I defy you not to be moved by this tune.  (Little Light)

On the encouragement of kris, here goes.

1. Springbok Nude Girls - Afterlifesatisfaction
It blew my mind.  A band that made people want to start bands.  This was the promise of an SA music revolution.   But it seems no-one could follow them.  Saron Gas/Seether are probably the only band who have come close.

This man has provided a soundtrack to my life.  No, don't laugh.  His live shows are truly heart-warming.  He's playing in London soon. 

Lloyd Cole is just peerless when it comes to quirky, incisive lyrics.  Here's something off his forthcoming record Anti Depressant. (And here is a link to a demo of the track that Lloyd released on his blog.)

The young idealists

I know I said I favoured peaceful resolution
But that was when we were the young idealists

The young idealists
Raging through the coffee shops and bars
Make believe the world was really ours
And still supposing we could make a difference

Then

Further to my last post, I had a moment of realisation this morning about what could possibly be the ultimate mashup.   One by U2 and Don't Look Back in Anger by Oasis.  Try it: play the chords of One and sing the words of Don't Look Back in Anger.  It's genius, I tell you.  If you enjoy the experience, do let me know.

There is some good stuff in this place.

A song. Chords attached.
