Anyway, listen to the Salmon dance and you will have the song stuck in your head for days…..

I’m On Fire

Tuesday, October 2nd, 2007

Well, not literally or indeed any other way.
If you’ve a spare 1/4 of an hour, here’s a great song, and a cool video from Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - due to YouTube it has to be in 2 parts:

Leap Your Bar

Monday, September 24th, 2007

It’s been a while since I posted any music, so here’s what’s on my current playlist.
This song is Leap Your Bar from the album Curtains by John Frusicante. Yes, I’ve chosen his music a lot, but he really can do everything from funk to metal, loud rocky guitars, synths and then this: a piano, his [...]

The X-Factor: Scraping The Barrel

Monday, September 10th, 2007

I’ll be glad when this series reaches the ‘boot camp’ stage so I don’t have to watch anymore. But until then, the auditions continue to mine a rich seam of the mentally ill and self-delusional.

X-Factor - It’s About Time - Or Not

Monday, September 3rd, 2007

This week on the delusional merry-go round, we have the Birmingham super-group ‘It’s About Time’.

A Muppet Show

Sunday, June 10th, 2007

For those of you who love the Muppet Show, Nine Inch Nails, or Johnny Cash’s cover of ‘Hurt’, this will probably ruin them all for you, but it’s still very clever, and actually very well done.
Kermit the frog sings Hurt.

Musical Memories

Thursday, May 17th, 2007

Tagged by the Villainous Curmudgeon to reveal the Top 10 songs in the year I turned 18 and have a little post about them, I looked at the site that forms part of ‘ze rules’, and it is unsurprisingly USA-centric and the charts were almost unrecognizable to me.
So I went to this site to check [...]

The Sides

Tuesday, May 15th, 2007

If you’ve a spare five minutes and fancy listening to some new music, click on the audio player to hear my personal favourite song, pretty much ever.

As it says, it is ‘The Sides’ by Ataxia, and even thinking about the song raises goose bumps on my arms.  I can’t put my finger on it completely, [...]
