The windies seem to be on the long, hard road back to being not shit.

In honour of this, here some very happy music from Toots and the Maytals

You're kidding me, right? Trying to make a ballad about a sportsman/cricketer sound heartfelt and sincere is as bad as it gets for me. It's so bad watching it has made me feel angry. Sorry chaps but it was vomit inducing tosh. Kevin 'bloody Wilson without the swearing and jokes, complete and utter w8nk.

Here's something to listen to while driving your car at highspeed. Especially at night when you're hacked off about something.

I've been listening to a lot of Iron Maiden recently, and it's my opinion that they are the greatest band of all time.

I've counted 10 classic albums that they've put out, which I'm pretty sure no other band can match.

This band have had f*ck all media coverage, f*ck all songs played on the radio, and they've still managed to sell over 100 million albums.

Genius. I only got into them after hearing their latest album. 25 years after releasing their debut, I got into this band by hearing their latest recording. Now that's the sign of a good band. No band comes close to them IMO.

Ffs, the state you're in don't play any of their albums backwards, you'll end up topping yersen.

The playing backwards thing was always BS, Geoffrey. They did a tongue in cheek thing on Piece of mind, but other than that it was BS.

Phew, thank Christ for that. I just thought I'd mention it like, I'd hate to have blood on my hands tomorrow morning.

I cut my finger. No idea how. So I actually will wake up tomorrow with blood on my hands.

Not good.

Not that anyone gives a flying fcuk. Wow, forgot how gorgeous some of RDJ's electronic music sounds. This particular track is one of my favorites.

Sod it, I don't care what you upper class southerners and university types think, here's me in my younger days, enjoy...

I'm seeing Radiohead a week on Tuesday. Best band of the last 15 years IMO. Here's one of their classics, technically it's one song but it has 3 distinct parts to it. Genius.

by Steve Mon 16 Jun 2008, 22:58

Radiohead are amazing, I see them a week on sunday, can't wait. The set lists from the tour look really good so far.

Just found this and wanted to share, I think it's an incredible version. Radiohead doing 'Nobody does it better'

Max (the singer guitarist) is such a cutie. He reminds me of a sort of cross between Daniel O'Donnell and our Lara.

He doesn't much like politics or wannabes though. to judge by the lyrics ...

Following on from my last Radiohead clip, I think they have outdone themselves with this next one. Proof that they are much better live than on record:
