I'm slightly concerned andy, you come across as an Oasis loving football fan in that Desert Island Discs!
I'm an Oasis fan. and a blur fan, and a Pulp fan. I was and i stood by it when that was hard, back then in 96. And i love football. But i'm no hooligan and i hate most people at Oasis gigs, and i hated some people at the only Pulp gig i went to as well though most people were likeable enough (Hyde Park). I'm an anomaly really.
My tongue was firmly in my cheek when I wrote that. I saw Oasis and Blur in '94 and they were both fantastic gigs. Still love certain eras of Blur, but Oasis I don't really have any time for.
Oh I love a good list..
(hmm not sure why the spaces arent going in)
Dory Previn - Lady with The Braid
Someone put this on a mixed tape for me back in 96(remember mixed tapes?) and its a good rainy day song.
Pulp - Acrylic Afternoons.
First Pulp song to give me shivers.
Big Star - 13
Makes my heart swell.
Happy Mondays - Kinky Afro
Driving to the city late at night or driving back at sunrise messed up either way
Dusty Springfield - Time After Time(jazz standard not 80's hit)
One of the songs I got married to.
Billie Holliday - Crazy They Call Me
Brought this tape to a grade 6 sleepover, was made fun of for not liking Bobbi Brown. I win.
Kate Bush - This Woman's Work
Sang this over and over to my newborn.
Mojave 3 - In Love With a View
To remind me of the Canadian winters whilst I bask in the sunshine.
Books- the complete Oscar Wilde or something brainless and fluffy to pass th time
