December 4, 20222 yr I ended up having seabass in solidarity! ps the video is the album version of the Enigma track that I grumbled about almost immediately after joining :kink:
December 4, 20222 yr Thoroughly enjoyed a good chunk of the music and chat that veered into pretty chaotic at times :lol: Added The Carpenters, Enigma, Inspiral Carpets and Electronic to my playlist ^_^

Didn't really care to expend the effort to fix that by the time I realised. The correct version is in the Spotify playlist at least (same for Enigma as dandy* will be pleased to know) Other songs played: The Christians - There You Go Again (opening song, second song from Colour) Jamelia - Beware Of The Dog (for the memes) Depeche Mode - Enjoy The Silence (from #2 album Violator) Inspiral Carpets - This Is How It Feels (from #2 album Life) Pet Shop Boys - Being Boring (from #2 album Behaviour) Roxette - Fading Like A Flower (Every Time You Leave) (from #2 album Joyride) Electronic - Getting Away With It (from (some versions of) #2 album Electronic) U2 - One (from #2 album Achtung Baby) Tears For Fears - Sowing The Seeds Of Love (from #2 album Tears Roll Down (Greatest Hits 82-92)) Fleetwood Mac - Songbird (RIP Christine McVie) A fun and chaotic session this week for sure ~ highlight definitely being the cats in the 'Remember The Time' video tbh. Good discoveries this week from Carpenters, The Charlatans, Enigma, Chris Rea, Erasure and Enya + loved playing 'Starman' and 'Enter Sandman' (iconically sandwiched between Pavarotti and Joseph :lol:) and 'Thorn In My Side' being the latest song that I knew quite well but never knew what it was called until now! Pet Shop Boys (again), Electronic (basically another PSB song in some ways) and Tears For Fears were good bonus discoveries as well.
December 5, 20222 yr Sounds like fun yesterday - I've started listening through the #1 album tracks on Spotify, don't think I can replicate the chaos though :lol: Highlights from the songs I know: Starman, The Only One I Know, The Show Must Go On, All Together Now and Losing My Religion from the #1s, and Enjoy The Silence, Being Boring, Getting Away With It and One from the #2s. I wasn't 100% sure you'd end on Bruce as there's quite a turnover of #1s until the next #2, happy with that - I'm not familiar with the other tracks on Human Touch so that'll be something new to me next week.
December 8, 20222 yr A Stranglers song is essential for the RIP slot after the death of Jet Black :( I'd go for one of their early songs such as Peaches or (Get A) Grip (On Yourself).
December 11, 20222 yr Author Living on the edge and just starting preparing the playlist for the week now again, #2 album list coming up in a bit :jump:
December 11, 20222 yr Author Took me a little longer than the last time I left it this late whoops, there was one greatest hits album in particular that took me a while to figure out which song to play from due to it containing so many top 2 hits and songs already played, wonder what that could be x Done now though and it's an all time low of just 38 albums covered this week - we have a near 20 minute song again this week, been a while since the last one of those! - which takes us to July 1993. Notably this is the first of these sessions which doesn't span any full calendar years. This week's #2 albums for extra last minute bonus suggestions (I'll wait until a little while into the session to sort out the bonuses - maybe during the 20 minute song :lol: - so y'all have some time to think x): 1992 The Southern Harmony and Musical Companion - The Black Crowes Live at Wembley ‘86 - Queen Change Everything - Del Amitri Angel Dust - Faith No More The One - Elton John Growing Up in Public - Jimmy Nail Laughing on Judgement Day - Thunder Tourism - Roxette III Sides to Every a story - Exteme Us - Peter Gabriel Erotica - Madonna Greatest Hits - Gloria Estefan 1993 Take That and Party - Take That Unplugged - Eric Clapton Connected - Stereo MCs So Close - Dina Carroll Dusk - The The Star - Belly Conscience - The Beloved Ten Summoner’s Tales - Sting Amazing Things - Runrig Taxi - Bryan Ferry Get a Grip - Aerosmith Bang - World Party Unplugged and Seated - Rod Stewart My sense is this is not as stacked a list as last week. But hey... there's Rod Stewart again :magic:
December 11, 20222 yr Peter Gabriel - Blood Of Eden Belly - Gepetto or Feed The Tree Beloved - Sweet Harmony Plus a Stranglers song as mentioned above.
December 11, 20222 yr I would like: Queen - Who Wants To Live Forever (Live At Wembley '86) Peter Gabriel - Blood Of Eden (Us) Stereo MCs - Connected (Connected)
December 11, 20222 yr I know what the 20 minute song is (was actually expecting it to be longer than that but maybe it's a different version on the album). That'll be interesting lol. Nominations: Title track from Connected by Stereo MCs Title track from Take That And Party (bit of a guilty pleasure :lol:) Sweet Harmony- The Beloved
December 11, 20222 yr Thought I was gonna miss it but will be able o join for a while on the train back to Copenhagen for those 2s voting for Del Amitri - Change Everything, fav song: Always the Last to Know Stereo MCs - Connected, fav song: Step it Up Dina Carroll - So Close, fav song: Don't be a stranger
December 11, 20222 yr Author I know what the 20 minute song is (was actually expecting it to be longer than that but maybe it's a different version on the album). That'll be interesting lol. I think I know what you thought it was and it's not that. It's something that's probably less interesting I'm afraid.
December 11, 20222 yr I think I know what you thought it was and it's not that. It's something that's probably less interesting I'm afraid. Ooo intriguing ;)
December 11, 20222 yr I’d also narrowly go for Step It Up ahead of Connected but happy with either. Del Amitri - Always The Last To Know Looks like Sweet Harmony’s a guaranteed play. :wub:
December 11, 20222 yr If it's what I think it is, it will be a treat for Suedehead and me. If it's what I think it is, it's certainly a treat for me :D
