#DavidsMonthOfMusic 27 Good song for a bad mood Faith No More - A Small Victory I rarely listen to music when I'm in a mood but who can argue with the uplifting effect of this. The hups and whoops, the way the instrumental section seems to keep rising and building m.youtube.com/watch?v=i9_h...

#NowPlaying Cardiacs - Sing To God That this double album, crammed to the gills with dazzling invention and giddy idiosyncrasies was issued at the height of Britpop was the very definition of irony. The real battle of 1995 should have been between Tim Smith and your ripe but dormant subconscious

Odd This Day@oddthisday.bsky.social · 4d agoOn this day in 1647, a child was born near Edinburgh with two heads, each one with a single eye in the middle of its face, donkey ears, a tree-trunk-like body, arms sticking out all over, talons, male and female ‘secret parts’, and the legs and feet of oxen.

Would prefer if they just animate the mural on my local takeaway so it shouted random withering put downs at passers by; "Yer behaving like a peasant with free milk!"

I remember when Suddenly came out, me and my school mates had never heard of him. How can someone who sings this be called Angry? Yet we all had the G n'R Rose Tattoo cover and never made the connection RIP Gary Stephen 'Angry' Anderson - Nice boys never did and never should play rock and roll!
