Love is All You Need

Welcome to the latest instalment of the badly titled Everyone Has Got one Good Song blog thing. Days 64! I was thinking of building the ultimate playlist with one simple rule. One artist. One song. Each day will feature a song by an artist whose birthday is that day and then nine other songs by nine different artists just because people like things to be in tens. The playlist is here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4exU9MUJMWaouOgnu7zmSl?si=I5fqk7VpQX6aDGec7xvqsQ&pi=e-IfIWXc5GT56R So, the idea was that you might want to follow and share and either have the playlist yourself or do your own or chat about it with me, you could use the hashtag #EHGOGS. I’m on Twitter X thing as @fourfoot LOVE - August. Today’s birthday boy is Arthur Lee. As I walked around Valencia last weekend, in a state one could only describe as “Level 3 Drunk – Love and Happiness Abound”, I couldn’t stop humming this song. Everyone should have at least one Love song in their heart at all times. SUB...

Song From Guy

I’m on Twitter X thing as @fourfoot It is dedicated to birthday boy Guy Garvey. Honestly, Elbow should be forced to spend several months in prison for that godawful “A Day Like This”, even though it isn’t their fault it’s the singalong anthem for the worst kind of Glasto/2012/Paddington middle class wanker. It’s Sweet...
