What are you playing tonight?

If you have a life outside of BWFC, then this is the place to tell us all about your toilet habits, and those bizarre fetishes.......

Bit of the romantic stuff tonight. Two versions of Some Enchanted Evening; Bryn Terfel (fantastic voice) and a Frank Sinatra/Rosemary Cloony duet. They don't write em like that anymore. :wink:

Quality song. The lyrics are brilliant.
The beat that my heart skipped by them is good n'all.

Radcliffe and Maconie? Cracking show, that. 8-10pm, Mon-Thu, R2 (and online). Highly recommended.

The Blackburn game, followed by that, followed by waking up to the person I associate most with the Wanderers buggering off has me on the edge. The whites had better win tomorrow............

Agreed, though the first hour is justifiably lost to the utterly brilliant Marc Riley on 6Music.

Not listening to it yet, but in the process of buying some Tom Lehrer after being impressed with what I heard on a documentary the other night. Mordant early-'60s American satirist, he gave it up after a while, apparently because he thought satire died when Henry Kissinger was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

Tempted - very tempted – to look up lyrics, but I think I'll listen to them as intended: in situ.

To Lose My Life - White Lies.

Just happened to pick it up on the way through a Service Station last week, as a bit of "speculation". Probably too poppy for me generally, but I have to say what a strange sound. It's a sort of cross/blend of Morrisey happy lyrics, with bits of "dark side of the 80's" riffs and I'm sure I heard a bit of a Big Country riff in there too. All in all a bit bizarre.

I can't see this being beaten in the Album of the Year stakes:

It's reaffirmed my faith in music.
It's magnificent.
It reaches a certain level of grandeur not usually found in modern day studio recordings.
I'm astonished by how superb it is.
WOW.

Just listened to a Radio 3 recording of Federico Garcia Lorca's brilliant play 'Blood Wedding' - a wonderful, cruel, remorseless, heartbreaking masterpiece that just tears you apart...

And so truthful about the terrible places that even ordinary human beings might find themselves... About love and betrayal and jealousy and murder, all of it scattered with poetry and music and song and guitars...

sombre, moving but very fulfilling..

different tuesday night than usual, folks...

TFFT!!! You bet...
