The Big Star Radio City thread

Message Bookmarked

For some reason i created a link on the "Am I the only one who thinks Big Star's "Radio City" is completely overrated?" thread, on my long post, the word 'games' in 'power-games' links to some cruddy site that i haven't even, to my knowledge, visited. So something in my computer did this, i don't know what.
Now, i've read the C**** thread on this board, and Dan's comments about linking; i must apologize because i am utterly computer-illiterate and i do not know how to link, i'm very stupid and i'm sorry.
Could you see your way to getting rid of that link and replacing it with the word 'games', and i will try and learn how to use this thing properly. Also if my computer does this again, i will investigate fully. I understand this is exceptional. Thank you.

Then could this thread be deleted? Or is that asking too much?
Thanks

I'm going to leave this thread so that site coders can look at your original message:

On the whole the songs on it are not genius, you could make a case for a few but for me it's the performances, the ragged guitar, manish world-weariness vs boyish idealism. The stories from #1 Record have got really complicated, the relationships have gone beyond sour and turned into nihilistic sexual power-games/sleeping around, everything's fucked up by drugs and stupidity.
I dislike the tweeness of much of #1 Record, this is a balls-out no apologies given record, the nastiness is inspiring. Half the tracks actually could have been on The White Album, 'You get what you desrve' and 'What's Going Ahn' in particular sound like outtakes from that record. Which to me is a recommendation.
