Iconic...brilliant I seem to remember she was using something from her past to portrait the emotion of the song. Some interview or something where she shared it.

Seagull 299 Posted July 23 Author Report Share Posted July 23 One of the most heartfelt songs ever, Sinead singing about the babies she lost due to miscarriage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dylan is not the musician of Prince, he is a lyricist a poet, who can write a hook... I think Stiffy is alluding to Dylan having an inferior back catalogue which is wrong...Dylan songs are covered more than anyone (probably)...I know Stiffy hates Dylan though...think Noel is a better song writer lol Dylan I’ve never really got it but Prince on the other hand amazing what a guitarist in fact I think he can play most instruments if you haven’t heard this it’s worth a listen just a shame he’s gone.

Seagull 299 Posted July 23 Author Report Share Posted July 23 Can't believe we have missed a man with one of the greatest songs in history and another which was Tupacs favourite song. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bosun11 537 Posted July 23 Report Share Posted July 23 Grew up in a world of 'ollers', bull terriers, clobber and The Jam (who I never seen as a Mod band) The Clash and The Damned. Was given a copy of the album Close To The Edge, by Yes, aged about 14, and it started a love of prog, Floyd, Genesis, Rush and Marillion. Through those came rock and Van Halen, Sabbath and everything else heavy. Then came the funk, Ohio Players, Parliament, Funkadelic etc I love so much music. To me music is a place, a feeling, a vibe. So everything can work. Right now, it's Sleaford Mods, The Viagra Boys and Amil & The Sniffers. But that can mix with my love of Nick Drake, Kate Bush and even Harry Styles..! My favorite track of all time is Geno, by Dexys Midnight Runners... Edited to add... There is a Scouse band called Red Rum Club that are fecking brilliant. Give them a listen, you heard it here first Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Seagull 299 Posted July 23 Author Report Share Posted July 23 The song that reminds me most about hunting is this, my uncles mate used to love Eurythmics and always played this song when we were lamping, not exactly throwing the dogs out of the motor music!

I did miss out electronic music in that list, and I am a big fan. Here's a couple of pics of the Mrs with some electronic friends... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

George Clinton’s Maggot Brain oozes class I loved Parliament some great bands you mentioned there, I remember having Tor mato by Yes and as you probably know we’ve got a lot to thank David Gilmour for regarding Kate Bush. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
