Oh, but then again it could be Hold Your Head Up or God Gave Rock 'n' Roll To You by Argent. Or.....The Sweet - Teenage Rampage, or......T.Rex - Ride A White Swan, or...........Gypsy - Uriah Heep, or........Strawbs - Stormy Down, or......Fairport Convention - Matty Groves & Meet On The Ledge, or.......David Bowie - The Pretty Things Are Going To Hell, or......there are just so many, too many wonderful pieces of music out there.
Ouch !

A song by Belgian Singer Francoiz Breut called "Si Tu Disais" - just so haunting - version is from advert for a French film



and here is version she sang with Calexico



Going to see her showcase her new album in November :P

Yes,that's the one Roger! With those poetic, prodigious lyrics: 'Was that the trees a-rustling? Or the hinges of the gate?
Or Ernie's ghostly gold tops a-rattling in their crate?' there is a monumental shiver that explodes down my spine. However, it's the hugely erotic 'She nearly swooned at his macaroon and he said, "If you treat me right,
You'll have hot rolls every morning and crumpets every night." that sends a more aphrodisiac shiver down the old backbone. :lol:

Johnny Cash's version of 'Hurt' but it might also have something to do with the video.............anyway, the two together cannot fail to send a shiver down your spine

WTA - remind me to be tidying out my sock drawer the night that's on at the wee pictures. Song's pretty good, but the film looks like a right pile of old keech :wink:

Gaun yirsel Dougie - goosebumps everytime! So many people don't know he wrote this, and thought it was just a coincidence it sounded good on the pipes. :shock: All we need are some words to add to it, for the new national anthem :wink:

And Sheik now showing his more sensitive side :wink:

When I say 'sensitive', clearly this is down to the fact that I used to fancy the pants off Natalie when I was merely a young Sheiklet :oops: but what a sensational song none-the-less. Gaun yirsel Natalie, gee it laldy!

That song from the movie "If", the religious one with the African beat. "Sanctus", I think it was called (help me out here, someone.) It sounded beautiful, mood transforming even. Like Evening Primrose Oil in choral form.
