Hello Bryan, Blogotariat....

How about 'Upstairs in my house' by MEN AT WORK? (Album: 'Cargo')
:)

... Or 'The Vendetta (Still helpless) by SAGA

I'm up each day
At the crack of dawn
Primed for the first inspection
He's running the home and the family
Like a military installation
(This can't be right)
(I feel so helpless)
I can't do this and I can't do that
I dare not make a move
Without his orders
No matter how well I do what I do
It's never good enough,
(not for him)
Helpless I feel so helpless
Helpless I don't like to be so helpless
I don't wish to feel in my own home
Some kind of prisoner
There must be a way to put a stop
To his violent behavior
Helpless I feel so helpless
Helpless I don't like to be so helpless
Somehow something's changed around the house
It suddenly seems so calm
Now what are we supposed to do
With all of this new found freedom
Helpless I feel so helpless
Helpless I don't like to be so helpless

Christophe, I'm intrigued (or maybe just nosy) - how come someone in France listens to GIO? Always assuming you're not yet another alter-ego of course...

I'll resist Caravan by the Inspiral Carpets & ask Bryan once again to look out Castles in Spain by the Armoury Show. GIO please.













So that's... ignore the caravan for the castle!

... Or 'home sweet home' by MOUSSU T e Lei Jovents
/ 'Black Sunday' by JETHRO TULL
excerpt: 'Back at the house there's a gray sky a-tumbling
Milk bottles piling on door steps a-crumbling
Curtains all drawn and cold water plumbing
Notepaper scribbles I read unbelieving
Saying how sorry, how sad was the leaving
One day too soon'

# 33_ Hello Gaie. Believe me I am French, born in Saint-Nazaire (in 1963) by the Atlantic but the family moved to Haute-Savoie by the end of 1968 when I was 6. I started taking lessons in English when I was 10 and then developed an interest for this language. A few years ago I fell in love with the Scottish variety of English watching 'My name is Joe' (Starring Peter MULLAN) and 'The winter guest' (Starring Phyllida LAW and Emma THOMPSON.
If still not convinced, then ask Bryan; I am sure he will confirm I am no fraud.
Oui oui, je suis né en France... Mais je me demande parfois si je n'ai pas des ancêtres Ecossais...

M. Naud (A poem by Pierre de Partique)

The world has held great Heroes,
As history-books have showed;
But never a name to go down to fame
Compared with that of Naud!

The clever men at Oxford
Know all that there is to be knowed.
But they none of them know one half as much
As intelligent M. Naud!

The animals sat in the Ark and cried,
Their tears in torrents flowed.
Who was it said, 'There's land ahead'?
Encouraging M. Naud!

The army all saluted
As they marched along the road.
Was it the King? Or Kitchener?
No. It was M. Naud.

The Queen and her Ladies-in-waiting
Sat at the window and sewed.
She cried, 'Look! Who's that HANDSOME man?'
They answered, 'M. Naud.'

It was still morning in New York City!

J'Amuse - Caravan Palace

Thanks to Mary-Doll, I have a copy of the first Caravan Palace album.

The Herald's recent review of the Caro Emerald gig expressed some surprise at the inclusion of a DJ in what was otherwise a Count Basie set up - but to understand the sudden rise and rise of Caro Emerald you have to first understand the extent o which our continental cousins love electro-swing. Reinhardt and Grappelli influenced,Caravan Palace is where it started, I think. interesting, but well worth a listen - doubtless not in the library.

Whut? Bgrit! Millennium Hand and Shrimp!
I stopped counting a long time ago.

Right, onto another list of stuff:

* Roger Waters - Home (from the criminally underknown Radio KAOS album):
It could be clay and it could be sand
Could be desert
Could be a tract of arable land
Could be a house, could be a corner shop
Could be a cabin by a bend in the river
Could be something your old man handed down
Could be something you built on your own
Everybody got something he calls home

* Siouxsie & the Banshees - Happy House
* The Soggy Bottom Boys - In The Jailhouse Now
* Billy Bragg - The Warmest Room
* Chris Isaak - Blue Hotel
* The Cure - Let's Go To Bed
* The Saw Doctors - Presentation Boarder (for all those who go away to school)
* Kate Bush - Under the Ivy (sometimes accommodation is a hiding place)
* Louis Armstrong (or, if you prefer, The White Stripes) - St James Infirmary
* Tom Jones - Ain't No Grave
* Sinéad O'Connor - I Am Stretched On Your Grave
* The Who - Magic Bus (with thoughts of Summer Holiday and Magical Mystery Tour)

Can't afford to buy then you may want to rent accommodation
