After hearing Sound Of the Crowd on @6music.bsky.social the other day it inspired me to pull this out 💗. Blimey there are some fantastic songs on here! And are the last 3 songs one of the best 3 song finishes to an album of all time?! Off the top of my head only Technique by New Order just shades it

Bristol has been carved up between FKA Twigs (Cheltenham) and Tears For Fears (Bath) here. It's a Bristolian's nightmare. Massive Attack barely visible. I can't support this vision of the future.

It’s National Poetry Day. The greatest poem in the English language.

Time to terminate Thomas Tuchel: 1) “If Harry doesn't slip we win the game, we were clearly the better team until that moment.” “If we had won, we would have have deserved it…” 2) He is tactically naive. 3) He was never good enough to be England manager, and never will be. 4) Eddie Howe fits well.

Bizarre things that happened in your assembly: each Friday a different teacher spoke on their topic of choice. One day an ancient English teacher overran by HALF AN HOUR, eating almost the whole first lesson. But I was late that day, so I was on my own thinking there'd been some sort of apocalypse.

Good on Paul Weller for doing this. Trying to help rebuild healthcare for innocent people and - judging by social media comments - flushing out more thickos from his audience. Win-win. ✊🏽 🇵🇸

Interesting interview with Echo and the Bunnymen in Mojo. In particular, fair play to Mac the mouth going into the Simple Minds dressing room recently to apologise about slagging them, though 'you did go shit in the 80s'. Jim 'we did'. 'Were you chasing U2?' 'No, the bread'.

Haven't played this in years, wonderful! For my money the versions of Opportunities & Paninaro are even better than the originals, and the Love Comes Quickly version is as if New Order covered it - a good thing clearly!

Just offered my train seat to an elderly lady because of train overcrowding (the right thing to do, feel virtuous, looked good in front of other passengers) but she also turned it down (my preferred outcome), what a double stab of dopamine.

I'm surprised not to see this mentioned in #5DebutAlbumsFinal this week. People bang on about how influential the Velvet Underground etc were but Handel was absolutely rinsing it in 1741.

Good ticket to see Simple Minds and meet them? Only £344 😂. Thanks, we'll pass. When we met Roddy Frame in 1990 backstage he signed my ticket and charged me the disgraceful fee of £0.

We saw Bitter Christmas last night at the cinema, really good and the first-half a treat. Barbara Lennie is superb, never heard of her!, and the film slightly faded when we saw less of her second half. Well worth seeing though, and big screen obviously for those colours 💗. #FilmSky
