I was ever so slightly disappointed with Metallica
Lars can't drum like he used to. Didn't do the double bass drum bits in One very well at all.

Also they were being more up themselves than usual. Soaking up applause before it had begun etc. and getting arsey when they didn't get enough for their liking.

It was James Hetfield's birthday though which was amusing. Hearing thousands of people singing happy birthday while he was custard pied by the rest of the band and his family.

I've mentioned this one before, but
The Puppini Sisters - Wuthering Heights
Their version is quite funny, but what's funnier is the extent to which it seems to offend the die-hard Kate Bush fans who have no sense of humour.

The Byrds - Mr Tambourine Man
Easier on the ears than the original

The Who - Shakin' All Over
Nothing wrong with Johnny Kidd's original, it just doesn't quite cut the mustard after you've heard the version from The Who Live at Leeds.

EDIT: How did I forget?
Johnny Winter - Highway 61 Revisited
Look it up. You know it's the way Bob Dylan would have wanted it.

Mike Flowers - Wonderwall
This one depends on your own personal balance between sense of humour and hatred of Oasis.

I think it's about the chronological order of their discovery by me
I didn't hear the Pirates' version until a couple of years after The Who. The original is wonderfully atmospheric, but I think The Who's version is more likely to make you shake all over - they're surprisingly different given that all The Who did, ostensibly, was play it louder and a bit more in their own idiom.
(LongJohnBaldry, Wed 12 May 2010, 11:24, Reply)

I've heard that Puppini Sisters version
I like it, but I can't quite equate it with the original, it's so different.

Dommin - I Just Died in Your Arms Tonight

Nightwish - Over the hills and far away. Much more epic than the original.

Apocalyptica - A lot of the Metallica stuff they cover.

As for Milk and Alcohol, I thought it would have fitted nicely with our style, and Lee Brilleaux's vocal style was probably something I could have mimicked.

It had a very limited cinema release around February/March time
and, most frustratingly, was on at the National Media Museum in Bradford the night I was (sort of) driving past Bradford in order to take the family to see Lily Allen & Dizzee Rascal in Manchester.

Then the other Sunday I was flicking through the on-screen programme guide just before going to bed and was amazed to find that it was on.
I can't remember off hand which side it was on. But, as I'm cheap and only have pauperview rather than pay-per-view, it must have been either BBC4 or Film4 who tend to repeat stuff fairly regularly.

Now listening to Deftones
Anyone got their new album? I've heard it's pretty good.

I used to love them
went off them when White Pony came out. Not listened to them in years. I might dig out Around the Fur, and the first one later.

I liked White Pony
Was a soundtrack to my 1st year of uni. Around the Fur is better though.

around the fur was the soundtrack to my gap year
part of it anyway

also, the girl on the cover makes my trouser region feel funny

The more I listen to Opeth Watershed the more I like it
Not my usual genre but pretty epic none-the-less.*

I've been listening to Faithless and Massive Attack a lot recently.
And some Blues.

Really really enjoying it, chilling out listening to that at work while reading Transmetropolitan on my lunch break

cool!
This is probably the first new album I have bought for years, my musical tastes seem to have stopped somewhere around 2002 apart from the bands I have been following.

I presume the woman from Del Monte said "Si!"?

it would mean
getting a griddle as well, and had an almighty spending spree over the last month, newer car, bigger bed, flatscreen tv, a wardrobe full of new clobber and smellies and loads of little bits and bobs for the house.

plus I can't grow a beard, maybe a silly goatee or conquistador mostache

if you can grow a conquisatdor moustache then it is your duty to do so

I got my girlfirend really drunk before I asked, seemed to reduce the tension a little!

I snuck it up on her
I'd thought of what to say months ago, then forgot it, so rather than try and remember I just slid it into conversation. She said "of course", not really thinking I was asking for sure, so was surprised when I whipped out a ring.

has it become some sort of student anthem?
we played a gig with a student band supporting, they covered that and the crowd went mental

I think so.

I can't think of it
Maybe I've not heard it? I don't listen to the radio or watch music televisuals.
( Labia Majora You keep on talking but it makes no sense at all, Wed 12 May 2010, 11:36, Reply)

I like it
but overplaying is in danger of changing that. I like their stuff, but like most things like that I can't listen to it for very long.

also, Seth Lakeman is the pinnacle of modern folk music

Martin Stephenson
I really liked a lot of his stuff with The Daintees (particularly Gladsome, Humour & Blue)but my interest trailed off. Having recently become acquainted (through football oddly) with the writer of his official biography, I've had my interest rekindled and I'm now working through the stuff he's done since.
