Colour me beige! (Or: God, princess Diana and the Universe)
(Very fucking Elton John indeed…)
Now, I don’t know why exactly but I still feel that the following announcement is ever so slightly disappointing:
“Astrologists Karl Glazebrook and Ivan Baldry took light measurements from more than 200,000 galaxies, broke them down into their constituent colours and then averaged the colours out to produce a single shade visible to the human eye. The result was beige.”
Beige…?
It’s a bit like being a little girl and dreaming of marrying an honest-to-God prince…
… and then doing so…
… and becoming a media darling…
… and having a verrrry public Paul McCarthy/Heather Mills type of divorce…
… and dying a true Hollywood celebrity style death…
… and THEN having a so-called friend recycle some damn old song about Marilyn fucking Monroe as a ’special tribute’.
Beige…
Thanks ever so much, God.
Oh, and if You want to know where You can stick our collective votive, thanks-for-the-colour-scheme candle, ask Sir Elton.
(I managed to watch for 21 loooooooong seconds…)
