"Danger! High Voltage" - Electric Six.
Another sunrise with my sad captains, with who I choose to lose my mind,
And if it's all we only pass this way but once, what a perfect waste of time.

Heard it on the car radio today on way home from work.

'Gloria' by The Snuts and believe they are a Scottish band from West Lothian.
Not sure I had actually heard of them before.

'Wouldn't it be good' by Nik Kershaw on radio when I was driving home from work.

I think I went to see him many years ago in Belfast just not sure what year it was.
I expect it might be written down in one of my Dad's old diaries.

'Glorious' by Andreas Johnson on way home from work and on way to work 'Summer' by Calvin Harris.
Also heard 'Running up that hill' but not Kate Bush version and didn't like it as much.

"Lilly the Pink" - The Scaffold.

Lonestar tribute version of ZZ Top 'Give me all your lovin'
Playing on car radio as was up early to do an airport run.

Also 'Road to Joy' by Peter Gabriel which I think just came out recently.

'Bittersweet Goodbye' by Issey Cross.

Think I would prefer to hear 'Bitter Sweet Symphony' but perhaps I need to try listening to more recent stuff.

"Since I Left You" by The Avalanches.

Yer actual Top 20 hit way back in 2001, I hadn't heard it in gawd knows how many years, then two nights in a row I hear it on the radio just as I'm heading to my bed.

After all the talk about cider on the other thread I was listening to 'I am a cider drinker' - the Alestorm version and not The Wurzels.

You haven't lived until you've heard The Wurzels cover version of "Golden Brown". ;)


Last song I listened to was "Sing, Sing, Sing" performed by Benny Goodman and his band.
I do like a bit of big band/swing every now and then.

Well you learn something new every day so thanks for that Spleen.
I'd never even heard of the Wurzels version of 'Golden Brown' and just after listening to it there. :o :)

A busker on Buchanan Street singing Aztec Camera's "Somewhere in my Heart".

One of my favourite songs. It reminds me of my teenage years. :)
