Sad news of the death of Chris Rea. He was a master of putting into music what words can't. This is my favourite tune of his - imho it's often overlooked in his rep, but I think it is his best work. Haunting beautiful, brutaly honest, gets me every time. RIP Chris 💖🎹 youtu.be/__agSLne_3c?...

Honestly Blueys, I'm only watching Robin Hood Prince of Theives for the umpteenth time just to listen to the outstanding soundtrack by Michael Kamen. It certainly has absolutely nothing to do with Mr Costner & his denegration of the English accent... 🙉😳🙄 #MovieMusic

🎯 Davey is spot on. "We can have criticism of the BBC, but within that, we need to recognise how valuable an institution it is [and how] precious to our country. And that's one of the reasons why people like President Trump and Nigel Farage, want to undermine the BBC." 👏🏽~AA
