Mike Oldfield's prog-rock album is very King Crimson in influence, which had Luke Spiller of The Struts on vocals. As someone with PTSD and have a sister that's a veteran, this song speaks volumes, it was inspired by Mike's grandfather’s severe combat stress and PTSD from World War I.

Did anyone watch the Prog Rock Prom? That was very enjoyable.
Not Prog.
Not Prog.
Yes, Mike Oldfield has always been a massive influence on my music, listening/performing/writing. So adored the Tubular Bells rendition. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m002yz9g/bbc-proms-2026-tubular-bells
Dancing in my chair to this one!
I remember them doing the promo for that song where I lived at the time. The girls have certainly improved in voices over the years. Heaven 17's 'Come Live With Me' are dubious rather than batshit.Slight change of direction from my previous posts tonight, but I do love The Human League and always have, despite (or perhaps because of) their utterly batshit lyrics:
And this is positively sane compared to Mirror Man or Sound Of The Crowd
I am changing direction so I can swoon over Tim Booth's voice.
My mate this married to the drummer from Ash has a very funny selfie with Jarvis, he looks quite angry and bemused!
They had a few good songs. That one being catchy as hell.
The other famous on being the theme tune to Malcolm In The Middle.
I've definitely mentioned Half Man Half Biscuit before, probably a lot, tbh, but I don't think I've actually posted many of their songs:
Right hippies. Midnight here.
I'm off out. Toodles!
I'm off out. Toodles!
Thanks for dropping by. Hope to see you soon
Martin the vocalist is Steve Coogan's brother...which I forget then re-remember!
Thanks for your company
sleep well and see you soon.I didn't know there was a new thread, @L3moning thanks x
@childofthe70s lovely to see you back!
I was sitting in my oh van waiting for him earlier, I hardly listen to radio nowadays, but Simon Mayo does a thing about long lost albums, Dave Gilmour got mentioned, he's my most second fave after Slash, and they played this, I've never heard it before, but I love it, you so know that guitar riff
