Mmm...nice and laid back.

Cornershop - Sleep On The Left Side

Edited because I'm brain dead this morning.

Here's a nice little hangover ditty: Sublime - What I got (reprise)

[Keef]

After the talk of slash in the quiz thread, I found this clip of 2 of my guitar hereos basically showing off!

Slash & Zakk Wylde

I also found this mightily impressive Zakk Wylde solo

Goddamn, this is good:

Eli 'Paperboy' Reed - I'm Gonna Getcha Back

This is, unbelievably, from last year. And he's white. And from Boston. WTF.

I'm loving this punky Cyndi Lauper / Hives Christmas duet. Really festive. Gets you in the mood for a bit of turkey.

Hives

I bought no gifts this year

And I slept with your sister

I know I should have thought twice before I kissed her

But with the year we had last

And the dress that she wore

I just went along for the ride

And I came back for more

And I?m sorry, baby

Cyndi

(That?s all okay honey cause see)

I bought no tree this year

And I slept with your brother

I wrecked your Daddy?s car

And went down on your Mother

I set your record collection on fire

And said I never knew

Felt kind of bad about that

And I know you did too

So whatever you say, it?s all fine by me

Who the f@#k anyway wants a Christmas tree

Duet : Cyndi Lauper and The Hives

Cause the snow keeps on fallin

Even though we were bad

It?ll cover the filth, we should both just be glad

And spend this Christmas together

The Hives

I married you last year

Bet you thought I was sober, right?

But I was drunk as a skunk and I made a mistake

This could all have been over

Cyndi

Ah honey please don?t excuse your behaviour

Cause I hired a hitman and changed your will

It?s now all in my favour

So whatever you say, it?s all fine by me

Who the f@#k anyway wants a Christmas tree

Cause the snow keeps on fallin

Even though we were bad

It?ll cover the filth, we should both just be glad

And spend-spend-spend this Christ-Christmas together

[mockney piers]

"And spend-spend-spend this Christ-Christmas"

Is that Gordon Brown's proposed Christmas single? ;)

[mockney piers]

sublime mid 90s guitarry pop, oh Britpop, why did you overshadow some of those who were actually rather good?!

Swervedriver - birds

[SeanMacGabhann]

This came on whilst stomping to work this morning - let it build, play it loud and then feel 10 foot tall

(if I recall correctly Mrs Mockney was quite taken with this at a recent Union Chapel Gig

Mmm good choice Piers. Which reminds me, Luke Haines has a new hilariously bitchy auto-biography out at the moment. Here he is with the Auteurs, another band overshadowed by some less talented peers:

The Auteurs - Lenny Valentino

[mockney piers]

great video Sean. Weirdly shades of Money for Nothing in it (the video no the song) though obviously made on something better than Acorn Archimedes!!

Ooh the Auteurs, one of those bands I'd meant to investigate more thoroughly, now my chance.

[SeanMacGabhann]

I loved that Valentino single back in the day. I loved Haine's later band as well - Black Box Recorder

Plus he has just released a book which looks veeery entertaining

Bah....you beat me to BRR and Facts of Life, Sean.

That was going to be my next post. I luuuurve that track, especially on a hot summers afternoon.

[SeanMacGabhann]

The intersection on our musical venn diagram got just a smidge bigger then? wow...

[mockney piers]

Sean, our venn diagram is basically a circle with a tiny Half Man Half Biscuit shaped dot on it's edge!!

[SeanMacGabhann]

and even then I only pick on them for divilment!

It's the Carnell/MacGabhann venn that looks like Katie Price

That's very sad he was a great singer/songwriter with a unique guitar style. Liked a drink too.
