@otakucode Except that not all data has patterns to it like a sudoku puzzle, so this result is not representative of all data. Indeed there are types of data that compress to even 1:1000 given a coding scheme that takes advantage of the patterns within, but those schemes don't do nearly as well ...

@JohnDCrafton It's worth remembering that old computers had no lower case character set, which is why old(ish) computer users sometimes think lower case hexadecimal is blasphemy. :D

Once you see the pattern, this is actually quite fast to generate. The only problem is that if it's done the intuitive way in front of an audience, everyone would instantly see the trick. :D So it's probably unavoidable to have to mix the order around a bit to make it less obvious and that will...

The most amazing thing about Mark King isn't that he is great on bass, although he certainly is that. It's more amazing to me that every time I listen to him, he's better than he was before. It's pretty hard to keep on doing that for 30+ years IMHO.

You can tell that Mark's voice is going when he omits the falsettos, and Mike is a little ragged on some of the keyboard parts. Looks like they are all knackered, but even in that condition, it still sounds good. I wasn't aware that Annie was working with them already in 1986. Anyone confirm t...

This is the "cut" version released on the "Level Best" album, one of many great songs which were ruthlessly mutilated just to fit on the CD. If I sound critical, it's because the cuts on that album were the worst I had ever seen, with whole sections of meaningful lyrics left out. I recommend he...

i think Mike was singing "we can't play no more" near the end and Mark cracked up but kept right on playing.

@TheCarlsonsRaiders The problem is that these cars are on the bleeding edge, which is how they win races. The car has just enough downforce and no more, to maximize straight line speed. In this case it came back to bite him, lesson learnt hopefully. Stick half the car out of the slipstream whe...

@srot77 boon is alive and well, although he is all done with touring and live gigs. that type of thing takes a lot out of you and they are all old men now :D

Mark's comment about being "not a good bass day" seems to be referring to the noise gate cutting off some of his notes. I guess he would not normally use one, but the studio lighting used by the film crew was causing some interference. He clarifies at 0:58.

i'd love to know what mark said at 1:32 if anyone can read lips... :D

戻って来たですね！お帰り！ゆうちゃん頑張って！

Just a little note to the people who think this is fake: it just shows you don't know enough about solving. When I watched this the first time, all I saw was a blur, but now after much solving of my own, I can see the steps he is doing and they are the same ones I use. It should be very easy for ...

@dontillman murpski is correct, a lot of songs got chopped down in Level Best, not just this one. In some cases the missing lyrics altered the feeling of the songs and I didn't care much for that. I like the original versions better :D

I haven't heard this one in ages. At one point it was my favourite L42 number and I think it is again. Thanks for the upload!
