That bloke from wigan, RYM, the Internet, etc.
Was listening to Movietone's debut for the first time in ages, as background music to a book (Damon Galgut's The Promise). Couldn't do it, had to stop reading. How beautiful is this?

Mojo's top albums of 2025 are selected by someone who just woke up from a 30 year coma. Pulp and Suede at 1 and 2.

Surely the opposite would be a more newsworthy headline?

Just double checking, but this is the greatest thrash track ever, right?

I could've sworn that this lot now in charge said they were going to address the main concerns about corrupt privatised utilities, the cost of living crisis and the dearth of affordable housing. I don't remember this sickening demonisation of immigrants and refugees being a thing. Fuck all of them.

Nothing like the weird underwhelming feeling of a successful software deployment. Last attempt rolled back after 4 hours of hacking. This one, 30 mins plain sailing. Feel almost cheated.

Can't stop listening to Michael Nyman's An Eye For Optical Theory. I think I'm finally old and middle class

R.I.P. Dave Ball. This track in particular is synthpop perfection, and from such an unusual perspective.

Bricking it now. Months of work about to go live for the first time. What a way to spend a Friday night.

I know the Virgin Prunes appeared on this show, with Binti, but it's kind of incredible this got airtime. Princess Tinymeat - A Bun on the Oven

I keep picking up Tom Paxton records really cheap, and it seems the farther from his heyday, the better the record. Deeply unfashionable stuff, but I don't care.

Is it ok that I've never found Taskmaster funny? I feel alone.

Passenger 57 on ITV4 right now. One of the greatest cheesy airplane hijack films of all-time.

Watching Casablanca again on BBC2 right now. Never ever get bored of this film, love how Claude Rains seems to be in an entirely different film.

Bloody hell, Sabrina has just been on, too. Boys boys boys Sabrina. She even sang just those words only.
Last night of my holiday in Italy, and Eiffel 65 are live on TV! It's like discovering Whigfield still exists.

The weird thing about social media is everyone in the world having an opinion at exactly the same time about something I didn't know or care about.

All this fuss about Torvill and Dean's last performance of Bolero takes me right back to 84. I was only 8 or 9, but I remember this moment of national unity and excitement. The first real such moment, the first time I recall a massive occasion and not giving a shit. And 41 years on, I still don't.
