Sometimes the right joining of film with music can move touch for a life time.

Too many to mention, but as my Dad used to have that Bread album, it has to be this song, but I prefer the reggae version. Used in devastating effect on This Is England 88

I think a lot of my music tastes are a bit more newer than folks here…but I know some will know this.

There are quite a few songs that remind of my partner - like Elvis Costello’s Every Day I Write the Book or Cardigans ‘Sick and Tired’ but something my first love and my partner share is this song, a cover of the Small Faces ‘Autumn Stone’ - both versions are great but a I prefer the Gene version, Gene meant a lot to me as a band especially that first album.

Tomorrow changes
Fields of green today
Yesterday is dead, but not my memory
We were strangers
And then you came to stay
The sweetest spring old morning sings to me
So now I’ve found a living sound
That moves, that breathes, and then makes love to me

I am a MAHOOSIVE Fleetwood Mac fan, ever since Tango dropped when I was 14…but I made a mashup with Crystal by Fleetwood Mac, originally by Buckingham Nicks.

I was working on it the night he died, in fact the last time I talked to him I was crying listening to this…it says everything I need to say. And it’s like I knew what was going to happen that night (I knew he was ill and told him he was dying, he brushed it off, like men do, but I didn’t think it would be a few days later)

Oriignal:

That mashup is here -be warned, strobe effects and some pictures of him very briefly I took of him at the funeral and after he died.

And Sandy Denny’s Ramblin Boy was played at his funeral. He didn’t really like modern music, Handel and Wagner was more his jam and I played a Andreas Scholl aria because we had seen him together. But I heard this on the train the day after he died and it said everything about us that needed to be said.

I used to be a DJ, I run a podcast…I relate everything emotional to music. It’s my lifeblood.
