All That Glitters Is Not Gold
"All that glitters is not gold" is an aphorism stating that not everything that looks precious or true turns out to be so. While early expressions of the idea are known from at least the 12th–13th century, the current saying is derived from a 16th-century line by William Shakespeare, "All that glisters is not gold". Origins The expression, in various forms, originated in or before the 12th century and may date back to Æsop. The Latin is ''Non omne quod nitet aurum est.'' The French monk Alain de Lille wrote "Do not hold everything gold that shines like gold" in 1175. Chaucer gave two early versions in English: "''But al thyng which that shyneth as the gold / Nis nat gold, as that I have herd it told''" in "The Canon's Yeoman's Tale", and "''Hyt is not al golde that glareth''" in "The House of Fame". The popular form of the expression is a derivative of a line in William Shakespeare's play ''The Merchant of Venice'', which employs the word "glisters," a 16th-century synonym f ...

All That Glitters Is A Mares Nest
''All That Glitters Is a Mares Nest'' (also known simply as ''Maresnest'') is a live album and concert film by the English rock band Cardiacs. It is their third live album, and was originally recorded in the afternoon in the Salisbury Arts Centre on 30 June 1990 with Napalm Death. It is the only Cardiacs album to feature guitarist Christian Hayes throughout. The album was released on VHS in 1992 and as a live album on 1 June 1995. Napalm Death were recording their video ''Live Corruption'' (1992) at the same venue that evening, and seeing as both Cardiacs and Napalm Death shared the same manager, it was decided they could record two live videos in the same place for the price of one-and-a-half. The CD features two extra tracks ("Two Bites of Cherry" and "All Spectacular") that didn't appear on the video. ''All That Glitters Is a Mares Nest'' is the only Cardiacs album to feature the band as a septet. The lineup of Cardiacs which played this concert did not entirely reflect ...

Sugar Tax (album)
''Sugar Tax'' is the eighth studio album by English electronic band Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD), released on 7 May 1991 by Virgin Records. It was the group's first studio album since 1986's '' The Pacific Age'', and the first of three recorded without co-founder Paul Humphreys, who had departed in 1989. Featuring singer Andy McCluskey alongside a new backing band, ''Sugar Tax'' leans towards the then-prevalent dance-pop genre, with McCluskey's songwriting at times being influenced by the breakdown of his relationship with Humphreys. ''Sugar Tax'' met with mixed reviews but became one of OMD's biggest commercial successes, selling three million copies by 2007. The record peaked at number three on the UK Albums Chart and spawned four singles, including the UK top-10 hits " Sailing on the Seven Seas" and "Pandora's Box". ''Sugar Tax'' is the only OMD album on which Paul Humphreys does not receive a songwriting credit. Background In the aftermath of the band's 1989 spli ...
