day fifteen

half way there...

"a song that describes you"

well i'm not a dustman or vincent van gogh or an iceream man or hell any of those things i can think of there being songs about for starters. if there was one about good fer nothing bleeding heart do gooders who never really get around to anything eat a lot of fruit drink a bit more than they ought to wander off of the point and like ducks then we'd be away but...

someone i didn't know very well once said this was just my sort of record and it is it is it just is so this'll have to do

we've had it before and we'll have it again (at 99p soul on saturday for starters)

"a song that no one would expect you to love"

oh to be less obvious. deeper. mysterious even. never going to happen is it.

day thirteen

"a song that's a guilty pleasure"

never no no no there ain't no such thing. a pleasure's a pleasure and let's celebrate. in the spirit of the thing mind you i have been known to giggle behind my guardian at a train load of northern manilow supporters taking in all three nights and kept zipped about my keenness for a whole bunch of barry. i feel the change coming i feel the wind blow i feel brave and daring i feel my blood flow... oh i do i do...

day eleven

gee they love a favourite this lot they surely do

"a song from your favourite band"

they're funny things groups aren't they. they're groups not bands round here. i mean proper ones ones where they're actually groups. not a singer and some blokes but that thing when a bunch of people make a noise that's all of them like when topper left and it wasn't the clash any more and that drummer you know the jazzy one off of those hurrah records and him in the june brides that wasn't brian that kinda spoilt it all. like the go-betweens aren't the go-betweens without lindy morrison. those late lps aren't go-betweens records they're robert and grant records. they're still astounding just not go-betweens records. and that wasn't a specials reunion without jerry dammers. that was some of the specials. it's not the same thing it's just not. and do the impressions count? or little anthony and the imperials? they don't do they. or brasil '66? what about the heptones? i wish it could be little anthony and the imperials. i love little anthony and the imperials.

but ah sod it i'm feeling decidedly bossa right here right now so bossa is it. i know bugger all 'bout them but the only lp i've got is beautiful so today it's this lovely lot
