Hey @godseternaljukebox.bsky.social can you shed any light on a Nick Cave track I recorded off one of Mark's shows? It was introduced as 'Sweet little song' and was basically 'All things beautiful' with lyrics. I've never been able to find a single thing about it, and wonder if nobody else has it!

Out today, on his 50th birthday ... 50 sets of lyrics, edition of 50, from Jon Bennett @mtjunkshop.bsky.social (and Pacific Ocean Fire, Ex Comets, We Three and the Death Rattle).

Truly one of my generation's great 'lost' songwriters.

PSA: Bought new car. Forgot to change registration number in a multitude of parking apps. Went for weekend in Swansea. Fines beginning to roll in. 😤

Highly recommend doing a @stevequeralt.bsky.social playlist: I D 'The beast within' and 'The glacier national park', plus 'Sun moon town' / 'Versions' with Michael Smith, and 'Swallow'. Am I missing anything?

Best long albums? Spacemen 3 'Recurring' has to be up there.
I’d narrow it down to just Rule 1.
Has to fit on a C90, although I could cope with 50 mins on a AR100.
And frankly anything over 45 mins has to justify our time and patience, imo only The Cure’s Disintegration is good enough.
February 3, 2026 at 5:15 PM
There are only three acceptable lengths for an album:
1) 45 mins (one side of a C90)
2) Around 74 mins (CD or MiniDisc capacity)
3) 90 mins for a double (tape again)
I don't record to / burn any of these formats anymore. But still.

A chat I had for @psychmag.bsky.social ... some people say I overthink stuff myself, but actually I think about them exactly the right amount, so there...

Show just starting on untidyradio.com! Tune in! First up: Train Not Stopping by Harper Lee - a post-Sarah song as beautiful as anything released between 1987 and 1995.

"This is the last stop,
the emptiest platform
The final walk home
in a rainstorm"

Quite a few more Sarah-related tracks to follow!
Harper Lee - Train Not Stopping EP
Third single from Brighton duo and the first release since their highly acclaimed debut album "Go Back To Bed" hit the shops in February. Lead track "Train Not Stopping" combines masterfully layered…

Chris Hemsworth has just said on Graham Norton that he has seen Wedding Crashers "more than a hundred" times. I suspect the real number is no more than 16.

@soniccathedral.bsky.social Hi Nat, starting to plan my London Chapterhouse trip (already with a spare ticket due to my second born preferring a trip to Crete)... do you know yet whether it will be a normal kind of 11pm curfew?

The task my dreamworld just gave me: write a 2000 word essay, and record the audio version, on the question 'What is Psychology?', in one hour, to placate a criminal gang who were most perturbed there was no such thing on our website. Actually quite impressed with what my sleeping mind produced...

You may be aware that I love little more than turning to a fellow movie go-er and stage whispering "The name of the film!!" at the appropriate point. Has there ever been one that afforded that opportunity more than 'No Other Choice'?
