I have flown his flag many times before, to muted appreciation.
But was delighted to see someone had posted this clip from Seven Worlds Collide, which shows my hero Neil Finn with (hopefully) other people's heroes.

Watch it just for the roll call at the beginning. Not bad imo. No death metal stars though.

I'm on a Neil Finn trip.
I won't apologise for it. The man is a masterful singer/ songwriter/ musician/ performer. And probably lots more!

I'd heard of this version of Stuff & Nonsense (cynic/ romantic that I am, my favourite love song of all time) but never heard it. To find this is delicious. If you like it enough to watch it through you'll like it twice as much.

"And you know that I love you, here and now not forever, I can give you the present, I don't know bout the future, that's all stuff and nonsense"

Totally cool Griff.

I've been rediscovering a few old favourites.

Music with stills again, sorry.
Manic Street Preachers Roses in the Hospital

I chose this version over the others because it's the album version. In the chart version (i.e. the video) they replaced "We don't want your fucking love" with a repeat of "Roses in the hospital". Still sounds good - but for me it was the former line that blew me away. I was 18? 19? and I did want love - from anyone, anywhere - I craved acceptance and was desperate to find my peer group. To hear that line sung so aggressively in a song about mental illness/ self harm was a revelation.

Lyrics underneath if you're interested - the intonation can be confusing.

Roses in the hospital
Try to pull my fingernails out
Roses in the hospital
I want to cling to something soft
Roses in the hospital
Progressing like a constant war
Roses in the hospital
There's no one to feel ashamed for

All we wanted was a home
Now we are so strung out we wanna own
Like a leaf in the autumn breeze
Like a flood in January
We don't want your fucking love

Roses in the hospital
Stub cigarettes out on my arm
Roses in the hospital
Want to feel something of value
Roses in the hospital
Nothing really makes me happy
Roses in the hospital
Heroin is just too trendy

All we wanted was a home
Now we are so strung out we wanna own
Like a leaf in the autumn breeze
Like a flood in January
We don't want your fucking love

Roses in the hospital
This century achieved so much
Roses in the hospital
To make a voice no voice at all
Roses in the hospital
Flowers cannot express the loss
Roses in the hospital
Torn reflections of burnt out trash
Of burnt out trash

Forever ever delayed
Forever ever delayed
Forever
Forever

Forever ever delayed
(Independence is a game)
Forever ever delayed
(Credibility, I'm yawning)
Forever
Forever
(Rudi Rudi Rudi Rudi Rudi Rudi Rudi Rudi gonna fail)

Forever ever delayed
Forever delayed
Forever
Forever

Forever delayed
(The west scratches onto my skin)
Forever delayed
(Contagious like a suntan)
We never felt any sun, any sun
Rudi Rudi Rudi gonna fail
