That's me in the red.

And Maria...Almost Lover made me cry. Story of my life that song.

Ellie

It really is a beautiful but sad song. I've been there too.

I'm glad you liked it Ellie. I like this artist too...

You lawless, knife wielding fiend in a dress Jamsie! I bet you're one of these gangbangers I've seen in shows like Cops, America's Most Wanted and Bewitched!

You should take a leaf out of sweet Dona Maria's book and put down the zip gun and the motorbike chain and start soothing our savage breasts with some luvlee musica!

Why I outta!

Well said Bonzo..

This place is turning into a mute version of Desert Island Discs meets Facebook..

Craparse links to music!!!!

Jeez.. any half normal person tuning in from nowhere, will run a mile - or slit their own throat..

Uck a Gut land..

LOVE AS EVER

Old Ma Slather..

SELF DECLARATION: I wish to refer my use of the Serbo-Croat phrase Uck a Gut to the Forum Moderation Department. Whilst I'm aware that it breaks new guidelines, I wish it publicly known that it is was exclusively targeted at the Coal Hole Gang. Particularly Maggot, who doesn't count as a person and stupidly loves me far too much to kick off an unwanted Flame War.

Shut up you ponce.

What a beautiful afternoon x

Dinah Washington - What a Difference a Day Makes

More fine choonage there from the fragrant Iberian enigma that is Dona Maria who drifts in to this oft ill smelling den of diabolical derision and Dear Spoovery like a scented zephyr from the snow-capped sierras that divide the perfumed silk shirt of France from the fiery bones of hair-shirted Spain.

I dont suppose you could see your way clear to lending us a pony till next Friday could you Fruitgum only I'm down to me last pack of Capstan Full Strength 'ere girl

In the meantime my little cloth-eared compadres I give you this rather fine offering from the mighty Rev. Al Green.

Old "Meltdown Mac" sang this to the guvnor when he got pulled up a bit lively for being a **** and he STILL got fucked off down the road!!!

Terrible really

Still.....

Have You Tried "Stay With Me Baby" Champ?

I'm afraid due to the dreadful economic climate and a harsh winter we had to eat the pony sir, but papa says you're more than welcome to a a couple of his finest chickens and the hand of my elder sister, Marcia. She's a true prize lord....she can do the work of three ponies and only has the appetite of two. It will be a good match I think.



The cheque's in the post.

Time for a bit of Billie Holiday

I prefer this version to the original.

Toni Braxton - You're Making Me High

Talking of the wonderful Billie Holiday...

Haunting.

The Be Good Tanyas - Scattered Leaves

I think it might help a little bit if we explained why these songs mean something to us.

I liked this one because I worked the night shift, I loved Marvin Gaye and Jackie Wilson, and the Commodores. Plus I was going through a pretty messy divorce when this came out.

Ideal crying in your beer material.

More fun and frolics from Radio Knackered after this:

Night Shift

Skoob

You're right, Skoob.

The Be Good Tanyas were a group a friend introduced to me before trying to commit suicide. Reading back through all her messages it was obvious what her intentions were, but for some reason I didn't see it until it was almost too late. Thankfully she survived, but we've now lost touch.

The song just came on the media player again and made me think of her.

If you need to talk about that, PM me, or anyone you feel you may be able to confide in. You will receive a sympathetic response.

Sincerely

Skoob.

That's really kind of you, Skoob.

This one is for all of us.

Warren Zevon - Werewolves Of London

In adherance to the latest thread directive I'm going to explain why I chose this uplifting little choon my good friends.

You see I had it playing on my iPod when I was going through a rather messy suicide which involved me leaping from a skyscraper into an industrial meat mincing machine. Fortunately it was what my friends and family would have wanted.

Oh and it also contains the greatest line of all times:

"You better stay away from him, he'll rip your lungs out Jim!"

His hair was perfect!

I used to be a werewolf you know.

But I'm alright NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW!

Thought I'd better put a balanced view after "Strange Fruit".

Not everything from the Deep South is baaaaaad.

And, on a personal note, this helped me no end during a messy time in my life... (was that enough Skoob?)

* pours out th'missy-sippin' whisky, sits out on porch and oils gun *

Feel like dancing

This song reminds me of my first time on the waltzer's.

Michael Jackson - Don't Stop Till Ya Get Enough


Loved this film, especially the bit in the dole office when this song comes on the radio.

Hot Stuff

Clive - Bewitched? Really?

What version of Bewitched did you guys have in Britian?

But, no....I'm more like this:

Cop Rock

(Greatest moments in American TV history can be found in the hit show: Cop Rock.)

Because, why wouldn't you want to watch a show that has cops who can sing and dance? Plus, all the other things that go with cop shows: killing, arresting, blood, murder, Miranda Rights, kissing, and romance.)

In my defense, I saw 2 episodes of Cop Rock while in college because I didn't want to study for astronomy lab.

Ellie

Antony & The Johnsons - Daylight & the Sun

This song, written and performed by my best friend:

Check out Postcards

Maybe it's because I know him, and I know what it's about and what he was feeling when he wrote it, but it made me cry when I heard it.

Enjoy...

It's really lovely, Ellie.

Double Life of Veronique

What Dona Maria said Ellie. Lovely job. Mind you it's nothing compared to what I'd come up with if I could play the guitar, compose music and sing and all that old game. I mean it's ridiculous to even think that. RIDICULOUS!!!!!!!!

Why I outta!!

Now then this next one is called The Tracks Of My Tears by some geezer called Smokey Robinson, so called because he was on 50 Capstan Full Strength a day when he worked as a sparks down the East India Dock in the 60's.

I've chosen this one as it reminds me of the time back in the 70's when I'd somehow managed to secure the undying devotion of a rather useful little blue-eyed blond peach only for her father to ban her from seeing me anymore because in his opinion I was "A two bob little gangster who'll break your heart and spend half his life in the nick"

She's probably married some to pen pushing arseole with bony fingers and a collection of Austin A40s rusting in the back garden now. How her old man must have come to rue his hasty words and ill judged character assaination.

Oh yes!
