‘In My Life’ is my absolute favourite Beatles song. It has a ‘looking back’ undertone, but it’s also hopeful. It’s recognising that, although you’ll always look back at people you loved and lost, you’ll also move forward. My sister had a habit of putting on really bizarre sunglasses, making a peace sign with her hands, [...]

Justin Currie News

I was thrilled to find that Justin Currie has released a second solo CD, ‘The Great War.’ After having listened to the samples on Amazon, a unanimous verdict was reached: We must have this CD. Granted, I’m incredibly biased in that there are only three Del Amitri songs that I don’t actually like, and [...]
On the Outside

I’ve been thinking a great deal about the ‘technical’ aspects of SRA lately. The what is done and how it’s done bit. Programming is *incredibly* sophisticated, and I don’t really want to go into that at the moment. I do, however, want to recommend a song: ‘When I’m Gone’ by 3 Doors Down. Driving to [...]
An Unexpected Shock
Posted in General Ranting, Music, tagged BBC Radio 2, Music, rant on 1 September 2009 | 2 Comments »
Here I am this morning, minding my own business and listing to the digital broadcast of Radio 2, when something horrible happens– I hear the not-so-mellifluous tones of one Taylor Swift. I’ll admit that, even though American radio has so much more variety, I prefer BBC Radio (specifically 2). Hearing that particular singer, then, was [...]
Inspiration

Yesterday was a bit difficult, and as I’ve said many times, music gets me through sometimes. One of the most peaceful and inspirational songs I’ve ever heard is Colin Hay’s ‘Waiting for My Real Life to Begin,’ so I wanted to post it here in hopes that someone else might be comforted by it as [...]

I have been *angry* lately. Not that frustrated sort of anger that goes away quickly. The kind that makes you feel like you’ve got something volcanic deep inside that might erupt at any moment. I’m irritated and quick-tempered, and none of this is like me at all. It’s only been a few years since I’ve [...]
New Page
Posted in Music, tagged blog changes, Music, song lyrics, song recommendations on 10 March 2009 | Leave a Comment »
For those of you who read the blog via RSS or mail programmes, I wanted to let you know I’ve added a page on song recommendations, called, appropriately ‘Song Recommendations’. It’s at the top of the homepage and will be added to probably more often than one would think. That’s another thing about DID– millions [...]

Excellent song by Simon and Garfunkel that I relate to in an odd way. It’s not exactly my story, but so much of it resonates with me. There are days when I just feel tired. Not in the sense that I didn’t get enough sleep, but in the sense that the weight of my past [...]
All Is Well

The Vatican has forgiven John Lennon for his little blunder from about 40 years ago. Read the article here. Now Lennon’s soul can finally make that last round through the karmic wheel. (Btw, that’s sarcasm.)
Ain’t Superstitious
Posted in Humour, Music, tagged Humour, Jeff Beck Group, Music, superstition on 21 November 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Excellent song by the Jeff Beck Group. I highly recommend it. But on to the actual content of this post… I never thought of myself as superstitious. In fact, I’ve always commented on how silly superstition is. Apparently, though, I’ve become superstitious behind my back. On Wednesday night I had dinner plans with a friend. [...]
