    4. Saints present record of three games without a goal.

    2. Killing Joke - Killing Joke

    3. Vulture Street - Powderfinger

  3. Well aware that there will be some ridicule on this but too bad. top five musical products from Elton John:-

    2. Captain Fantastic & the Brown Dirt Cowboy

    3. Tumbleweed Connection

    4. Madman Across the Water

    5. The Best of (from 1990)

  4. You lot are getting me worried. Field of Dreams? One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest? BRASSED OFF????? You're at it, former VW Angel, aren't you?

    And I have to admit that Betty Blue certainly got some kind of bodily fluid going but it never came from anywhere above the waistline.

    It's pieces of music like Forbidden Colours by David Sylvian and Ryuichi Sakamoto or Wallflower by Peter Gabriel you should be consdiering. The only thing I've ever watched that gave me any emotion was Football First from Sunday 30th April 2000. And that should be the same for you lot as well. Consider yourselves suitably chastised. Ya weirdos. :blink:

  5. To paraphrase Bob Geldof, "The Clash were like The Bay City Rollers. I didn't believe in them, but I believed utterly in The Pistols".

    Funnily enough, John Lydon speaks very highly of the great Canadian and, lest we forget, My My Hey Hey makes reference to the young (at the time) punk upstart.

    Think I'll go along with that rather than a band of hypocrites who wouldn't go on Top Of The Pops as a protest against commerciality then let a song of theirs be used in a jeans advert......

  6. 1. Powderfinger

    2. Like A Hurricane

    3. Rockin' In The Free World

    4. Ohio

    5. Cortez The Killer

    Extra top five:-

    6. Don't Cry No Tears

    7. Pocahontas

    8. Southern Man

    9. The Needle And The Damage Done

    10. Heart Of Gold

    Aye, probably completely different tomorrow. The first three will still be in there, though.

  7. How could you forget...

    Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way.

    Oh what fun it is to feck the Ton on New Year's Day...

    :o

    Easy to forget that, Reidy. We haven't had the chance for a while. Think it might be sung next year.....

  8. New Years is all about Aunties, Uncles and Grannies and grampas singing auld stuff, none of yer George Square PISH!!!:

    New Years Eve the way it should be. :)

    :unsure::unsure::unsure: You worry me at times, Sid :unsure::unsure::unsure:

  9. 1. Stranglers, No More Heroes

    2. Clash, White Riot

    3. AC DC Whole lotta rosie.

    4. Jam, In the city

    5. Skids, Albert Tatlock

    Joe, wasn't that Skids song actually called TV Stars? I know the chorus was "ALBERT TATLOCK!!!!" but I'm sure the title wasn't.

    Donga, Weld is a great album. Superb versions of Powderfinger, Cortez The Killer, Like A Hurricane & Rockin' In The Free World.

    Incidentally, I heard a cracking version years ago of Like A Hurricane by Roxy Music. Worth checking out. I think it was a mini live album called The High Road. I could be wrong. I could be right. As some bloke once said.

  10. Oh, it's YAMAHA drums. For years I thought it was "Larry Mullen plays piano & drums".

    Wouldn't mind a copy of that. I taped over the start of it so I missed Gloria and part of I Threw A Brick. Plus the fact, it's a feckin' old tape and will probably get chewed if I play it.

    Tiffany's gig it was indeed. A great set. During Seconds he forgets the words but goes "Gonna make it up as I go along, don't care if it's right or wrong".

    Ah the memories!

    "Good night, God bless you, thank you. This is Out Of Control".

  11. No, no, no, no, NO!!!! You silly fool!!!

    It's:-

    1. Kangaroo knob-cheese

    2. Koala knob-cheese

    3. Shark knob-cheese

    4. Turtle knob-cheese

    5. Duck-billed platypus knob-cheese

    All of which I'm sure you can attain at Edinburgh zoo, Mr. T. Myself, I prefer Danii Minge-ogue love juice and the erogenous zones of Natalie In-brew-leave-her.

    That reminds me, talking of Kylie's sister, I believe that Firhill Saint has had the pleasure of seeing her breast operation scars. All in the line of duty, you understand.

    Would you like to confirm this, oh fellow Rush appreciator?

  12. Special mention for the late, great Billy MacKenzie of the Associates. His voice was A-MAZING. Down on the ground one second then soaring above the clouds the next.

    As for the weemin, joni Mitchell should definitely be in my top five. Superb songs and great vocals. Check out Hejora, The Hissing of Summer Lawns and Ladies of the Canyon. Great line from her, "Like a priest looking in longing at a pornographic watch". Fantastic.

    Also, Julianne Reagan from All About Eve. A voice like a feckin' angel.

  13. 1. Johnny Jarvis

    2. Cracker

    3. One Summer

    4. Made in Britain

    5. The Prisoner

    Some of the old Play For Today stuff was good. There was one called The Flipside of Dominic Hyde about a guy who goes back in time to meet his grandfather, meets a girl instead, shags her and becomes his OWN grandfather. Caroline Langrishe is the damsel in question and ye get tae see her in a small bikini. Exceelent stuff!

    Oh aye, and I thought This Life was an unmitigated pile of arty-farty w**k. Just didn't like it at all and they all needed a good boot up the arse.
