Well I tell you what – Murder on the Dancefloor would be much much better if….

I’m joking! I’m joking!

Jacinda brought that rule in across the board in NZ last July. It’s a bit inconvenient sometimes but generally everyone agrees it is a good move.

Some of the bands I like claim bigger global sales than many of these listed. Mainly due to strong followings in continental Europe and South America. I also think Indian and Chinese acts have sold oodles in […]

That’s a perfect example.

I will also weigh in with Anyone Can Fall in Love by Anita Dobson. I’m not saying that the Eastenders theme is sacred or wonderful, just that it didn’t need a version with a vocalist.

I did hospital radio shows in the late 80s and I used the TLU instrumental quite a bit when reading out that week’s top 10 illnesses.

You don’t always need tunes. The thing I like about electronic and house music is hearing the occasional groovy sweet spot that doesn’t need a Tin Pan Alley songwriter to develop it into a traditional song. Many […]

Records by these artists might also do the job:

Lino Richie
The Carpeters

I feel I need to word this carefully because I will come across as a heartless pig – but politically I don’t think this will harm Keir Starmer at all.

I think those who have been accused should have a right to name suppression until found guilty. Why isn’t it done like that?

Hope so!

Stock/Aitken/Waterman probably bashed this off in about 20 minutes. It has their “Hi Nrg” beat setting, which you hear in many of their songs. And Hazell Dean, a solid performer with a good voice but lacking the […]

Just gave that a go and two of my children (11 & 14) overheard and sang along. Seems well known song, given they knew the words. Opens with what sounds like a Depeche Mode sample so that’s also a big tick.
