A Stiring Song

Hi lovelies.

I hope you've had a lovely weekend.  After a really busy weekend last week, this week was particularly low key.  Never mind!  I did get a little painting and film time in, so that's good.

Anyway, time for this week's stirring song, which is Alcoholiday by Teenage Fanclub.

In my opinion, I am Teenage Fanclub's number 1 fan, but then I would think that of myself.  Their music is beyond incredible and they are a great example of how amazing talent comes out of Scotland (other favourite Scottish exports include Mogwai and Irvine Welsh).

Their song Alcoholiday from the album Bandwagonesque is superb, and I sing it so loudly each time I hear it.  (And it was actually the inspiration for one of my paintings last night).  I was reeeeally lucky to see Teenage Fanclub perform Bandwagonesque in its entirety a few years back, and it was one of the most magical gigs I've ever been to.  Mesmerising!  I'll never forget it.  (The Don't Look Back series of gigs All Tomorrow's Parties put on are often musical highlights for me!)

Anyway, here's the track.  Listen to it, and I'm sure you'll love it (if you love reverb, you definitely will)





Hope the end of your weekend and the start of your week goes well xoxo

(ooh, this is my 100th post!)
