We’re off to watch the Scottish Cup semi-final now, so to keep you all entertained for the next couple of hours here’s a little something we put together at the request of columnist and broadcaster Lesley Riddoch, and for anyone who was listening to Radio Scotland’s “Headlines” this morning.
Hopefully we won’t need it ourselves by 3.30pm. #COYR
JOHNNY CASH’S VERSION OF HURT?!?!?
WHAT ABOUT THE SUPERIOR NINE INCH NAILS ORIGINAL VERSION?!?!?!
What? no Dick Gaughan 🙁
“and for anyone who was listening to Radio Scotland’s “Headlines” this morning.” I missed it but wild guess here with jaw dropping corrupt BBC in Scotland going “We all hate Alex Salmond don’t we, so vote NO.”
On the weekend of the last SNP conference before the referendum the electronic version of the Scotsman is leading with Nigel Farage making some comment “somewhere in England”
This is beyond bizarre.
“Lawyers,Guns and Money” Warren Zevon
COYS!
(That’s all the way from Rio de Janeiro)
BTW, I was talking to a couple of Brazilians in one of the bars on Monday and they were asking about the Referendum and were very clued up about it! They couldn’t believe that No was an option and that we hadn’t become Independent years ago.
Ach well, not long now…
Oor Jessie 😀

Ah Billie, one of my favourites, her and Dinah Washington.
“WHAT ABOUT THE SUPERIOR NINE INCH NAILS ORIGINAL VERSION?!?!?!”
The Cash version is more depressing.
Can I post on this thread? Because posts on a previous thread are all vanishing.
Weird. Sorry to disrupt. Embarrassingly, I just realised what I did wrong. *red face*
How about adding The Beatles’ She’s Leaving Home to your playlist?
Would someone please joins the dots for me here.

Bad liver and a broken heart, Tom Waits 😀

“I’m Only Happy when It Rains” by Garbage.
The Rolling Stones’ “Paint It Black”.
“Run For Your Life” by the Beatles.
“Heaven Knows I’m Miserable Now”, of course.
“Shiny Happy People” by R.E.M. No, wait, That’s one of OURS!
caz-m,
Would someone please joins the dots for me here.
I would answer your question but I’m too busy admiring the groovy patterns in my wallpaper. Also, I could murder a pizza just now…
How about bob Dylan’s “I don’t believe you” , “union sundown” or “maybe someday”
PS, we need Lesley riddoch back on radio Scotland she knows how to question politicians and doesn’t take any of their nonesense
Headlines BBC Scotland. from 6mins 20secs in.
Katie Grant is that woman. Sergio Casci mainly for YES.

“End Of The World” Judge Dredd

Stevie May, ya dancer!
What about The Black Freighter by Nina Simone? ( A bit tougher in sentiment than some of the stuff here since it’s by Kurt Weill and Bertolt Brecht.)
Or Kind of Blue by Miles Davis, any track?
Lets hope the battle we are in doesn’t go like that… Dons were by far the better team, but for some reason, couldn’t put the game away… lets learn from that… we have to put the game away in September. I dont want a nail-biter… I want a clear unabiguous victory.
Jings Rev, putting “Gloomy Monday” on there is reckless and dangerous!

“Stevie May, ya dancer!”
LIFETIME BAN.
LIFETIME BAN
That’s the spirit 🙂
YES. Close to the Edge. Armadillo, 2nd. May. Let’s buy all the T-Shirts s. Progressive or what?
Dons were by far the better team
Willie Miller thought otherwise.
O/T Rev, I do apologise.
This seems promising,sorry if its already been posted.

O/T Sunday politics
Red Road flats demolition will not feature as part of the Games opening, (safety grounds – nothing to do with people power & 17,000 petition; Aye sure GCC)
Sunday Bloody Sunday, going from Scotland on Sunday’s totally unintentional ‘WAR’ front cover.
O/T Red Road flats not now being demolished as part of CG opening ceremony link to bbc.co.uk
Chief exec Gravenberg said:
“Glasgow 2014, Games partners and key stakeholders, including Police Scotland and Glasgow Housing Association, are not prepared to allow what was proposed to be a positive act of commemoration to create risk for all concerned, including the communities of north east Glasgow.”
Commemoration? Really?
typing too fast again *Grevemberg*
For Blair McDougall and his team, ‘Monster’ by The Automatic (“What’s that coming over the hill? Is it a monster? Is it a monster?” – to which the answer is invariably ‘No’).
Or, keeping with the theme but having less to do with fears of Independence, more descriptive of some high-profile people involved in Better Together: “Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps)” by a Mr D. Bowie.
As you can see, I’ve really taken Alistair Darling’s ‘monstering’ idea very seriously. 🙂
For Blinky himself, though, one song appears perfect: “They’re Coming To Take Me Away Ha Ha” by Napoleon XIV.
Oi, what are you trying to do to me. Here I am quitely managing long-term depression and you follow Billie Holiday with the Mary Chain. Oh lordie lord. 🙂
Cab Calloway Band – We The Cats Will Hep Ya

Oops. Sorry, Rev.
How about a loop laid over these tracks of Screaming Lord George, reading Matthew 8:12
“But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness, and there shall be weeping, and gnashing of teeth.” N’ nat no?
Remind me someone, whatever happened to the tug stationed in Stornoway?

I seem to remember some London based bureaucrat doing a bit of cost cutting.

When I think of the conversation we had in the street during the fire-alarm episode, I think of this song:

I was extremely fortunate to see Muddy Waters, the year of the Brixton riots (1981). He followed Chuck Berry, who came back on-stage later, to jam. My favourite kind. 🙂
CameronB
I was given the anthology disc set for Christmas. Not my usual fare, but extremely listenable and his evident love of the music along with his easy style is very relaxing.
The Man in the Jar
That was one of my first albums. Listened to it again via Spotify a month or two back and it’s painfully dated in terms of production quality. Still, brought back a lot of memories of mid teens. 😛
Queen – I’m Going Slightly Mad
Liza Minnelli – Losing my Mind
Sundays – Here’s Where the Story Ends – ‘that little souvenir of a terrible year’
Annie Lennox – No More I Love Yous
And one for Labour for Indy and St Johnstone fans..

LIFETIME BAN APPEAL LODGED

Seasick Dave… Willie Miller (legend that he is), will undoubtedly be infected with Beebeeceeitis, which afflicts all to who conrtact the disease to habitual lying. 😉
testing….testing……1…2….3, can you hear me at the back? 😀
O/T – regarding Red Road demolition: interesting theory developing. The stunt may have been a financial scam to offload the demolition costs to the Games budget, rather than GHA’s.
With this being possibly our only chance of escaping Westminster rule in our lifetimes, how about that song that goes, “Well if you gotta go, go now, or else you got to stay all night”? Seems like an eery warning.
Days later….just remembered this:
Traffic: Sometimes I feel so uninspired
