, they can’t offer a full-size skating rink:

While game rooms, swimming pools, and skating rinks help make 2 or 3 lines an attractive place to work, the big draw for the majority of our staffers is the chance to not only be part of my wildly successful little blog, but also learn at the feet of the man who has been called “the Elon Musk of pop music bloggers.”  (Yes, I’m talking about little ol’ moi!)

And if that’s not enough, our new building has one other very special feature that I’ll tell you about in the next 2 or 3 lines.

Today’s featured song is the final track on the 1975 Roxy Music album, Siren.

The babe portraying the siren on the album’s cover is none than supermodel Jerry Hall:

While Jerry was Roxy frontman Bryan Ferry’s girlfriend at that time, she kicked Bryan to the curb soon thereafter and shacked up with Mick Jagger – by whom she whelped four children.  

In 2016, when Jerry was 60, she married media mogul Rupert Murdoch – who was 85 at the time.  Presumably Murdoch gave her beaucoup bucks when they divorced six years later.  (Another example of a man letting the little head tell the big head what to do.)
