Can I Have a "P" please...Vic
"Everyone loves songs about Outer Space, and of course you rose to the challenge admirably with hundreds of texts, emails, calls, blog & facebook hits. It was the busiest show of the week by far - what a reaction! Bowie had to feature in there somewhere, but I was surprised at the range of interplanetary sounds we managed to spin through the show. Your musical knowledge and taste, astounds and amazes me as always.
Next week we continue the alphabet up to P for Monday. By the way, I hope you're enjoying the photos on this blog... hours of thought and concentration go into these! Anyway, Capt Ramius went for Plants, Scotch Git suggested the all encompassing Pacific, Gaie Brown had a go with Punks, Teds, Hippies, Goths etc (I'd have gone for this one...) to represent youth culture movements, while Jim frae Erskine tried his luck with Palindromes, Procrastination, Professions and Puberty. Some ace ideas in amongst those. However, when it came to the crunch and the clock's final countdown, producer Mandi and I decided on... Previous Bands. So there you have it! It could be Jackson 5 (Michael Jackson), Genesis (Phil Collins), Generation X (Billy Idol), Euythmics (Annie Lennox) or The Supremes (Diana Ross) and so on... Get those songs from 'Previous' bands in to us asap, but in the meantime enjoy 'Freedom Friday'!

It's much more cosmopolitan sounding and I picture you in a different light, which is possible as I've never met you.
It's also funny, wheras 'Scotch -Git' sounded parochial and kind of typically Scottish - which I feel certain you're not.
