Nur Geträumt by Blümchen. I'm not a German speaker, but I love this song (and pretty much the rest of Blümchen's albums). See rambling below:

I've seen plenty of evidence that people on the autistic spectrum often find music in languages they don't speak to be particularly calming due to not having to mentally process the lyrics. Also, there are so many great songs out there that people never discover simply because they're in another language. I find that wasteful!

Simon & Garfunkel - "Mrs Robinson"

Easily the best version in my opinion.

and even better::
"The Boxer"

Swallow, by Steve Queralt, the bass player out of Ride. Largely instrumental, a mix of post-rock, shoegaze and electronica. It’s really rather good. And he’s a lovely man as well

Mostly Glasgow-ish. Mostly.
Inspired by a delve back into classic Adam Curtis documentaries following the release of Shifty, I've found myself in a twisty maze of tunes he's frequently used.

Pizzicato Five - Baby Love Child

Pye Corner Audio - Pulse Threshold

Burial - Forgive

Suicide - Dream Baby Dream

Playing in my head, unfortunately

Barry Maguire, Eve of Destruction

60 years on, and the lyrics are still, or even more so, relevant. So tragically sad.

Show time tonight I’m heading to Brum to see Iron Maiden. I’ve avoided the setlist and anything about the tour etc. as I want the whole thing to be a complete surprise. As it’s their 50th anniversary tour I’m hoping for some really old stuff that they haven’t played in years.

The wonderful Malcom Arnold and his delightfully witty, somehow patriotic Padstow Lifeboat march, played by Grimethorpe Colliery Band. (Guess who's a trombonist)

Taking inspiration from another thread about gigs I thought I’d have another listen to an early recording of Iron Maiden featuring Dennis Wilcock on vocals and Ron Matthews on drums.

Nothing like a burbling acid baseline to get you up in the mornings!

Darn automerge......this next one is 9 hours later in the day



It's been a long stressful day so time for a sonic brain massage....



CV-313 Seconds to Forever (Echospace edit)

99.99% of you will hate this (same as above track) but the video is a 5 minute cab ride through lovely scenery in what looks like N America....
