He survived it! lol

So my Track of the Day is definitely Living in an Island. That was so good. Well played and well sung (like the other songs, of course).

Are you the person mentioned who wrote in and requested this particular Peel Session, ArrGee?

I know this is off topic, and I'm not sure if you're interested, but today is the international memorial (or would you say: rememberance?) day for all victims of the nationalsocialism (what the Nazis called themselves) between 1933 and 1945.

Today 61 years ago the survivors of the concentration camp in Auschwitz were freed by Russian soldiers. I attended a memorial meeting in the Deutsche Bundestag, the parliament of Germany today and a 93 year old survivor of that time talked about his memories. It was very moving.

So my track of the day (to get this back on topic!) is the "Carillion" by Karl A. Hartmann, a piece for four string instruments composed in 1933. It was played in the Bundestag and I was very much moved by that. Before '45, Hartmann's music was not allowed to be played because the Nazis considered it "degenerate art".

Tango · In the Long Grass

as a history student and general human being i'm quite discusted that holocaust memorial day has been so overshadowed by mozarts birthday!

still can't get over seeing stephen fry cry though.he's so, i don't know, he's like bob, he's someone i really admire, a hero and it's horrible to see someone like that hurt.

so track of the day is, hmm, U2-one

Slim · I Don't Like Mondays

On that note

Sarah McLachalan- Surfacing

Tango · In the Long Grass

Hold on to your seats kids.

Tango · In the Long Grass

well i've been listening and watching videos from www.hughlaurie.net all day so possibly 'be nice:good ass mother liker', then again perhaps underthe weather-kt tunstall cos i'm ill

Slim · I Don't Like Mondays

Thanks Tango mate- for the introduction to KT Tunstall, Just checked her out on line and discovered to my delight one hot chicklet. Zipping off to Boarders, mission to pick up a few of her albums.

Any other sizzling artists you can share?

Tango · In the Long Grass

hmm lets see.if you like her you might like kate rusby tho she is quite overly folky at times.most of the newish or rare bands that i like are a bit rocky-fall out boy,jimmy eat world,taking back sunday,simple plan,and the more indie bands like, the kooks, clor, the ordinary boys (hints of Madness here).

right track of the day

be nice-fry and laurie

honest mistake-the bravery

kidneybean · House on Fire

Vanessa Carlton - A Thousand Miles

And what about The Ordinary Boys? I've heard nothing more than their single........Is the album worth a listen then Tango? I found all the participants on the latest BB offering really objectionable with the exception of their lead singer. Having said that, the fact he was on BB at all is a bit odd...........

Tango · In the Long Grass

They are actually a really good band, and all their stuff is very good.I was suprised to see him on big brother aswell.very bizarre.

if anyone wants any amusement I would recommend the video section at www.hughlaurie.net

theres some excellent clips from a bit of fry and laurie on there(don't just click tho, right click and 'save target as')

and with that in mind hugh laurie-protest song (this can be found in the excellent parkinson interview)

Jules · The biggest Geldof fan in the world, bar none!

Banana Republic. No particular reason other than I was playing it the car tonight driving home and it just hit the right note. Always great to hear.

Break out the Mahalia effing Jackson!

Now, back to white boys for just a sec.... I was thinking about Stephen Stills the other day, in that whatever happened to/wasn't he fu*king underrated kind of way...and I decided to pull out the old vinyl because I needed to see if it really did hold up... Well, some of it doesn't but....some of it still leaves me speechless.

Stephen Stills (the self-titled album, (c) 1970), side 2, track 3 - "Black Queen" Five minutes and twenty eight seconds of a man and his acoustic guitar/singing/rock/blues bliss. To quote from the album's back cover "Was recorded live and the performance is courtesy of Jose Cuervo Gold Label Tequila."

That one track makes my all teenage years worthwhile.

Right, Geldof will get to hear of this treachery. In his opinion, The Style Council is excretable. And you appear to disagree! Off to Geldof Hell with you!!!! (and it ain't a nice place).

My track of the day, as a Geldof loyalist, is Boomtown Rats Live at Hammersmith 1978 - a 70 minute MP3 track ripped from the DVD. Their finest hour! (and ten minutes).

Remember Geldof is God. No more blasphemy.

Jules · The biggest Geldof fan in the world, bar none!

Was Looking After No 1 on TOTP2, was their first appearance? I really want to see that again

Maybe another letter to the BBC is in order

I wonder what the date was that it was on? September 1997?

No 1 ought to be my track of the day, just remembering the day I first heard of Bob

Tango · In the Long Grass

yeah it was on uktv G2, indifference was on last week as well

hmm today it's taking back sunday-timberwolves at new jersey

MMbullybuddyGP · Drag Me Down

Journey - Faithfully. I think this is a very pretty sounding song, especially toward the end when Perry is doing more 'woah'-ing and less word-ing. While the overall message is kinda sweet, the circus analogy is wretched ("Circus life/under the big top world/we all need the clowns/to make us smile"...LAME).

Plus, it's a song Robert Downey Jr. allegedly has/had on his ipod - and I like RDJ a lot.

Tango · In the Long Grass

the jam-thats entertainment.cos i'm effing bored i tell you BORED out of my tiny little mind.the only thing on the winter olympics is curling, which is sadly the only thing we have succeeded in recently!top gear winter olympics was far better

Well as all Mondays are the same for me right now I don't Like Mondays - again. Trouble is I don't like Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays or Fridays either and this song doesn't cover that.

Tango · In the Long Grass

MAYBE 'ECHO BEACH' would be more suited to you at the mo-'why do we have to spend so much time at work, my job is very boring i'm an office clerk, the only thing that helps me pass the time away, is knowing i'll be back at echo beach someday'

There was a song contest in our school today and we got the first prize: a cake.

Go 12. B

so today's track is the song which helpped us to win:

Ferenc Demjén: De nehéz az iskola táska (How heavy is the school bag) Ironic isn't it?

hihi, don't take all your books with you and your school bag won't be so heavy...

and don't forget to salute to 12.C oh yeah

Not sure the film is that good, but a great choice of song (certainly the best track on Hardcore, which in itself is a great album). Considering how young you are, I'm pleasantly surprised you appreciate it. It's more for the middle aged among us!
