3am

The bastard cat is meowing at the top of her voice - I get up and check her food and water and discover the reason she is objecting so loudly is that AgentX is in the kitchen making himself a sna...

Amy Winehouse

GnR

I love Guns N Roses - all thru my teenage years they were the soundtrack to my life. I had a life size poster of Axl on my bedroom wall. My fish were called Axl and Duff. I had every album, ever...

Monday monday

So I’m not at yoga this morning - I’ve got loads of bitty bits to sort out this morning, mostly because one of VAs who does this annoying sort of stuff is on holiday… That and I’ve been really po...

Having a Madonna morning

How brilliant is she? I mean obviously not the guff she comes out with now, but over the years you have to hand it to her… I love all the 80s/90s stuff.

20 years...

Did you know that this summer marks 20 YEARS since Bon Jovi released These Days? They toured it round the world and played Northern Town at a scummy rundown record shop with a lunchtime appearan...


Because I've worked in the music industry, I generally have been quite spoiled in terms of the people I've seen perform. James Brown, Dylan, Cat Stevens, Oasis, Travis, Biffy Clyro, Annie Lennox...

Hedonistic music...

Okay there's quite a lot of this in my life because I spent rather a lot of my teenage years misbehaving... But actually most of my musical choices for this category will be quite middle of the r...

The best rockstar ever...

Everyone's been leaving notes on my choices, but nobody's shared their own... Feel free to join in! Okay, so this one is the most awe inspiring rockstar... The only person ever to have left me s...

Protest songs

Best music use in a film

Okay I have two for this... and one is slightly cheating because I put the music in the film!!! So first one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=sSJ0isLg2vw I love th...


Okay this is a fairly obscure one - it's a song from my uni days which was relentlessly played in our fave nightclub... The club was one of those places where you'd walk in on a Friday night and ...


Okay - there have been many very massive parties in my life but it's actually rather unusual for me to remember any of them. There have been swanky corporate dos where they hired the Natural His...


I had a silly idea in the car the other day whilst shuffling through my ipod which is full of really random stuff... It ranges from stuff I go running with, to things I use when I'm lecturing on ...
