Yeah i heard this earlier today. Moby was Skyping from poolside, L.A., man, to Radcliffe & Maconie on 6Music. He was saying ( as usual) how inspiring New Order were to him blah blah blah.But yeah anyway, this possibly the most uplifting song i've heard today . Found myself wishing the song went on a bit longer.Maybe a couple of minutes longer actually.


I liked the video .Wayne Coynne and Moby looking very smart in their Mariachi outfits and the final scenes with the beautiful L.A. people on the rooftop sunset.Also thought the roller skating ghosts bit went really well with the delightful guitar solo bit starting at 1.58.

A lad i used to work with told me a bizarre tale some years back that he shared magic mushrooms with Wayne Coynne and friends in some woods near Barby in the Northamptonshire countryside very near to where i live ( i live in Warwickshire but near the Northamptonshire border). Always puzzled me what on earth Wayne Coynne would be doing in Northamptonshire but the lad who told me the story was always sound and certainly not one for making up bullshit stories

It kind of feels like the natural successor to that Elbow song. A Day Like This was it called? That kind of big inspiring anthem thing going on. Though it needs to go on a bit longer.

I don't know much about it, but it's worth a listen:

Josh Molot - Treffpunk Darf Nicht Geändert Werden [Beta Version]

Josh Molot - 'Treffpunk Darf Nicht Geändert Werden'

i am listening to my son listening to pixies live at itunes fest or something terribly modern like that, and occasionally playing along with his guitar. i feel proud.

pixies sound good too.

Gosh i'd long forgotten this song but then i haven't watched Blue Velvet for about 20 years. The song soundtracks two or three scenes in the film but perhaps most intensely right at the end when the Robin appears on the window sill, confirming Sandy's dream in which Robins represent hope for humanity.

So, you know when a song becomes really well known, it's quite hard to re-imagine it in a different way. I've heard professional musicians say this too, and even remixers. Well the next time you want inspiration for an original cover version, just look to Yoko Ono.

best tv theme EVER. bar none. heart-stopping. makes my ribs fit to burst, just as it did all those years ago. remember having to WAIT A WEEK for your favourite programme, and then the unbearable excitement of the new episode starting?!

i've been listening to the new mazzy star album which is frankly wonderful. also this, which is a lovely companion piece, and made for evenings like these.

I remember buying the Julee Cruise version on 7" with the instrumental on the B side.

And then there was this:


which became this:

There's a soundtrack album for Eraserhead? God , wouldn't that consist of just industrial factory noise drone, loud gas radiators and malformed babies crying ?
