Three excellent new additions to the fledgling vinyl collection
🎶 Keep beckoning to me
From behind that closed door
The maid and the mother
And the crone that's grown old 🎶
The Pretenders- Hymn To Her
🎶 The hale city's quiet noo, It kens that he's restin'
At hame wi' his Glasgow freens, their joy and their pride.
The red will be worn again and Scotland will march again,
Noo great John Maclean has come hame tae the Clyde 🎶
A great Scottish Folk-Rock song for a great man.
Tonight At Noon - The John Maclean March
🎶 Am I asking oh for so much?
I'm not asking to be understood
Am I asking oh for so much?
I'm just looking for a brand new friend
A brand new friend 🎶
Lloyd Cole & The Commotions - Brand New Friend
🎶 I could have been someone
Well so could anyone
You took my dreams from me
When I first found you
I kept them with me babe
I put them with my own
Can't make it all alone
I've built my dreams around you 🎶
R.I.P. Shane McGowan
The Pogues & Kirsty McColl - Fairytale of New York
🎶 Watching in a trance
The crew is certain
Nothing left to chance
All is working
Trying to relax
Up in the capsule
"Send me up a drink"
Jokes Major Tom
The count goes on 🎶
Peter Schilling - Major Tom (Coming Home)
🎶 Cannon fire
Came to call
Stood us up
And watched us fall
The way we were
And now outworn
Our costumes changed
To uniforms
Black black days
Here to stay 🎶
Echo & The Bunnymen - Bombers Bay
🎶 His days are numbered he walks round and round in circles
There is no place he can ever call his own
He seems to jump at the sound of the phone
Staring out the window there's nothing he can now do
All he wanted was to remain sane
He can't remember his own name 🎶
Madness - Michael Caine
🎶 Our one source of energy
The ultimate discovery
Electric blue for me
Never more to be free
Electricity
Nuclear and HEB
Come fuels from the sea
Wasted electricity 🎶
OMD - Electricity
🎶 Young at heart
Yet not a chance
To be a child at all
They told us tales
They told us lies
Don't they know
They shouldn't have told us at all
How come I love them now?
How come I love them more?
When all I wanted to do when I was old
Was to walk out the door 🎶
The Bluebells - Young At Heart
🎶 If you want the fruit to fall
You have to give the tree a shake
If you shake the tree too hard
The bough is gonna break
And if I can't reach the top of the tree
Mary, you can blow me up there
What I wouldn't give to be
When I was Mary's prayer 🎶
Danny Wilson - Mary’s Prayer
🎶 Canon fire burning
On the hillside
You and I are side by side
Listen
Tin soldiers playing our tune 🎶
Echo & The Bunnymen - All My Life
🎶 She walks real slow
Like an animal
What am I
Supposed to do
Her bedroom talk
Cuts like a razor blade
Every test
To put me through 🎶
OMD still sound brilliant today, but still listen to Dazzle Ships and think WTF?
OMD - Love And Violence
🎶 Decorate, paint it for the union
No reason to give up on the illusion
Take confident possession of yourself
No reason to give up on the illusion 🎶
China Crisis - Arizona Sky
🎶 I play out my role
Why I've even been out walking
They tell me that it helps
But I know when I'm beaten 🎶
The Style Council- Long Hot Summer
🎶 Sorry if your heart is broken
Why's your mouth just hanging open?
Don't look so surprised
I found another guy 🎶
Kirsty MacColl - Terry
🎶 Yesterday I got so scared
I shivered like a child
Yesterday away from you
It froze me deep inside 🎶
The Cure - Inbetween Days
🎶 So you're living by numbers
And numbers you answer to
You can count all the numbers
You bet that someone's counting you 🎶
New Musik - Living By Numbers
Searching for the young soul rebels
Dexy’s Midnight Runners - There, There My Dear
🎶 Do you want me to
Follow you around
Everywhere in town
Do you want a clown 🎶
Soft Cell - What
