´óÏó´«Ã½

I'd love to hear "Kiss Off" by the Violent Femmes (played last, of course). As a bonus, it has lots of counting within the song itself.

THURSDAY


Laddie-Da - Jake Thackray

You know you want to play this:

'Toothpaste Kisses' - the Maccabees

so Airborne Toxic Event are on the bafflingly bewildering GIO list of Bands We Refuse to Play ........or are they? she said, throwing down the gauntlet to the hip and cool young Uncle Vic.

Strange Girl - Airborne Toxic Event

'Strange Girl' ~~ Airborne Toxic Event

... for Gaie ... for me ... for those yet to be appreciative GIO listeners ... for those in the GIO jury yet to be convinced (or so it seems) ... and ... for goodness sake!!!

The Daughter likes:

'Dead End' - Master Shortie...been mentioning this guy for well over a year...he's been collaborating with Ed Sheeran recently so maybe he'll get better known...that of course makes her happy and annoyed at the same time! She doesn't necessarily want everyone to know about him!

"Funky Town" - Pseudo Echo

"Little Darling" - Thin Lizzy

"Little Wing" - Derek and The Dominos

"Hanging Around" - The Stranglers

My dad (who's been having to lug into the show most nights I've been visiting - sorry, pappa, but, admit it - you've enjoyed it!) would appreciate a wee bit of Edith. I know her mother-tongue version is a three worder (and probably wouldn't pass the Scrabble test, either) but .... let's be adults about this and give her a whirl.
Autumn Leaves

THURSDAY


God Will - Lyle Lovett

For You - Judie Tzuke

Me Neither - Brad Paisley

California Dreamin' - Melanie

Sam Stone - John Prine ~ the version from the Souvenirs album, please.

Locomotive Breath - Jethro Tull ~ Will Uncle Vic grasp this opportunity? Aye!!!

'Freakin' Out' - Graham Coxon

'Release Me' - Johnny Adams (MUCH better than Englebert)

'Houston, Texas' - James Kirk (ex-Orange Juice)

'Drift Apart' - Ben Caplan and the Casual Smokers (what a great name for a band)

'Shining Star' - Kris Drever

The Ride - Joan As Police Woman

....outstanding track from "Real Life" which won the IMA top Pop album award in 2008

....Neil in fine voice (for him) as he switches to country mode

.......one that I particularly enjoy while driving, not really sure why



Paul from Ayr

British Sea Power - Waving Flags
Echobelly - Great Things
Counting Crows - Mr Jones
Edwyn Collins - Losing Sleep

#43 Yep...second that...would be good to hear it instead of the usual one with a two word title.

#45

Okay, I withdraw my request for Love Shack, unless you're going to play it anyway from the "McCafferty List".

#40

I'd just like to point out that whilst Patrick submitted two full pages of A4 for last night's show, henri hannah submitted just one track. It was ignored, of course. I've just compromised on Love Shack. I've been inspired by the conciliatory appeasements of King Abdullah. Consensus blogging - it's the way forward:-))

regardez youse

henri

The Boomtown rats - Diamond Smiles

Dave Edmunds - Girls Talk

#31 Gaie, that couldn’t possibly be the playlist as there are far too many pages.

Vic, I’ve never heard Airborne Toxic Event but if Gaie has requested it they are probably quite good, so please play one of the suggestions on the blog (you could sneak it on to Bryan’s playlist while he’s away)

Also, working in the Nuclear Power Industry, I feel a certain affinity to this band.

Bingo Bango, Basement Jaxx
One Week, Barenaked Ladies
Jump Around, House of Pain
Don't Go, Hothouse Flowers
Only You, Yazoo

#45 Rock Lobster?

Huge 2nd for #48 - one of my favourite songs & reminds me of when I got my first car (1968 Mark 1 Ford Escort) and put a radio in it without any help from my Dad. It didn't look great but it worked fine. It was probably the best bit of the whole car!

Sir Duke - Stevie Wonder
Only You - The Platters
Disco Stomp - Hamilton Bohannon
Mars Bar - The Undertones
At 17 - Janis Ian

#49 Thing-Fish - you have made my day -thank you!

and now I know why you sometimes ask for a band called Led Bib.

#32/#33 Seconding Joe Bonamassa shouts of course,

MOTH DILEMMA from BRING YOUR OWN by LED BIB

Dibble

Officer?

Ìý
Orifice

Dribble

Here's a hankie, Scotch. It may be secondhand, but there's some dry patches left on it. ;o)

I thought we were playing nearly anagrams...

I thought you were suffering from a cold or some form of incontinence.

Innocence, git.

thanks for the Toxics Unc Victor + Mandy!!! ...

on behalf of Gaie, moi, Elwe, ThingFish, the now (hopefully) appreciative GIO listeners, the previously sceptical GIO jury, and ... for the sake of goodness!

No ice gin. 1 cent

#61 seconded!
