" A Bar Song ( Tipsy ) has held the No. 1 spot for 19 weeks .

It reboots the 2004 rap hit “ Tipsy ” by J-Kwon with keening fiddles and twangy guitars.

Slate 's John Sutter : Shaboozey and Lil Nas X tied at 19 weeks each.

" A Bar Song ( Tipsy )’s song is a roadhouse singalong that traffics in nostalgia for a prior hip-hop golden era.

While it is rooted in rap, it is fundamentally country in presentation, instrumentation, and most especially its copious melodies.

The success of “Old Town Road” was largely a story of how streaming services like Spotify , YouTube , and Apple Music had overtaken the music business.

" A Bar Song " has had America ’s largest radio audience for the past 18 weeks straight.

The song has been tops in all three components that make up the Hot 100 .

A tomb containing 12 skeletons was found in the ancient city of Petra , Jordan , this autumn .

Geophysicist Richard Bates used electromagnetic conductivity and ground-penetrating radar to survey the structure.

Richard Bates was born in Aberystwyth , Wales , to a geologist father and a teacher mother.

He studied geology at Edinburgh , then did a PhD in geophysics in Bangor , Wales .

Bates applied geophology to environmental study: “Stuff with ice and glaciers and climate change, and stuff with biologists on sea mammals, habitat mapping and ocean floors”.

The Groucho Club in Soho has had to shut its doors for the time being.

Its licence has been placed under review pending an 'investigation into an alleged sexual attack' It is a grim association for a place that was once synonymous with celebrity and glamour.

I was a member from the early days in the mid 1980s .

The only one I would have any time for would be the Colony Room, also in Soho , but that too has gone the way of all fleshpots.

Francis Bacon may have been a Colony fixture but the York Minster AKA the French House was also good enough for him and anyone could walk in there.

The food gifts that had most economic and symbolic values were meat.

Meat gifts made a subtle statement about the status of the giver and flattered the recipient, who, it is implied, is in their social circle.

Camouflage fails with a sudden change in background, so soldiers pull on white cagoules.

Scottish mountain hares moult into white coats in autumn , making them far less visible to predators in snow.

High in the Scottish Cairngorms, ptarmigans turn entirely white except for a neat black beak and a red patch of skin above dark eyes.

The changing climate is breaking a contract between figure and ground, between animal and safety.

The floods reminded me that we make the mistake of thinking we are separate from the ground we move upon.

Like the white hares on a muddy hillside, we’re newly defenceless in this world of increasing climate emergency.

Most of the time it’s not because the genius auteur needs that long to fulfil some vision.

It often actively hurts the film and my bum on uncomfortable cinema seats.

However, I’ve heard enough judgmental queer men and musical girlies say that Wicked is good, and worth seeing on the big screen, that I’ll probably go and see it. It’s very hot outside and I could use a frozen coke..
