³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ

Not easy for me, but vther is a great vtrack which has my first name, and yes Lloyd I am:

Ready To Be Heartbroken - Lloyd Cole and his wee Commotions

"Read Norman Mailer, or get a new tailor,
Are you ready to be Heartbroken"

Camera Obscura

"Yes lloyd I'm ready to be Heartbroken"

probably by norriemaclean......worth it I suspect

The first time I was made aware was by John, Paul, George & Ringo and the Priest!

#1 There Goes Norman... another Rocking Humdinger!

2 or 3 obvious choices but I'm sick of them...SICK...do you hear?...and no I don't love you...I barely know you...sharrap!!!

How about songs I actually like...

'Terry meets Julie, Waterloo Station, every Friday night...
'Waterloo Sunset' - The Kinks

But...I'd really LOVE to hear...'Julie's In The Drug Squad' by The Clash

I will love you if you play that x

#4

Sigh! So grumpy thinking about those horrible songs I got the title of the one I like wrong...

'Julie's Been Working For The Drug Squad'

Hello hello...

OK maybe not that one!

#6 ha ha ha! good one

The Who - 'Little Billy'

The Sweet - 'Little Willy'

Re photo and blog - I suspect our beloved presenter knows full well there is no song, yet alone a No.1 with the word Norrie in it...Henri and DC must be in with a shout...

I've got one. A ZZ Top favourite of Olgas.

Olegs she knows how to use them

#7 Billy's Third... another Rocking Humdinger!

Does your name have to be in the TITLE??? Well my Clash suggestion still stands. Phew!

TUESDAY


'One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer' - George Thorogood

'Git Your Buisquits in the Oven and Your Buns in the Bed' - Kinky Friedman


Play them both! They've been requested often enough...

In the TITLE!! Bit harsh

Oh sigh...

Sue Thompson - Norman

I suspect Thursday's theme will be Secrets.

A suspicion based on the reluctance to inform us.

>8-D

Sssssh

Well pointed out JfE.. scrub #2!

Another go, please don't blame R.E.M; they weren't responsible for beaming signals into the heads others!

#13, #15

Guess who was gonna request Une Nuit A Paris?

Och, weel. Back to the drawing room...

BRING ME THE SIGNALS INTO THE HEAD OF ALFREDO GARCIA!

'Fessin' up. My name's neither mary, nor doll.
It's as celebrated in a song by Caravan Palace. ;o)

'It don't mean a thing (if it ain't got that swing) ~~~ Ella Fitzgerald

so the choice is

Gaye - Clifford T Ward - can't stand it

Glad to be Gay - Tom Robinson - don't think so

Gay Gordons - Jimmy Shand - think I'll sit this one out

ps, in case the team's speed-reading the blog again as in, how did they miss the post about DC's faither, I DO NOT want ANY of the above played.

Thanking you.

The Beatles - Elean NOR RIEgby

Who could have come up with that!!!

JESUS WAS A CAPRICORN - Kris Kristofferson


{:-{)}

Walker Brothers - NOR RIEgrets...

Norman - Carol Deene - Is the obvious one

Beyond DC - Bobby Darin

Incredibly, it exists!

Meandering through Spotify and came across:

Henry Hannah's 42nd St Parking Lot - Long John Baldry

Amazing. It sounds good. I can't believe it. I've only just realised that my childhood nickname might have come form a song I didn't know existed until tonight. It was me who first spelt it with an 'i' for effect.

I almost fell off my seat when I heard it - downloaded ! That's what I love about GIO, learning by doing.

You simply have to play this.

Jeezo.......

Henri,

I seem to recall MadMac drawing our attention to this track a long long long long time ago.

I thought you might have gone with the 10cc track. (see #20)

Ever tried do sing any od de Eagles without the benefid od sudafed?

Take i DC

Song for Paul - Jaymay

#36

I must have missed that post!

The 10CC track is clever, as always, but i don't enjoy it really - it was a comedic Bohemian Rhapsody (and I just plain hate Bohemian Rhapsody) - not their best work, and I don't care for comedy songs (like I'm 'enery the 8th) in general.

I also came across a charming song called 'Henri' by Marie Kiss La Joue.

By the way. there's a song called 'Scotch Krotch' by West Bruce & Laing if you're interested.

#25: yep, I'm disappointed they missed DC's Dad.It was on theme too.

regardez youse

Whilst looking

Scotch on the rocks / band of the black watch
Down in the Glen / Alexander bros
Cousin Norman / marmalade
Frankie / sister sledge
Gaie bar / electric six

Every one a classic

However it would be one of lifes great travesties if three men from carntyne didn't get on tonight.

Its Brooce time for some of our bloggers!

Adam From Rio Raised A cain

Mary Dolls Place

Marias Bed

Frankie (In Denny)

Jesus was An Only Son

Senga Darling

Wild Billy In Alloa Circus Story

Three men fae Carntyne by Billy Connolly actually describes a recently sacked Senga's trip from the local milk parlour to the Social Security office, accompanied by a rather large, dark animal, three men, some smokes and a bottle of alcohol.

I'm sure Senga would be over the moon to be reminded of that wee journey

DC

I have stumbled on an appropriate song called The Poison Glen by Scotch's cousins. Here is the last verse:

Laa laa laa laa laa laa laa laa laa
Laa laa laa laa laa laa laa laa
Laa laa laa laa laa laa laa laa laa
Laa laa laa laa laa laa laa laa
Laa laa laa laa laa laa laa
Laa laa laa laa laa laa
Laa laa laa laa laa laa
Laa laa laa laa laa laa

Tolstoy it is not.

Valse Gaie op 139 - Saint-Saens

s'il vous plait - c'est très jolie

merci

et merci Paolo, mais electric six, c'est exécrable

'Git Out Of Denver'

Gaiems Without Frontiers - Peter Gabriel

Ramius A Ding Dong - Rocky Sharpe and The Replayes

Anne not easy on its own - don't even think about calling me Annie to play the JD abomination! resorted to google (antivirus got a bit upset at some of the music sharing sites - so gave up). Found a very tortured song by John Frusciante - not what we need on a sunny Tuesday!
So resorting to my middle name - Margaret, so please play Maggie May by Rod Stewart, but remember I'll deck anyone who calls me Maggie to my face!!!!
Its a just a great song!

Josh Ritter - Anne?

Bowie, 'John I'm Only Dancing'

J.O'B.

Enema homage theft...

God, I'm bored.

Thank-you - wasn't aware of that! Pretty dismal lyrics - reminds me of Gordon Lightfoot's line "her name was Anne and I'll be darned if I recall her face". Not easy to find anything upbeat about Annes.
PS due to 36 Mbps broadband in Plean I'm still downloading the Josh Ritter track!

What do you expect? She's only twelve...

* Double - (will allow you the Randy Crawford cover. Just)
* Crooked Still - Captain, Captain
* Beltane -

Ah but surely captain is your title? And a well earned one I'm of no doubt. I refer you to #46

'Jolly Captain' - Jake Thackray

Dancing with the Captain - Paul Nicholas

Norrie Grets - The Walker Brothers
Henri the lonely - Roy Orbison
EC like a Sunday morning - Lionel Richtea

There's also The Captain - Leonard Cohen too. It's Great.

I listened to Henry Hannah's 42nd St Parking Lot again and to my astonsihment it closes by raising doubt about the existence of henry hannah.

You couldn't make it up.

SOMETHING-FISHY GOING ON by DOLLY PARTON

Fish thing you make my heart sing ☺

I would just like to make clear that I don't want to be associated with that Paper Lace song!

There's a plaice for us...

#77

"And then you go and spoil it all by saying something silly like DC."

Dont be a Silly Billy. There is nothing wrong with Paper Lace. You couldn't win Opportunity Knocks three weeks running if you didnt have talent and I'll bet there's not a dry eye in the house if BDBAH gets played tonight.

#79

Make that five weeks on the trot.

Billy Bragg -- "Richard"

Someone had to make a Billy Bragg suggestion tonight and I'm just the man to do it.

Rich in North Carolina

The programme where you chew the mosaic.

Didn't Pablo your Mind / Delfonics

D.C.If my memory serves me well you are immortalised in a song by Love called "Signed D.C."!With a name like William with all its permutations I (and Billy from Alloa)are spoiled for choice.If only Joni Mitchell had written "Willie"for me but it was Willie Nash better known of course as Graham who got that honour.My other 60s favourite "chick"was Laura Nyro whose "Wedding Bell Blues"mentions "Bill"but not in the title so thats out then but on her first album she sings a haunting little song called "Billy's Blues".The Smiths "William it was really nothing"is the 4th variation in a theme of William as I cant think of any songs that mention Wullie!Cheers William Bartke

aye there is. wee Wullie winkie.

#94

I'd forgotten about Signed DC. Probably not a great choice as I think it's about a suicide note. Decide at the end of the programme.

#94

And the Hollies' "Hey Willy" of course.

Dougie Dignity's deflated, distraught and downcast.

Dis it work?

Mmmmm.........
