Jan Paul Beahm/Darby Crash


We should be celebrating Darby Crash's 52nd birthday, but unfortunately, today is the 30th anniversary of his death.

You were a genius, and I wish I had the opportunity to meet you.

The magic of Peter Mark Sinclair Almond

I ran across this very recent live version of Marc and The Mambas "Untitled" and all my 80's angst came flooding back to me. I don't really have anything clever to say about Marc Almond, but it did make me want to share some songs with you.

Enjoy!

The magic of Terence Edward Hall

Terry Hall is a god. The Specials. Fun Boy Three. The Colourfield. Vegas. Solo. Everything. He's an amazing artist, and an amazing person, so I thought I'd post a few songs to celebrate the season!

Enjoy!

Spiritualized

I love Spiritualized. Jason Pierce has the most amazing ability to be able to take exactly what you're thinking and put it to song. I intend to post much more Jason Pierce stuff, but for now, just listen to the 2 songs I've attached.

Close your eyes, and feel them.

Enjoy!

Fix You

This might be a bit personal for a blog, but you know those times when you see a friend is hurting, and there's nothing you can do and you feel absolutely gutted? This is a song that seems to sum all those feelings up with a tiny bow.

When you try your best, but you don't succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream down on your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down on your face
And I...

Tears stream down on your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down on your face
And I...

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
