Have a Nice Day - Bon Jovi

Previously on the blog...

Adam,

Who the [Expletive removed by the moderators.] is Mrs. McCluskey?!?

That's two shows in a row that I really really enjoyed - keep it eclectic!

My Wandering Days Are Over - Belle & Sebastian

Eleven Days - David Byrne, Fatboy Slim & Cyndi Lauper from the opera, 'Here Lies Love'

Dare - Gorillaz - from Demon Days

Step On - The Happy Mondays

On Days Like These - Matt Munro - theme from the Italian Job, simply beautiful.

Nice to hear some blues on the show tonight: how about

Six Days On The Road - Taj Mahal

Sometimes when I go to a gig (and this is particularly true of big mega concerts) there comes a moment when the artist clears the stage and sings to you with no more than an accoustic guiar. I love that - both Paul Simon and Paul McCartney do that and it's my favourite part of the gig.

One Of these Days - Paul McCartney Paul and a guitar - lovely.Henri's anthem - make a change from Yesterday.

It's out of season, but hey Waiting for Christmas Day - Paul Simon who is a great guitarist.

And a couple of others:

Sunday Morning - Maroon 5

Saturday Night, Sunday Morning - the River Detectives

Brand New Day - 10CC

On Saturday Afternoons, 1963 - Rickie Lee Jones

Bang The Drum All Day Todd Rundgren wierd record, like nothing else he's done.

This Could Be The Day - James Grant much requested, never played.

I Loved You Yesterday - Lyle Lovett

The Days Of pearly Spencer - Marc Almond

When The Day is Short - Martha Wainwright

Anyway, there's zillions of these, that'll do.

Re: Paul Simon

Your favourite West-end venue is organising a coach to the Paul Simon gig and a wee dram for as near as damn it one hundred of your Earth pounds. But you probably received the email already...

#33/18

huge 2nd for this - one day there will be a mass rediscovery of the Moody Blues late sixties albums.

Some of it is a bit pretentious sounding now and a bit overblown and self important but they knew how to work a mellotron.

As a yoof, I bought 'On The Threshhold Of A Dream'. It was number one in the album charts for months.

Never Comes The Day is probably he best track on it and it would be a treat to hear it on GIO, but I doubt we will - mind you, based on the last couple of nights - which have been superb - remixes of Dusty by St Etienne.... what next?..... The Moody Blues old hippie albums?

Good to hear St Etienne on GIO,very under rated.

regardez youse

henri

Twilight cover by the once mighty...

All Day And All Of Night ~ T. Stranglers









However, I'd still prefer Techno D-Day on the new eclectic GIO but remember people you don't leap a chasm in two bounds.

One Day I'll Weigh A Fly - Randy Crawford

Some day there will be a rediscovery of Moody Blues late 60s albums. Yes, if building on landfill ever becomes economic.

Their aspirations were monumental (Sting and Bono seem like shrinking violets in comparison), their execution mediocre and their lyrics just banal - viz.

"In the garden of her love I'll stay awhile
To be, to be
What the seeds of her thoughts once mean to me
Come see, come see"

Three Blind Mice is a better read.

For me it all went wrong when Denny Laine left.

These Days - Bon Jovi (Their best song , IMHO)

Saviour's Day - Cliff Richard (Cliff isnt just for Christmas you know!)

Saviour Breath - J. Tull

Everyday - The Moody Blues - Denny Laine's on this 1965 single

#40.... Taxi for Adam_from_Rio!!!

#40

I went to see Cliff and The Shadows (inventors of line dancing) last year. It's the only concert I've been to where no one went to the toilet at the interval.

Bryan Ferry - This is tomorrow

Everday I write the book - Elvis Costello

24 Hours from Tulsa - Gene Pitney

#33 sorry I couldn't respond, I've been working all day.....

#40 was that because the members of the audience all had a bag strapped to their waist?

wooops...!!!

That should have referred to #44...

#47, #48


'Papa's Got a Brand New Bag' - Sir Cliff


(Shamelessly stolen from Barry Cryer).

>8-D

Are you taking the p*** sir?

Wood Eye?

"The theme is tracks that were off limits to you."


I do not know what this means.

































particularly dense git

#47-50

It's only now I see the significance of the Shadows' three to the side and a kick

#52

It's obviously a misprint for

The theme is tricks, that’s it we’re off, nuts to you

Ask, and it shall be given unto you.



{:-{)}
