Antidepressants (Live) - Suede

Great to hear this track from Suede getting some spins on the radio at the moment. One of their best songs ever? Could be. Not too shabby for a band in its fourth decade.

Happy New Year!

Ouch. It's always a bit of a 'mare getting back to reality after the Christmas break but the sudden cold snap that we woke up to yesterday was particularly brutal. Happily I'm carrying a 'little' extra holiday weight, so the layers of blubber stopped my vital organs from freezing solid. 

2026 sees several notable anniversaries including the passing of Black (aka Colin Vearncombe) and David Bowie, who sadly both passed away on the same day ten years ago (okay, I know Colin technically died on January 26th but the injuries he received in a car crash on January 10th effectively ended his life) and the tenth anniversary of the death of Prince in April. On a slightly lighter note this year sees the twentieth birthday of this blog in August. Plans are already being made for a huge celebration...so that'll be an Ivor Dewdney pasty and a couple of pints of cider at Ye Olde Cider Barrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr in Newton Abbot. I'm a simple soul, as you'll have noted if you've read any of this jibber jabber over the past couple of decades.
