I loathe the Daily Mail, but in the office, Graeme and I have been loving their Eighties album giveaway over the past fortnight. Today was our favourite, Haircut 100's Pelican West, but we also liked the Human League's Dare and that one by Simple Minds that's got Sanctify Yourself on it, as we thought those ones had aged quite well. However, No Parlez by Paul Young got the Graeme thumbs-down, as it...

To a Scots crowd, Glasvegas may be victims of the Irvine Welsh effect. Feted as sharp-tongued poets of the gutter whose mastery of dialect and intonation evokes a life experience that most will be unfamiliar with, they sound pretty normal north of the border.

OK, I admit it - I don’t get out much anymore. Three kids under seven at home will do that to a couple. But sometimes you just need to get out of the house. I am a long time karaoke junkie. I’ve been haunting the best (and worst) karaoke bars in the Bay Area for 12 [...]

We need simple slogans for simple minds: The rich hate and fear the poor. The right already believes rich Democrats hate them, they just need to be convinced further that rich Republicans hate them too. (Hope works with some people, but fear works with more.) When people finally understand it's the rich milking the poor, they might wise up enough to start protecting thenselves. But you have to wor...

American Teen Poster Remember when you first saw The Breakfast Club ? When troublemaking punk John Bender (Judd Nelson) raised his freeze-framed fist in victory and Simple Minds moaned “Don’t You Forget About Me,” who among us did not cheer? (If you don’t know what we’re talking about, then go get your Netflix on right away. Come back once you’ve seen it. Frankly, we can’t even look at you right now.)...
