#AlphabetChallenge #WeekQforQuiet Haven't taken part for a while but thought this met the brief

#ArtistFave15 No. 1 The Undertones, Get Over You, 1979 Q: Why have you been a fan of The Undertones for over 45 years? A: Watch this ... www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_Ax...

#ArtistFave15 Again, the order of the top two was a dilemma. This may come as a shock but No.2 The Undertones, Teenage Kicks, 1979 Didn't like this the very first time I heard it because Feargal's voice was so different, and then I saw the light! (1/2) www.youtube.com/watch?v=PinC...

#ArtistFave15 No.3 The Undertones, Male Model, 1979 NOT a song about chocolate and (or) girls, but another really witty, singalong tune. (2m 39s and half of that is the OGWT opening sequence 🤣) www.youtube.com/watch?v=EK2M...

#ArtistFave15 Tracks 3 & 4 tie so I had to throw a coin to decide the order ... No.4 The Undertones, Mars Bar, 1979 Yes, it was the B side to an A side lower down the list but it still makes me laugh and it's another crowd pleaser live. www.youtube.com/watch?v=C5el...

#ArtistFave15 No.5 The Undertones, Wednesday Week, 1980 Wonderfully wistful. @mickeyundertone.bsky.social never did spill the beans as to why they had to abandon it after 3 attempts at Hangar 34 last November. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DGv...

#ArtistFave15 No.6 The Undertones, You've Got My Number (Why Don't You Use It?), 1979 Unlike some of their other tracks, I loved this one from the very first second I heard it. Another one that's brilliant live. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVVY...

#ArtistFave15 No.7 The Undertones, Jimmy Jimmy, 1979 Wasn't too sure about this when I first heard it on vinyl. Sounded a bit 'tame'. Then I saw TU play it live at The Royal Court, Liverpool 🔥 www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRYp...

#ArtistFave15 No.9 The Undertones, Emergency Cases, 1978 1m 58s of pure energy. Your earworm for the day. www.youtube.com/watch?v=STnR...

#ArtistFave15 No.9 The Undertones, Julie Ocean, 1981 Such a lovely tune. Maybe should have been higher in the list? www.youtube.com/watch?v=GO41...

#ArtistFave15 No.10 The Undertones, Hard Luck, 1980 Last minute swerve. Was going to post Hypnotised but decided on this 70's glam rock inspired track instead from the same LP. Also, first time I've posted the current line up live. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zl5o...

#ArtistFave15 No.11 The Undertones, My Perfect Cousin, 1980 Like an updated David Watts. But better. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pgqa...

#ArtistFave15 No.12 The Undertones, True Confessions, 1979 Feargal in his parka! www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vil...

#ArtistFave15 No.13 The Undertones, Jump Boys, 1979 www.youtube.com/watch?v=0gJ7...

#ArtistFave15 No.14 The Undertones, It's Going To Happen, 1981 www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQta...

#ArtistFave15 No.15 The Undertones, Love Parade, 1983 Love the 1960's vibe of this song. And it's great live (I'll probably be saying that a lot). www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0-9...

Great @ledbydonkeys.org event hosted by @zoesqwilliams.bsky.social . Fascinating, thought-provoking, and entertaining. 👏👏

#ArtistFaveLP #MusicChallenge Heaven Up Here, Echo and the Bunnymen, 1981 No 1 "Over the Wall" That time The Bunnies played Sefton Park. "It Was A Pleasure" to be there! www.youtube.com/watch?v=6scs...

#ArtistFaveLP #MusicChallenge Heaven Up Here, Echo and the Bunnymen, 1981 No 2 "Heaven Up Here" Another clip from the St George's Hall gig that rounded off "A Crystal Day" www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2VC...

#ArtistFaveLP #MusicChallenge Heaven Up Here, Echo and the Bunnymen, 1981 No 3 "Zimbo" aka "All my colours" This live version with the the Drummers of Burundi is probably my favourite. www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cCs...

#ArtistFaveLP #MusicChallenge Heaven Up Here, Echo & The Bunnymen, 1981 No. 9 "No Dark Things", and I found the video from St George's Hall. I was there! www.youtube.com/watch?v=RgId...

Angela Rayner resigns after accidentally paying the wrong amount of stamp duty. Farage deliberately avoids stamp duty by putting his constituency home in his partner's name. Also avoids full tax on his GBNews earnings... www.theguardian.com/politics/202... Result: nothing to see here, move on...

Future Yard tonight. Epic! (Yes, the quality is awful but I was dancing at the same time.)

Less than 24 hours until The Sugarhill Gang + Furious Five play Future Yard ...

Fabulous! Well done Lionesses!

Appreciate that not everyone here is an LFC supporter, but how emotional was that presentation! ❤️

Just watched Synth Britannia at the BBC @profpop.bsky.social @ellibin.bsky.social - #COTR heaven, highly recommend if you haven't seen it! - & Jon said he had an argument with classmate Steve James (now Alex of Blur) as Steve/Alex claimed David Sylvian was better than Bowie 🤔 Thoughts?

www.theguardian.com/music/2025/m... Such sad news

Meanwhile, in rural Wales www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

#AlphabetChallenge #WeekGforGold Home produced honey 🐝😋

Well that sounded like a proper derby to say farewell to Goodison!

Just started to catch up with the second series of 'We Are Lady Parts'. Promises to be as good as the first 😊

I have a big ask. My 9yo son is autistic and he’s been raising a betta fish he named Kevin. Yesterday He asked if he could “share a photo of Kevin with the whole world“. I don’t know if this will work, but a dad’s gotta try. Like and share if that’s your thing. Kevin says hi! 🐟👋

Very meaningful in the year I turned 60. After a birthday treat to Berlin in April involving a very, very drunken night in an Irish Bar, I ended up in Gretna Green in September ... that'll teach me! All the best for 2025 to you and yours, xx

Oh #SCD! Fabulous final, fabulous winners 👏👏

Repost with a cool song that's under two minutes The Undertones "Male Model" www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mRL...

Tor/ #BillyNomates was so good tonight at #FutureYard . The bassist & drummer have added depth to her sound & the banter works. Bring on the new album!

Hi @urbankisses.bsky.social & Karen (can't find her on Bluesky now 🤔) Saw the 'heart' and thought of you!

I do have a soft spot for Stubbs www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

#SaySheShe were fabulous tonight at Content. Can't beat a bit of operatic funk.

#SCD24 Pet Shop Boys singing "All the young dudes". 👏👏

OH is on his phone scrolling through websites looking for earbuds. Simultaneously, my Instagram feed is now full of earbuds' ads 🤔
