What are you listening to right now?

Peer Gynt ,Suites 1+2, From Edvard Grieg
Karelia Suite from Jean Sibelius
Lovely way to start a day really. Oohh my Bally head, what was in that curry?

My sister gave herself a playstation 2 for Christmas and gave her daughter the karaoke game thingie to go with it...so I've been listening to my tone deaf relatives trying to sing since last night. The best is when they try to sing English songs with their thick German accents...

MrNorth, best undiscovered band on the planet. And Sufjan Stevens Illinoise. And the new Snow Patrol, Open Your Eyes is beautiful.

James Brown - Papa's Got a Brand New Bag
...and now Depeche Mode's It's Called a Heart.

Sting-Shape of my heart

The Randi Rhodes show on Air America Radio. They're discussing schools in Kansas teaching creationism. Funny.

Etta James - At Last

Ace of Spades - Motorhead

Nirvana Unplugged

A few minutes ago, Icicle Works - Birds Fly (Whisper to a Scream); then Love and Rockets - Ball of Confusion; and finished off with Bauhaus - She's in Parties; before making supper

Must be an 80s day then for Echo and the Bunnymen are playing on Itunes for me.

It's always an 80s day on Radio Dunkle Welle I'm listening to La Floa Maldita's 'Sorciere' atm.

Ahhh... Echo and the Bunnymen. Sweet nectar to my ears
Echo and the Bunnymen: Lips Like Sugar. Liverpool brilliance

Nightmares on Wax - Mind Eye

I'm hearing those awful words "Ruf...mich...an...sofort!" from my TV over and over again. Gotta turn it off. Stupid dominatrix.

Fell in love with this chick on NYE...

The Fratellis.

Malcom X soundtrack

a thing about Mhung (not sure how it's spelled) immigrating to Wisconsin and what has happened since.

When Doves Cry - Prince

now something on Circuses in Wisconsin. Basically they're at circus world museum. yawn... unless you like the Circus.

They Might Be Giants: Everything Right is Wrong Again

Not Enough - Van Halen

Ben Folds..

Starman by David Bowie great stuff!

Dozi, Kom n bietjie binne

- Tiger en Louise
Sy's die ''Gin Queen'' van die strand
met haar hare weggebrand
sy's n nommer

Haar bodybuilder ou is gebou
om te hou
n koel komkommer

Sy cherry dink hy's grand
want in sy Rock 'n Roll band
is hy die drommer

**Tiger en Louise
**Brannas om te please
**en gin om te tease
**as jy funky will wees sal jy huisgenoot lees!!

Haar poedel hondjie kef
as hy sy panelvan op-rev
dit maak hom gek

Sy summer blonde kop
in netjies getop,
hare lank in die nek

Hy's n qualified mechanic
sy motto is don't panic
hy was op tek

Die tattoo op sy skouer
loop van bo tot onder nouer
dit lees Louise

Sy's die ma van sy laaitie
al is hy nie so bright nie
sy's sy squeez
O en as Tiger haar soen
sal sy enige iets doen
om hom te please

NME presents The Essential Bands CD2 and the first track is Chasing cars by Snow Patrol which is without doubt my favourite track of 2006 and incidentally Virgin radios nr. 1 from their top 500, so not only am I right, which you already knew, but the entire population of the UK agree with me, at least those with taste!

Booka Shade.

The Cardigans - Erase/Rewind

Oh, killer song, acockreland2balls.
Now I just got to see the video for that song to really make my evening...

Scogs re-doing his CV.

Steve McQueen - Sheryl Crowe

It must be art, it has a woman in leathers, cars with starter buttons and motorcycles.

Oh yeah, I like the song too.

Howard Stern . A recorded session from last November, playing on Radio Salangen Norway right now. Stern is a hoot!

U know y

Arshoo, this is your mate Steve Vai.

Crossroads



Ry Cooder is playing the kids part.

Edit: Seems I've been not quite correct all this time. According to IMDB...

Mr. Satriani



Am enjoying this.

Sweet.

Gary Moore plays Hendrix



I've gone to my happy place! Stick a fork in my ass, I'm done.

This film is the sole reason I started playing the guitar and bought a butterscotch blonde telecaster which i have to this day!

oh yeah, i hate 'shredding' though - it's a shame when vai, may, satriani, etc... ruin awesome tunes by pleasuring their fretboards for ten minutes non-stop!

Offspring - Dirty Magic Acoustic

Awesome tune!

Another old favorite: The Beat - Mirror in the Bathroom

The original


A pleasant re-make

And a very sexy skinhead o'connor! I may add.

Dublin's 98FM.

Scratch that, got Today FM on instead. Funnier chatter.

Currently listening to a version of Destiny's Child - "Independent Woman" to a 10CC - Dreadlock Holiday remix. Very odd but it kinda works.

Try not to remember by Sheryl Crowe.. Nice

Silence...or at least close to it. There is the ever persistent computer fan in the background.

Jenny was a friend of mind One of my favorite songs to work to currently.

Christian Kreuz, fantabulosa funky elektro from a local boy.

Now the Blow Monkeys, nice bit of 80s anti-capitalist tuneage!

Birds chirping outside my window, while the morning light appears out here in the countryside.
