Soft Cell~Kitchen Sink Drama

Don't ask my why this song came floating into my head today but it did:

I loved Marc Almond as a teenager. I could be quite a shy awkward person at times and felt that Marc's songs reflected a real understanding of what it was like growing up.
Music is such a release for people. Musicians make such a valuable contribution to our lives.

The words in this song are great.

Doghouse Primal Force and Dezza!

I had a great night out on Saturday at a tiny venue in Chelmsford surrounded by friends.
All the acts were good. Doghouse was absolutely great!

Here is his performance at Glastonbury.
The performance is very theatrical and I love the dancer.
He reminds me of someone I loved to see in my youth....
Gee Mr Tracy!

With this type of music you have to dance!!!!

Everything about Everything Everything!!!

Everything Everything:
The film~ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=42KNwQ6u42U

The book~is amazing....
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18692431-everything-everything   This book is by Nicola Yoon. I picked it up in the supermarket to read on the flight to USA. I read about half before boarding the plane. To my amazement Everything Everything was available as a new release film on my Delta flight so I watched the film AND watched the film. I recommend both!

The band~https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDSEtWt9u-A   ( I bloomin' love this song!)
This band is basically very cool and if you haven't heard them, check them out!

Green Day~Boulevard Of Broken Dreams

In 2005 I took my kids to Milton Keynes to see Green Day at The Bowl.
I really enjoyed the experience. We stayed in a posh hotel which was offering a bargain rate as we took the empty room at a wedding reception so when the taxi got us to the hotel after the gig the party was in full swing! The place was very impressive complete with peacocks walking in the grounds.

I was driving home after work tonight and Greg James played Green Day as part of the 10 Minute takeover.
This went down well with me and as soon as I got home I treated myself to hearing this wonderful song:

Imagine Dragons~Thunder

I have had this song in my head for days now. I have to admit I do like it.

The songs that are played on Radio One are played so often that they quickly become familiar. Sometimes I can start off liking a song and then tiring of it. That hasn't happened with this song. I still like it!

The Fierce and the Dead

I went to the Facemelter Thumpermonkey EP Launch at The Black Heart in London last night. I have seen them before and they were great. There were two more acts. One was The Fierce and the Dead.

They were heavy, they were theatrical and they were fun. When you closed your eyes you became immersed in a wall of sound. It was brilliant and just the way to blast away all the cares of the world.
Thanks to G and his pals for dragging me out!

Miley Cyrus~Younger Now

This is the sencond Miley song that I have really enjoyed. I was driving along a few days ago and I heard this song for the first time. I didn't hera who it was by and I googled what I thought the title was and had no luck. I hoped I would hear the song again and today I was in luck. They played another song before letting me know the song title. I think it is a beautiful song.
