goodbye radio

so, that's the radio show over for this term. don't you dare cry, you'll set me off...

ahem. anyway, we decided to play nowt but the most bottle rockety of bands, i.e. the fourteen most played artists thus far at the club. they were:

- belle and sebastian - i'm a cuckoo
- the smiths - panic
- david bowie - dj
- pulp - babies
- los campesinos - knee deep at atp
- pavement - cut your hair
- the cure - boys don't cry
- bruce springsteen - badlands
- blondie - will anything happen?
- camera obscura - swans
- weezer - el scorcho
- the go-betweens - spring rain
- the magnetic fields - when you were my baby
- pixies - gigantic

and then, to finish things off on a suitably bombastic and amazingly awesome note:

- andrew w.k. - i love music

which is, quite frankly, the best thing ever written. it goes something like this:


I want you to remember all the things that i said
I want you to remember you're not better off dead
You only have a minute to go back in the line
To bring it on home and make up your mind

I want you to remember what you came here to do
I want you to remember that im talking about you

I Love Music and I Love To feel
I love to get through, I love to get through

I Love Music and I Love To Yell

In my soul i am running getting nearer

For many years of only hope you'd never leave

You are my faith you are my friend you are my family and i am coming

So we can live forever more in total love

You're in my soul (you're in my soul)
And i am running (i am running)
Getting nearer (i am always gettin nearer)

For many years (for many years)
Of only hope (of only hope)
You'd never leave (for many years i hoped you'd never leave)

You are my faith (my faith)
You are my friend (my friend)
You are my family (my family)
And i am coming (and i am coming)

So we can live (so we can live)
For ever more (for ever more)
In total love (so we can live forever more)
In total love

I'm not about to die i'm not a settin sun i look into your eyes and see what has begun

I'm not about to die (this time we will)
(this time we will unite
Im not a setting sun (this time we will not)
(this time we will not loose you)
I look into you eyes
(we look into your)
(we look into your eyes and)
And see what has begun
(and see what)
(what has)
(and see the world is...)

In my soul
I am running
Getting nearer
(i am always getting nearer)

For many years
Of only hope
You'd never leave
(for many years i hoped you'd never leave)

You are my faith
You are my friend
You are my family
And i am coming

So we can live
For ever more
In total love

So we can be there when victory strikes again
