aaah, the sounds of life.

I have a lot of music on my PC, and listern to older stuff sometimes, but love new music that creates an impact on me - heaps out there I love - chill/indie/folkpop stuff.
Worked a shift the other night, and had a station playing good old music, classic for the night wa 'Macarther park' - always love that for some reason.

I've just put on Neil Young's 1978 album "Come's a Time".
I bought it the other day, an upgrade to my vinyl, it brings back so many memories.

Ron, he's saying "don't you slip in love with those girls on the avenue". Stay away from them Ron, apparently their easy to fall in love with because they hang out of their window sills (hundreds of them), in this one avenue. They must all be lonely all at the same time. How unfortunate for them, poor things. (I really meant )
Now I have that song stuck in my head- so I guess that's what I'm listening to at the moment.

I currently have a few songs cued on itunes while I am sitting at the puter.

Better - Screaming Jets
See The Day - Girls Aloud
Wicked Game - Chris Isaak
Sunrise - Uriah Heep
Child In Time - Deep Purple

After that I will prolly cue a few Foreigner songs

Urgent
I Want to Know What Love Is
Waiting For a Girl Like You

(Lou Gramm has just a great male voice)

And after that I will probably go to another great male vocalist in Justin Hayward from the Moody Blues with

Forever Autumn
Knights in White Satin

After those finish I reckon it will be nearly bed time

Cheers,
John B

Ron, was it a live version? I just looked up the lyrics and there's no "flay" in it. Perhaps I need to download and listen to it, as singing that song in my head isn't cutting it! Goodness, now that song is stuck in my head again.

That is a fabulous playlist, there's a few I don't know (but you got such a great list, I think I may like them, so I will see if I can get them and copy your playlist. Yes, Lou Gramm is amazing (great news that he recovered well after a brain a tumour). As is Justin Hayworth. I was lucky enough to see Justin Hayworth in the War of the Worlds Live on stage a few years ago- he was incredible.

Sarah Blasko for some nice morning coffee and toast listening

We're playing D&D today (4th Ed) so we'll probably crank up some old school heavy metal and alternative stuff.

I've been hooked on for the past couple of weeks a Neil Young album called "Only Love Can Break Your Heart".
Its a gretest hits compilation.

Especially find myself replaying:-
"Down by the River"
"Cinnamon Girl" &
"Cowgirl in the Sand"

Hi David,

Well I can't play the guitar so I will have to take your word on it, as to its difficulty

At a guess, whilst Ritchie Blackmore might not be the greatest guitarist ever, there's plenty who slot in behind him in the "ability stakes", so I guess he plays a lot of riffs that are difficult. That having been said "Smoke on the Water" is the one song I can play on the guitar, so it has to be easy as.

I really like this song because it's more of a rock ballad which gives you the opportunity to appreciate what a great voice Ian Gillan has.

Cheers,
John B

Not only is this a great song to listen to, the video clip with Helena Christensen is excellent. She is an absolutely stunningly beautiful woman, and that's not being sexist it's paying her the ultimate compliment.

Cheers,
