Ok let’s crowdsource this shit. I know there’s some #discworld nerds on here.

I want to make a playlist where I have one song for each book in the series. Eg Thief of Time is obviously Clocks by Coldplay, Pyramids is Walk Like An Egyptian, Small Gods is Losing My Religion. Songs should be bangers and also thematically appropriate. (I have a list for a lot of them, I’ll post it after this has had a chance to make the rounds.)

Aaaaand: go. Mastodon do your thing.

@cascheranno @swachter as above, I also only recently realised the band is Chumbawamba, and not (as we'd been saying since school) Chumbawumba 😱

A: holy hell. TIL it is Chumbawamba not Chumbawumba.

And B: why TF does autocorrect meddle wrongly for so many ambiguities, but Not This!?
