Oh Yes, At The Moment.

Happy Belated Burns' Night! The night some friends of mine and I attempted to attend two ceilidhs (Scottish dancing events, sort of like barn dancing or contra dancing), only to be turned away like Mary and Joseph attempting to find a place to give birth to Our Saviour of The Good Night. Having failed at both, we went to the pub and sat for a while drinking, which is the other traditional Scottish activity. Ah, and I served vegan haggis, neeps and tatties (turnips and potatoes) to the soothing refrains of the Titanic soundtrack off a Youtube Celtic mix.

In other news, I've had a stressful couple of weeks being kicked out of a flat, but it's good to be back in Edinburgh. The title of this post is an English translation of the well-known 'Scottish' phrase "Och Aye The Noo," which nobody says here and which means practically nothing. :)

So in celebration of Scottish artistic heritage, here are a few of the stranger offerings of '70s Scottish bands, with a surprise Swedish ending (Damnit, it was supposed to be a surprise.)

What Redux

Some more oddities for your perusal.

Happy New Year!

Happy 2013, everyone! And to those who are triskaidekaphobic, happy pre-2014. And to those who are Swedish, of which a few more than would be expected seem to be, Gott Nytt År!

...That is, a few more than would be expected to be looking at this website... would seem to be.

Anyway, a song! By good old Sir Cliff.

Cliff Richard - Millenium Prayer


Where you goin'? Hey... wait...

Xmas

This time of year is well-known for producing musical horrors. It seems that in their quest to find the holiday spirit guaranteed to make people pile their shopping carts ever higher (sometimes causing casualties in the process), shopping centres and radio DJs will stop at nothing. Nothing. Nothiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing!

Darth Vader moment over. Here are some songs that you can put on if you really want people to leave.

Michael Jackson and Britney Spears

Just a short little post to keep this going...

Too Precious

Finally got round to posting again... and this post is dedicated to disgustingly sweet children singing disgustingly sweet children's songs.

what?

This issue: Songs that I can't even describe.
