Re: Smiffs

Al,

No, you're not a bore. You're normally quite lucid. Which is why I decided to give you the benefit of the doubt and listen to Sandie and her chums. I shall not do so again. Apart from the time lapse between Bryan letting it rip and me reaching the channel changer.

I'm A Cuckoo - Belle and Sebastian

if not maybe try these..

The Final Arrears - Mull Historical Society
In My Place - Coldplay
White Winter Hymnal - Fleet foxes
Let Love In - The Goo Goo Dolls

#27 2nd for In My Place - Coldplay.

Indeed Julie the opening from that song just makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up :).

Although I have to say I will not be disappointed if he played B&S instead as they really don't have a lot of 2 or one word title's I can suggest ^_^.

Caption Where's mah Dignity gone??

re 9 ... class ...

now then GIO jury ... look into my eyes ... the eyes ... look into them ...

despite your obvious aversion to anything toxic, you SHALL play the following track on Wednesday's three little words show...

'Sometime Around Midnight' ~~ Airborne Toxic Event

when I stop typing everything will be but a blur ...

#1
La-di-dah, 3 "words" ?????

On Alison Again - didn't we have Hold Back The Night - The Trammps on 'parts of the day' night last week? Makes all these big lists look a bit silly does it no?
Still, I dont suppose Angel of Harem will ever be beat (3 times in the same week).

My eldest has just gone off to work in The City of London - a part of the world I do business with quite a lot myself. The scale of London never ceases to amaze me, and I don't know if I'm unusual, but I think London is a great place to be.... but it has it's own dangers...this song reflects that..

I don't recall that we've ever heard Nitin Sawhney - one of my all time favourite artists - played on GIO but I feel this track will make a huge impression upon the listeners..

Days Of Fire - Nitin Sawhney (feat Natty) from the album London Undersound.

If you're not familiar with this, check it out..must be in the library, surely?

regardez youse

If it doesn't get played Julie will be terribly, terribly upset.


And it will be Adam's fault.

Bully-from-Brazil


;o)

#5, 32 & 35 I think Adam is quite correct to question the validity of that song, after all three word titles must be the commonest number you can get, hence more pedantry needs to be applied to the track selection :-)

sorry Julie

...now it must be at least 3 days since I requested anything by Joan Wasser so.........

To Be Loved - Joan As Police Woman

....beautiful celebration of that feeling that nothing else can equal *sigh* and previously unrequested, from that "difficult second album" To Survive

also


In My Life - The Beatles

....sentimentality that I CAN listen to again and again.........


Turn Turn Turn - The Byrds


.....and every word the same


Paul from Ayr

#5, 32 & 35....and of course apologies to you too Scotch....speshly if it turns out to be as good as u both suggest ;-)

'City Of Night' - Pink Martini...Henri would like to hear it too no doubt!

#32, #36

It's just as well that Julie and I do not require your approval.

The decision will be made by our beloved presenter and his no less beloved producer.

I know they will do that which is correct in the interests of natural justice.

'Real Real Gone'- Bettye LaVette

another Elvis suggestion...'She's Not You'

"The Enemy Guns" by DeVotchKa - absolutely BRILLIANT song. Always gets me blood pumping. Wish I'd thought of it for the Whistling theme night.

#51 the letters actually meant something though, energy is the product of the mass and the square of the speed of light in a vacuum.

Believe it or not, these letters mean a wee bit more than la, di and da , hyphenated or otherwise

>8-D

....and you can hyphenate these??????

#67

As Kinky Friedman is wont to say; Why the hell not?!?

You might well hyphenate them. But it's clearly a different matter getting the song played. There we are, then. Done and dusted.

#68 you might have had a point if you typed

Why-the-hell-not-?-!-?
