So just sorting out some songs, then I stumbled across McAlmont & Butler's "Yes" from 1995. Bloody hell, brings back memories.

Tremenedous song. The most recent one for me was Istanbul, They might be giants. Can't remember where I heard it though but it was in the last couple of weeks.

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

If I could remember I would exclaim!

I've been listening to a lot of things from the 70s recently and just singalong not really thinking that I haven't heard it in yonks.

Heard this in a lift last week and found myself Shazaming it.

Must have looked a bit odd to the other people as I wave my phone to the speaker.

If you like strings in your songs you'll love this.

Brought out a few golden oldies at a gig last week that we used to play all the time.

Human leagues don't you want me, Soft cell's Tainted Love - the 12" version and the Communards Don't leave me this way. Top tune that one.

Need to bring a few others out of mothballs

Wah! - I got my balls felt over the top of my jeans, for the first time as a 13 year old to that song! Happy memories.

I've heard two this week from the eighties I had forgot about, they are brilliant!

I would call you up every Saturday night

And we both stayed out 'til the morning light

And we sang, "Here we go again"

And though time goes by

I will always be

In a club with you

In 1973

Singing "Here we go again"

Simone

Wish I was sober

So I could see clearly now

The rain has gone
