I have spent a not inconsiderable sum of money, possibly as much as 2 gallons of petrol, on playing this song on jukeboxes in bars, and while the version then, and the best version is Dean's, Robert Mitchum does well

Treating myself to an afternoon of Shostakovich's music. His mastery of any style he set his mind to is amazing. I give you his waltz no. 2. The equal of anything Johann Strauss composed:


https://youtu.be/qPmnn_iTQJE
If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them. - God is Love.

And more Shostakovich. His Festive Overture was composed in 1954. In three days. Three days!

Of his shorter works probably his most popular and celebrated.

A perfect jewel of joy.
If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them. - God is Love.

Felt in the need for some Tim Minchin today

Pet SHop Boys - Being Boring

Came back to this song this morning for some reason and had forgotten how very good it is. And it is very good.
If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them. - God is Love.

That there are elections on today reminds me of this Elvis Costello song - it is obviously about a previous nauseating fuckwit of a Tory Prime Minister but, in my view, the sentiments expressed apply equally to the current nauseating fuckwit of a Tory Prime Minister.

Joni Mitchell singing yesterday. Absolutely remarkable given how ill she has been:

Stunning.

So it's not usual that I would post a cover of a Kate Bush song, but there is something about this that is rather good:

Minute Taker - Running up that Hill
