Yep. There *is* “no cure” for me. Nothing else to say, really.

Minds Music Monday – Pleasantly Disturbed (Halloween Countdown)
With Halloween on Saturday, there was only one song left in the Halloween countdown to choose. The epic, the immense and majestic – Pleasantly Disturbed! Enjoy!
Revising The Top 50 – Life In A Day – Album Tracks And B Sides
I’m reckoning that I work in chronological order. Choose absolute favourite tracks from each album then once they are all collated, streamline and narrow down using certain other criteria until only 50 remain. These start the long list. My “must haves” from Life In A Day.
Minds Music Monday – Garden Of Hate (Halloween Countdown)
Another track that is the most Halloween appropriate SM track EVER. Not long to go now to the scariest Halloween of all – and my 50th birthday! ?????
I Wanna Go To Mars (Bar) – Caught (Out) In A Dream
I have tentatively started to work on revising my Top 50 list of SM songs. Probably a good thing to do before finishing my “Why I love…” posts that I started over 5 years ago. Where the fork has that time gone? Us humans have the most bizarre relationship with time, don’t you think? On…

Minds Music Monday – Murder Story (Halloween Countdown)
With Halloween fast approaching, I thought I’d share some darker themed Simple Minds tracks for MMM in the lead up to – what will be – the crappiest 50th birthday I could have ever have envisaged. First up, the fabulous Murder Story…

Five Years A (Mega) Fan
While it is that beautiful man’s birthday – it is also my fan anniversary. This year it is FIVE YEARS since I became a Simple Minds uber fan. I clean near forgot as I have had something else rather dominating my thoughts today – and it wasn’t that it’s Jim’s 60th, no. I’ve been hard…
Why I Love…Changeling
The dancefloor. Frigging hell! Did Simple Minds know how to fill it back in the day. I guess they still do to be fair. But let us rewind back to 1979. Rockfield Studios in the Welsh countryside. Five young men from Glasgow are in the studio making the followup to their debut album. An album…
We Jumped The Gun – Again – Still Not LIAD Anniversary, YET!
Yesterday I was out-anoraked. Jim had posted about it being the anniversary of Life In A Day and smuggins here felt a little bit pleased with herself that he was acknowledging the correct date of release. Well, so I had deluded myself. (And obviously he had thought so too…) The holy bible that is Dream…
