Not sure I really get where this topic starts and ends.
Might give it a miss.

‘Mercy Now’ Mary Gauthier
Think this fits the theme and of course your new government.

You can always 'phone a friend', maybe even from your hometown.

Who's to say where the wind will take you?

Had a couple of Weller ones I was thinking about. The Bitterest Pill about jealousy but after last night's performance I've gone for

The Style Council - My Everchanging Moods

Listen to Acts of Man by Frightened Rabbit, for a synopsis of this theme.

Wait until you hear the playlist finale... a threespires inspired special! ;-)

Lets go cheery for a Thursday afternoon.

Justin Currie - the fight to be human


Stick with it and let it seep in, a lot more to it then initially meets the ear. Stretches out a bit, but builds through it too. Just like, the condiditon of being human.

'I cringe into my collar and shrink into my shoes, as cheerleaders holler, which colour are you' is such a great line. Increasingly more and more apt to society.

Before I post this, I’d just like to point out that my Dad was fantastic - the best dad anybody could have asked for. But not everybody is so lucky …..

“Plywood Superman” - Jim White

Now my old daddy, he worked in a factory
And he used to beat on me with his mind not his hands
And though for ten years he's laid in that grave in Birmingham
To this day I still hear him saying what a useless thing I am

Nat King Cole - Nature Boy

 

[Out on blue 6]

Fall falling, falling again
Cause I want to take the pleasure with the pain
Fall falling, falling and laughing
Cause I want to take
The pleasure with the pain

Orange Juice - Falling and Laughing

@Black&White&BlueMoon Town - you might want to swap the version of "Shut Out The Light" because it's greyed out in my playlist. Better to go with the version from Tracks that is available on UK Spotify.

Bruce Springsteen: “The River”

Bruce Springsteen: “The River”

Almost went for that. Probably my favourite Bruce song, at least in the top 3.

Paolo Nutini - iron sky

Although coulda gone with Pencil Full of lead too for a bit more upbeat Friday

Good album that, think he's underrated. Wonder how many times that film has been sampled over the years?

Got it swapped in, same spot too. Thanks for the heads up. I liked the visuals on the single, but if one can't listen, it's no good.

Great shout by OB1 on "The River" too. I was hoping someone would. Perfect song for anyone pressed for time from the threads! ;-)

Lots of applicable songs off that album too. We wouldn't change this thing even if we could somehow.

I like playlists where the lyrics and the way they are delivered are pronounced, and this one and overall this week has not disappointed. Songs like this was what I was hoping to find here. Thanks.
