  • Song of the week/month/year

    Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt (origonally Trent Reznor, NIN)

    I hurt myself today
    To see if I still feel
    I focus on the pain
    The only thing that's real
    The needle tears a hole
    The old familiar sting
    Try to kill it all away
    But I remember everything

    What have I become?
    My sweetest friend
    Everyone I know
    Goes away in the end
    You could have it all
    My empire of dirt
    I will let you down
    I will make you hurt

    I wear this crown of shit
    Upon my liar's chair
    Full of broken thoughts
    I cannot repair
    Beneath the stains of time
    The feeling disappears
    You are someone else
    I am still right here

    What have I become?
    My sweetest friend
    Everyone I know
    Goes away in the end
    You could have it all
    My empire of dirt
    I will let you down
    I will make you hurt
    If I could start again
    A million miles away
    I would keep myself
    I would find a way

  • Song of the month

    Well I did promise to keep tis thing upadted and song of the week turned into song of the month, now it seems its more a bi-annual thing !

    Well onto the song. I`ve been listening to a lot of brit-pop stuff recently and Shine 3 (I think) had some of the first classics of the period, with Angel interceptor by ash, Common People by Pulp, End of a century by Blur and Alrigh by Supergrass. All those great tracks and the one that stood out for me was What Do I Do Now? by Sleeper. Louise Werner [large pause] I used to love her, she was my poster girl with the amazing breathy vocals and some plain dirty vocals about one night stands, she was also well known for shagging two of her fellow bandmates!

    I remember going to see Sleeper for my 19th(ish) birthday and Louise Werner hand the mic stand between her legs the whole gig, rubbing herself up and down, all the guys were drooling, as well as some of the women.

    Well enough of the walk down memory lane, it makes me feel ancient. The video for What Do I Do Now? is here - http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=SSe3dV...

    and here are those lyrics:

    Sleeper - What Do I Do Now?

    Quickly she came dressed up for fame
    Riding her perfume downstairs
    Make up like glue she danced round the room
    To the sound of her corduroy flares
    Lets go to town taxis all round
    We could stop for a couple of beers
    He looks at it all stifles a yawn
    She tries not to look like she cares

    What do I do now are we going under
    What did I do wrong I though we had it sorted
    Out the other day maybe Im just stupid
    Cant we try again
    No one told me it was raining

    Cant face a club they walk to a nearby pub
    Watch a couple of bands
    Draining the glass they walk home at last
    Reaching for each others hands

    Nothing is said he goes to bed
    Dreaming of her on his own
    She stays up all week watching him sleep
    Scared that shell wake up alone

    Oh Ill miss you every day of your life
    Oh youll feel it too youre not that strong
    You know Im on to you

    Oh Ill miss you every day of your life
    And maybe when youre dead
    Ill get some rest from holding onto you

    What do I do now then are we going under
    What did I do wrong I thought we had it sorted
    Is there someone else or am I too familiar
    Was it when I said I wanted to have children
    Tore up all your photos didnt feel too clever
    Spent the whole of sunday sticking you together
    Now Id like to call you but I feel too awkward
    Some things need explaining
    No one told me it was raining

  • Song of the week/month/year

    Whats this I hear you say, another song of the week/month/year following on so quickly from the Nick Cave epic.

    This week/month/year song is again by those miserable bastards, Arab Strap. For some reason I`m addicted to Arab Strap and Malchom Middleton(precussionist with Arab Strap) songs.

    This one actually has a youtube video at this adress - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwvqU... (I minght add it to my videos on this site) The video has Aiden from the band in it and is quite good for an arab strap song :D

    Here are the song lyrics:

    Arab Strap - The Shy Retirer

    Another bloated disco, another sniff of romance i'll forget
    We promised to ourselves before we came out we'd do something we regret
    These people are your friends
    This cunted circus never ends
    I won't remember anything you say

    I lost my social skills a while ago but no i feel them coming back
    My eyes were rolling when we met and now they are preparing for attack
    I want to fall in love tonight and form the perfect unbreakable bond
    You can be my teenage jenny agutter, swimming naked in a pond
    You know i'm always moanin'
    But you jumpstart my seratonin
    But how d'you know you've ever really loved?

    But when i feel like this, i know it doesn't matter
    When i eat when i'm not hungy i'm sure i feel my face get fatter
    Then i thin out every weekend and i think that she might want me
    But i always slip off my own 'cause...

    I let those feelings haunt me, they control me, but tonight i'm letting go
    You're more then just a photo album, you're more than what some people let you know
    And if we ever make it home, i'll tell you all the things that shaped me thus;
    Something forged in a phonebox but lost in a restaurant we've got so much to discuss
    Here, have you tried the blue ones?
    I hear he's got some new ones
    Sleep is not an option tonight

    Look at us just stand and stare
    Look at them just pose and pout
    And we'll all be standing here
    Until the pigs chuck us out
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Hope you all enjoy it as much as I do, its got a great beat to it and really pulls you in.

    Hi, did hear your news - sounds all very exciting stuff. When your looking for course testers - let me know :) Exciting company to be involved with I thinks...

    Not sure what to make of the Murrayshall situation. You'll know better than me but I feel drainage is an issue drastically needing addressed. I know it boils down to soil types but Drumoig's greens yesterday were amazing - they've had the same rain!

    Hopefully the new person will get the funds and the staff to do a decent job. I don't want to leave but I want a quality course for the money I'm paying.

    You sure it was near Bonar Bridge? There isn`t any munros near there, just mad Englishmen trying to make giant safari parks with wolves, bears etc, etc.

    Like usual I will look to see where the weather is best and decide then, where is best. Obviously if Dylan is going we need to find something quite straight forward, if he is not going I fancy doing something a bit more exciting.

    That's great that you are off. It will be great if Dylan is going too.
    I was up the munros adjacent to Bonar Bridge with Grant on Saturday, the 2nd top we got good views. Misty on the 1st.
    Look fwd. to your choice of routes.

    I won`t find out until Monday if I`m working or not, I will tell you as soon as possible.

    The rain cancelled the open last Thursday as well, so all the work we did was for nothing.

    You were right and I was wrong - it did rain a lot. At least ur tatties got some water - and the grass - oh no! more work.
    Did u get someone to cover next saturday? If u haven't my bro will be happy cos he wants to pop in on way home from England. I'd rather be walking with you tho. :-)
