:yahoo: I am very excited atm about a community project I am putting together, part of which has involved making a promotional DVD that I used Coldplay's Fix You as the track for. We're currently involved in a dialogue with Coldplay's publisher to get clearance to use the track. It is all up in the air right now but I just wanted to share it with people here, and wondered if anyone had any thoughts etc. The feedback I have had so far is that Chris Martin may be pretty okay with the idea due to all the work he does for charity . . .

Kerry Katona put me off shopping at Iceland.

:o You surprise me Mark. Just thought, would this do better in Retro? And if so, could someone move it?

4 in the Morning will make a great single. Was thinking a more dancy one would be better as it gets sunnier / warmer but, no, I think this is ideal. Hopefully it will really stand out.

er . . . Dustbin Timberat (thanks Gramz!) or The Queen of Pop-Hop? Me rather thinks Gwen.

Ooh? :rolleyes: *pays attention* This sounds amazing. Have a lot of respect for Mute due to DM, and although roughly know the history of the label and other artists in passing reference from documentaries etc, I do not know the scene musically. This will be great for me to have an aural history of Mute. I will look out for this. Thanks, once again, for posting. I find your posts interesting, informative and expansive. :heart:

You can see her comedic qualities in her vids . . . 'They Don't Know' also has a brief cameo by Paul McCartney at the end. Although I associate this song more with Kirsty McColl. i0FIl4-cC9U The Tracy Ullman track I remember most of all is 'Sunglasses' . . . ooo-ooh, to hide behind . . . :cool:

:rofl: Russ, that is pure class and so are you. I actually think Robbie would've been up for using it for real!

Don't you start <_<

Well if all you are going by is citing chart positions . . . She used to play the circuit a lot and stopped doing it after her self-confidence was knocked. When she eventually came back to it the scene had moved on and there was no place for her and so she slipped into obscurity. This is one of the reasons I don't post so much out of places like the lounge. There are some places here that if you say anything you just get trampled on with facts and figures. Are people really so insecure that they need to throw their weight around like that? And I also get a bit annoyed about the way people slam things - such as "Ruby Tuesday is an awful track". That is your opinion. Opinions are not facts. And even facts don't tell the whole story. *rant over*

Okay, so this a shameless plug for the new Depeche Mode forum request, but it is also a very well crafted piece of work from Justin Alt combining scenes from Tron with Depeche Mode's 'Suffer Well' wlzw74chGmI

I keep my NIN listening unadulterated and restricted to Pretty Hate Machine, but by the tracks posted I may be checking out this new stuff. Thanks for posting

Calling me a liar? :P She quotes it as something that devastated her personally and had an effect on her public musical longevity. And personally I like her version of Ruby Tuesday.

:heart: Oh, my sweet Mark. Always just a little bit too late to save me . . .

I do have a tendency to come off as a bit cocky when I feel abandoned and neglected :lol: Thanks tho, it was bugging me I couldn't find it, but if it doesn't exist it won't bug me.

I thought you were offering to try and find out about the track, and I was thanking you as you were the only person who offered something helpful. Why is that hard to understand? I don't understand. :wacko:

Yes that's the one. I was wondering if that extended version exists other than as a live version. Does anyone know? It has a slightly different rythym to the main album version as well as more of the sample. Why does nobody else understand what I mean??????

I actually get quite touchy about '. . . Combine Harvester' :( I have the original song that this is a parody of - 'Brand New Key', and other stuff by the artist Melanie. The original lyrics are "I've got a brand new pair of rollerskates, you've got a brand new key, I think that we should get together and try them out to see . . . " Melanie was a very sensitive songwriter / performer and this parody was one of the things that effectivley killed her career :( Seeing the old Christmas Buzzcocks was good tho :lol:

I so need that tumbleweed smiley . . . Don't care no-one answered. Watched half an hour but then fell asleep, it seemed quite sweet but obviously anything that goes near the backstage band dynamic thing is going to suffer from the comparison to the holy and wholly definitive Spinal Tap.

I like how people rushed to console when I threatened not to enter again cus hardly anyone gives me a single point :lol: . . . <_< Still, at the end of the day I do it for me, and I'm not going to chase votes. So here's mine this week. I haven't got time to do all the effects, or the layout, properly, but you get the idea . . . http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u278/snowbabyneedslove/robbieshesmadonnacover.jpg

Quick question, then let it sink . . . Has anyone seen Still Crazy and is it worth watching. I remember seeing the PR for it when it came out years ago but never bothered to see it. It's on BBC1 tonight at 11.20pm, is it worth giving my attention to 'til 1am or shall I not bother?

Love The Killers, long-standing relationship, but in my honeymoon period with The Sweet Escape. It's still Gwen :wub:

I am the only person in the the world who likes The Streets? and is it cus I is a Brummie? (Don't all shout at once)

It just kinda means you let your bile spew forth so I don't have to, and I am sated! Dustbin Timberat :rofl:

:lol: *spleen vented by proxy*
