Loved the Charlie Brown / Pink Floyd mashup!
Before I heard it I was wondering “oh my god, the characters sung this??!?” which led to thoughts of the Langley Project! And then I thought “actually that’d fit with Floyd in terms of Another Brick in the Wall!

I’m sure someone’s done it – but I must…[Read more]

@phaseshift, Sorry to hear about the health problems. Hope you will soon be fully recovered. Good to have you back on the forum.

@rob Hi. Good to have you back.

@peacefrog Welcome.…[Read more]

Then i’ll kick it and cry “see – it’s still alive!”

;¬)

But you’ve got me on that Kraftwerk track – I can’t make it fit with the series or episodes (I should think harder I know!). I’m sure it will be a face-palm moment!

But yes, I guess I’m hoping at least one…[Read more]

Weirdly I don’t think I’ve ever seen the video for Hit.
Which makes me think just how did I ever hear those Sugarcubes songs??!?

I guess I must’ve bought them or had someone make a mixtape for me.
Its…[Read more]

@Whisht    Whenever I hear the “one tonne” joke, I think of this old SNL bit. For some reason, it has stayed with me when better (probably) bits have vanished in the mists of time. Guantanamera!

@peacefrog – thanks for the Deep Pu…[Read more]

The Wall of Voodoo video stirred an atavistic memory, and I’ve only just realised what it was.

And I apologise in advance

@Arbutus – awww Ella – smoky precision. And yes, I’m overly happy with that description. What tone.
@Craig – Maps is a great song; LOVED Mura Masa (reminded me of Sleaford Mods!).
@Phaseshift – that is an amazing mashup! I loved the Slayer one t…[Read more]

In one, it’s that whilst people love a swagger & enjoy the “going nuts,” part, they don’t like a swagger to stay one. It has to have more than “nuts” & swagger. A good album, but not a great album?

Old Syzygy.

Watching the Orange Aberration droning about his devotion to the environment at Davos whilst knowing how his administration (if it can be dignified with that term) has gutted the departments and legislative measures set in place to protect the health of the environment in the USA, that Tom Lehrer song was what came immediately to mind 🙁

I love The Band, have posted them on here before. In amongst all the perfect bits, I’m a big fan of Garth Hudson’s organ playing.

Also, nice little Talking Orange Heads mashup.  🙂

Thanks for that; it certainly succeeded in raising a smile, although it also has the disconcerting effect of assembling the word salad into something which seems to make sense.  Normally just the sound of *that* voice brings me out in a rash, and any attempt to parse what he says gives me a headache!

As an aside, I like the moniker.…[Read more]

I’ve managed to wrest the Forum from The Younger who’s in argument mode. Awesome, I second @arbutus, the  Kraftwerk connection is solid & you’ve sold me. Brilliant.

I loved this episode too. It has a ….different focus than previous episodes. To me, at least.

Also @arbutus thank you for the lovely Lau. It’s inspirational & the be…[Read more]

Did someone mention Thin White Duke? This is mum’s favourite -amongst (or ‘among’ we need a @pedant when we NEED one!) or one of her favourites!

But I’m not sure which is best…..

Syxygy the young one

;¬)

Here’s one (similar era) for the Fourth Doctor’s Birthday.

Happy birthday Tom

Apologies I haven’t been around to listen or ping-pong back, but its obvious we have a lot of overlapping tastes (though I’ll admit to never yet getting into the Grateful Dead, so will listen to those songs to get inspired!!).

Will try and listen soon and try and ‘reply’ with songs.

:¬)

Meanwhile on this side of the Pond, with Brexit looming and our very own irresponsible mophead and his crew in charge, this comes to mind.

Not that I dislike my home city (where, for what it’s worth, a clear majority voted to remain in the EU), but if I were younger and had the opportunity ….

Either way, as the slogan for a certain UK cell phone network proclaimed a few years ago, ‘The future’s bright, the future’s Orange’ , but I’m thinking heavily smoked glass rather than shades 🙂

Not sure what happened there, but the video didn’t embed. Try again

Let us hope that the Mango Mussolini may at least be distracted from pressing the Button (no, not the one to summon his Diet Cokes) or

I would never dare walk out in public with hair like the Trumpster. I mean, would anybody, even Trump? 🙂

I haven’t had hair since I was 30, which is almost 20 years ago.

On Halloween I choose hair appropriate costumes. Hence Ming The Merciless. I also do a great Clint Eastwood (cos I can grow a beard in a day), but I need a cowboy…[Read more]

Cool. Thanks for the clarification. Yeah, online conversations can get confusing, or misinterpreted, if we don’t make ourselves clear.

Eh? I’m kinda the chief. Do you mean me? If so, I have no idea what you’re talking about.

I’ll leave something completely different, as I make ready to go out into the snow, with requisite grumbles about living in Vancouver where we’re not supposed to get this stuff. And yet, there’s about a foot of it outside m…[Read more]

I feel you are in attack mode?

I think a mod can be above that & attempt to be decent. It wasn’t decent, imo.

@peacefrog is a newbie. Maybe you’re judging him/them/her on one post when all his other posts have been genuine & interesting.

Once again I reiterate that this is a Good Place. The snark can leave now. It’s…[Read more]

‘We all have problems in life, get over yourself.’ I’d say the shots fired balance still lies with you, I’m afraid. And it’s hard to convincingly argue that all you ask for is a mutual level of respect when the first person who was disrespectful was you.

Additionally, you…[Read more]

I think most forum users here are experienced enough to see:

1. You started this chain of events
2. You’ve tried to propogate the argument to stupid lengths
3. Your grandstanding is embarrassing, even towards the lurkers who just want a bit of argy-bargy

If you want to have a laugh and and a joke, talk Who and post a couple of choona…[Read more]

..And yet you initiated this exchange and continue to do so. How very pedantic sorry pedestrian of you? All I want is for you to enjoy your time by conversing with like minded people. I’m guessing that’s not what you want is it?

You….almost died…?!

Break out the tambourines MrsP and let us praise the Lord!!

(You started this newbie – as you say, get over yourself, deal with whatever inner demons you have 😉 )

To pick up on the everyday finger fumble by the arthritic trying to use a touchpad! Lawks alordy! Trances = Frances.

God bless you! Your parents must be so proud!! I’ll show MrsP your post tomorrow. She. Will. Be . ASTOUNDED!!!

If you like Karen O and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, this is worth a quick watch – how “Maps” changed pop music.

You are a wonderful frog. Genuine, clever & some music I haven’t thought of in ages. Welcome to you. Unless I already did that! in which case, welcome again 😀

Love a bit of the AlanPP me.

Its a great, stirring song. A real puff-your-chest-out-in-pride rabble rowser.

I am actually quite glad Martin Luther King awakened so many. But if all of the world is a political speech to you, then the concept of entertainment has been lost.

As for the inhumanity of slavery, I have always asked people what would you have been like if you were born during the decades of slavery in the US? Would you have really…[Read more]

Always great to hear good choons – its a great Violent Femmes song and I do love the mixes on that Beastie Boys track and there’s even a Daniel Johnston cover!

@Arbutus – wow – Not heard Lau before and that’s really piqued my interest!
I really enjoyed how its folkiness is welded to…[Read more]

@thane16   Not sure if Midnight was a tranquility base, but it was certainly the same kind of place. Definitely a recall there, and that was one of my favourite Tennant episodes!

his episode just lost me and my wife as fans. Soooooo tired of political correctness being preached to me.…
