Could have gone my whole life without hearing or knowing about Jason Donavon covering Happy Together...

Prince following up his 'nothing compares to you' success with the sultry Martika here

Welsh Megaman · 24-09-2021 08:35PM

Whatever happened to Marky Mark, etc.

Welsh Megaman · 24-09-2021 08:38PM

PLAY PRINCE!!

Arthur Daley · 24-09-2021 08:39PM

Every EMF song just seems like the b side to 'Unbelievable'

Welsh Megaman · 24-09-2021 08:41PM

23 positions in a one-night stand.

Hangdogroad · 24-09-2021 08:43PM

Don't remember this, must have suppressed all memories of it.

Arthur Daley · 24-09-2021 08:44PM

Steve Wright and his posee.....never ever funny

Welsh Megaman · 24-09-2021 08:44PM

Where’s an actual Uzi 9MM when you need one?

It ended up a steaming pile of number 2

Arthur Daley · 24-09-2021 08:51PM

It's hardly starman in 1972. But what is David

Welsh Megaman · 24-09-2021 08:54PM

Fretless guitar!

Jaysus, half of that audience look like they were dug up.

ednwireland · 24-09-2021 11:32PM

Just caught the end blondie in concert. 43 years since parallel lines came out.

Trivia from the BBC4 soul programme last night during Curtis Mayfield... hus soundtrack album to the film Superfly grossed more money than the film.

Skid X · 25-09-2021 03:46PM

Midge Ure performed 'Cold Cold Heart' last night on TOTP. That song is notable for one of the few records of that era that Nile Rodgers did not produce

However, two years later Nile did produce a song also called 'Cold Cold Heart' for Wet Wet Wet. Has he ever turned down work?

That Wet Wet Wet video is like something from Limmy's show.

Ol' Donie · 26-09-2021 01:05AM

What the hell is this Global Citizen craic?

Been watching bits of it, trying not to be cross that they denied me the NFL show because of it.

It's like a telethon without the charity bit.

Fitting, I suppose, that it seems to be full of the "artists" that'll turn up for a phone call that promises exposure.

Or whatever.

Ol' Donie · 26-09-2021 01:06AM

The Vicar St yoke on RTE 1 was better

Yeah, it's a strange one. There's a message of save the planet, change the world in there but it doesn't seem to be very clear about what they intend to achieve in practical terms

SRO (the crowd who fill TV Studios with audiences) were scrambling to give away free tickets for Nile Rodgers' London gig as late as Friday.

dasdog · 26-09-2021 05:11PM

From what I caught it didn't look like "...a movement using its collective voice to end extreme poverty by 2030". Duran Duran playing in complete opulent surrounds and Jenny with the rocks who in fairness is a total pro and can still do it aged 52 - being glitzy as ever. It was odd.

Yeah, they kept showing outside shots of the top floor on a skyscraper stage yokey. I rememeber saying at the time I'm sure those euros/pounds could have been put to slightly better use if combating poverty was the goal.

Welsh Megaman · 26-09-2021 07:55PM

BBC One showed highlights earlier this afternoon of ‘Global Citizen Live’. Caught a bit of Elton John…
