The immortal Luke Kelly, with Raglan Road, from my neck of the woods in leafy D4. Currently learning this on the uke. Progress unimpressive.

Huge fan. The bluegrass tune that accompanies the ‘everything’ montage for the Story Badge is a stone-cold classic. Can’t work out if it’s an original or something from back in the day. It’s that good. A-woof!

Negative Ghost Rider. The first word of Bo Rhap (as any fule know) is “is”…

Same gig, I reckon…

Best Bond theme since, like, evs. Tipping point for me was at some pre-Academy Awards show when she sang Skyfall. She was clearly not giving it the full welly as there were problems with her vocal cords, but all […]

It’s a brilliant commentary track and sparkling work throughout from Affleck, for which I’ll forgive him practically anything (up to and including Batman v Superman)

Sorry Junior, great idea and would have been on board but won’t make this Thursday. Let me know next time – I’m Bayside but work in the city.

How strange the change.

Every Time We Say Goodbye – Ella Fitzgerald

Strongly agree. Their none-more-country version of “The Fly” a definite improvement on the original

Bursts into tears. Good one.

Thanks team. Super Mario Galaxy has been played through five times worn through two Wiis and multiple controllers, and about-to-turn-nine girl is smashing through it effortlessly. She’s also conquered Minecraft so […]

I’m with you, KFD, love the Spyboy live versions of the tunes (Buddy Miller on Red Dirt Girl especially) but Lanois’ own version of Where Will I Be has its own charm.

“Discordant Pig” – couldn’t agree more, beautifully phrased and, of course, TMFTL in accordance with the prophecy

In the Godfather, the studio head awakens with a horse’s head in his bed. What was the name of the horse?

Couldn’t agree more Gangle. Bumbly is exactly the right word. My eight-year-old daughter is my muse, my sidekick, my hero, the best part of the week (we go out for breakfast every Saturday morning) and I covet her company.

Mrs. ‘Wardo just walked in halfway through “Whispers and Moans” and pronounced herself “disappointed with their new stuff.” Philistine.

Junior I have it playing downstairs – tunes as stunning as always, hopefully Tim comes out later in the show – but the pictures and sound are way out of sync? What do you reckon, or is it my three-martini lunch talking?

Glad you enjoyed it. It wasn’t for me. I found it portentous, not-all-that-inspiring, monotonous to look at (although I’m with Jeff on Amy Adams’ all round likeability) and, in the end, irritating more than […]

Bingo you’ve inadvertently sold it in to me for the for the a. lack of threat and b. potential attractiveness of boring adventures with small children. On that kid-friendly basis, is there anything else you’d […]
