U2 - The Sweetest Thing

I think it's the only U2 song I like.

Another song they ripped off.

What did they rip off exactly? I'm not familiar with any of the song's history, so would be interested to hear its 'parent'.

Sharon Van Etten's new album 'Are We There'. She is good.

I've been playing "Tramp" a lot recently which is also very good.

Currently am working my way through this:

Still sounds quite fresh.

Interesting! Led me to so many other versions - 13th Floor Elevators, Them, Animals, Grateful Dead.

Liked this more recent one by Bonnie Raitt -

btw Johnny, you probably already know this, but Roger McGuinn has just announced a tour. Playing near me, but ticket prices have been hiked up a bit too much.

Picked up his "Back to New York" cd for a quid from a charity shop about a year ago. Didn't realise it was a bootleg.

Good stuff!

Gordon's gone a bit quiet. :(

Yeah, Tramp is really good. More 'rocky' I suppose than the new one. More guitar.

Useful to know. Haven't watched her latest Jools appearance yet. Noticed she has a couple of London shows coming up in the next week. I ought to check out her first couple of albums some time - am definitely a fan.

Die Antwoord - not my usual cup of tea - but heard this on my daughters phone.
A fairly disturbing combo, it has to be said, but encouraging to know kids are still trying to shock their parents.
Be warned - contains a deal of swearing.
I shall have to talk to her about that....

Forgotten about those guys. That's a pretty slick new video - lots of time/money.

Only really know the song/video that got them exposure, which is still in my all time Top 20/30 videos:

Die Antwoord - Enter The Ninja (Clean, No Intro)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vcMHkvEVgVo

I prefer its simplicity, and the song is more evocative too. Dreamy, other world quality of the combination is intriguing and haunting.

But thanks for posting their new one. Enjoyed it.

One of my favourite songs by one of my favourite bands about one of my favourite film directors.

They don't appear to be toning their act down - this is their latest. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvMXVHVr72A

Vid's too psychotic, twisted, and violent for me. Wouldn't fancy bumping into some kids in the street on a Saturday night who were pumped up from watching it.

Agreed.
I shall, however, be singing Pitbullterrier constantly for the next couple of days - quite an earworm.

This one's my current earworm, very catchy - "I don't even know your number, and you don't even know my name."

Might be a good antidote to "Pitbull" if you need one. :)
