Next week's themes... 6:20pm on 11 Oct 2009 Monday
Got to be Goodbye To Love by The Carpenters

Tuesday

I'll pass on this one

Wednesday
Surprised nobody's picked up on Reconnez Cherie by Wreckless Eric

Thursday
1990, Sheffield City Hall, Big Country
Had my ticket - which were hard to come by - but gave it away to a friends' sister who couldn't get one. She had never seen them live and really wanted to go. Like a fool I let her - absolutely gutted when they all came back raving about how great the gig was.
One Great Thing would be apppropriate - it was one great thing I missed but was one great thing letting someone experience the band
Next week's themes... 01:52am on 06 Oct 2009 "I swore I would love you till the end of time,
Now I'm praying for the end of time,
It's all that I can do,
So I can end my time with you"

Praying For The End Of Time - Meatlosf

....or is that me still being bitter & Twisted
LOL
Next Week's themes... 11:43am on 24 Aug 2009 A quick one for Tuesday

Age - X Ray Spex.

...if you don't play it on Specs night then play it on Thursday especially for Mrs Bob who is suffering from a mid life crisis
Next week's themes... 09:37am on 17 Aug 2009 Pet Clark gave some good advice - Don't Sleep In The Subway. Although the reasoning now is probably slightly different than when she originally sang it

Loads of requests for The River by Mr Springsteen - not surprising since it's an absolute classic. I'll buck the trend by asking for The River by King Trigger. A catchy little number from the early 80's & about the only song I can think of that actually mentions a dug-out canoe.

If you do decide to play Wink Martindale's Deck of Cards at least have the decency to provide a Public Service Announcement so we can switch off for a couple of minutes.
Next week's themes... 12:04pm on 22 Jul 2009 ...or even My Special Child - Sinead O'Connor
Next week's themes... 11:59am on 22 Jul 2009 how about

Son Of My Father - Chicory Tip
Father And Son - Cat Stevens

....or songs about the turbulence of fatherhood, rightly or wrongly
Tangled Up Puppet - Harry Chapin
Cats In The Cradle - Harry Chapin
Next week's themes... 1:26pm on 14 Jul 2009 I'm really surprissed that none of you wits out there picked up on 2 classic "name checks"

Prince Charming - Adam & The Ants (Rita Coolidge is nothing too be scared of)
Chain Reaction - Diana Ross (I'm on a journey for the inspiration, To Eddie Wearing there ain't no salvation)
Next week's themes... 1:07pm on 14 Jul 2009 I second (or is that third) JIMMY NAIL but I'd prefer Love Don't Live Here Anymore - a wonderfully powerful voice
Next Week's themes... 10:47am on 02 Jul 2009 Simply has to be DONT YOU WANT ME by the Human League
and dedicate it to my Mrs who walked away at the weekend.

I know she'll be listening

Best of luck Sue, I still Love you

Bob
Saturday night anthems... 10:39am on 02 Jul 2009 Plenty of "events" from the sixties that could lead to music from almost any era

for example - the space race / moon landing would give you Telstar, Starman, Man In The Moon, Spaceman etc

#12 - You've got to give Bryan credit for trying - after all he's "no superman" :-D
