It’s an Oasis song

I meant the subtitles

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

I meant the subtitles

The subtitles were the best thing he’s released since Oasis?

England, liverpool, does it matter? Both teams managed by bellends and both are gonna win fuck all.

And Noel definitely said “this one’s for all the City fans …” before playing “What a Life’. Top fella

Not much proper rock music this year, or in recent years., sadly dwindled away.

I'm not into Rap at all. The rest is mostly easy listening or pop. Herbie Hancock really??

Wolf Alice my favourite band this year by a mile. NGHFBs also OK. Blossoms OK ish.

Pet Shop Boys "back in the day" were never anyone's favourite band but they had hit after hit, and nearly everyone had at least one song they liked.
My favourite was always "West End Girls" but "Always on my Mind" was great too.
Even now, hearing one of their tracks, reminds me of walking into a nightclub and feeling like life's problems were left at the door ;-)

Got some tickets today for their tour next year. Superb last night

It won't change anything in the big picture. We are about to open a new coal mine in Cumbria. Mainly due to the area needing high quality jobs apparently.

That's not the reason. We need high grade coal for our steel industry. The alternative is to import it from you guessed it Russia.

Really pisses me off, those having a go at Paul McCartney…admittedly I love The Beatles and was a McCartney more than a Lennon fan, but no-one can deny he has been a genius over his musical life. At the end of the day, he was only playing this year, as he was due to do it a few years ago before COVID hit…give the guy a break…he could have used any manner of gadgets to make him sound better, but stayed true to his faith by playing live. He’s also 80 ffs and as you get older the voice goes…mine, at 68, is dogshit compared to what it was when I was 50 even…you don’t forget the songs though and that’s what people went for…my dad died just after his 80th after he was struck down with dementia a few years before, so he has done fantastically well to still look as good as he does…

And all the press are telling us that the highlights were Diana Ross & Macca. Obviously written before either set foot on stage

McCartneys was a highlight for me tbh. Abbey road medley was enough in itself to make it so, plenty of other great moments too though.

 

[BlueBlood84]

Kendrick was great, though I felt like he was at risk of Jarvis Cocker invading the stage during the Christ imagery ending.

Just to be present when Paul came on stage would be immense one day I will be there, (if he came up north) he is a living legend
80 and still puts himself out there no one cares what he sounds like. In front of the Queen
