Pick a song that reminds you of a color. What color?

This reminds me of the green of the Stamford Bridge pitch, and the blue of the Chelsea kit

I always feel a bit sad at the end of the season, wondering how long before I'm going to be there again, and whether any of the team will have left.

Includes swears. Chelsea songs are supposed to be the sweariest in the league

Post a song that mentions another recording artist or artists.

I'm very fond of songs which reference other artists. For my own amusement, I've compiled a list of the ones I've posted so far:

Bob Marley & The Wailers - Punky Reggae Party (12" Version)

Wailers be there, The Dammed, The Jam, The Clash, Maytals Dr. Feelgood too, ooh, No boring old farts No boring old farts

Christy Moore - Lisdoonvarna (Live)

A 747 for Jackson Browne They had to build a special runway just to get him down Before the Chieftains could start to play Seven creamy pints came out on a tray Shergar was ridden by Lord Lucan Seán Cannon did the backstage cookin' Clannad were playin' "Harry's Game" Christy was singin' "Nancy Spain" Mary O'Hara and Brush Shields Together singin' "The Four Green Fields" Van the Man and Emmy Lou Moving Hearts and Planxty too!

"Didn't they teach you to get your hair cut at school? You look like a Rolling Gnome." "Nah, not at the London school of Eco-gnome-ics."

Nanci Griffith - Listen to the Radio

Where would we be without the songs Loretta wrote

Ricky Nelson - Garden Party

And people came from miles around, everyone was there Yoko brought her walrus, there was magic in the air An' over in the corner, much to my surprise Mr. Hughes hid in Dylan's shoes wearing his disguise

Seamus Moore - Transit Van

At festivals and fleadhs and fairs If the craic was good, you'd find me there At all big matches in Croke Park And I danced with Springsteen in the dark

Television Personalities - Part Time Punks

Then they go to Rough Trade To buy Siouxsie And The Banshees They heard John Peel play it Just the other night They'd like to buy the 'O' Level single Or "Read about Seymour", But they're not pressed in red So they buy The Lurkers instead

The Commodores - Nightshift

Marvin Sang of the joy and pain He opened up our mind And I still can hear him say "Oh, talk to me So you can see what's goin' on" Say you will sing your songs Forevermore, evermore

The High Kings - Irish Pub Song

And you know you're in an Irish pub the minute you're in the door For a couple of boys with bodhrans will be murdering Christy Moore

The Saw Doctors - I'd Love To Kiss The Bangles

I wouldn't kiss Liam O'Maonlai, Guns & Roses or Muddy Waters. I wouldn't kiss Brian Wilson Or his lovely yankee daughters. And Shane McGowan is not my type Because his teeth are green and mangled But Jesus Christ Almighty, I'd love to bang the Bangles

The Undertones - My Perfect Cousin

His ma bought him a synthesizer She brough the Human League into advise her

Post a song that's a different speed than you're used to

I found this while looking slfor something else. Lovely song, lovely version.

Pick a song that matches what you are really thinking about just now

Feeling knackered atm.

The last song you heard on the radio

I couldn't remember the last song I heard, and also I'm only really posting songs I really like...so I decided I'd post the next song I like that came on the radio.

There was only a short clip of this on BBC Radio 2 this morning, but it's fab. I don't think I've posted anything by Grace Jones on here before....shocking.

Hit shuffle on your music library and post the first song played

A big thank you to whoever came up with this prompt, as I had totally forgotten this LP

Post a song that uses an instrument in an abnormal way

I couldn't think of a song that uses an instrument unusually - I'm a very basic sort of chap, I guess.

However this did make me think of drummers who stand up to play the drums - Andrew 'Clobberer' Ranken of the Pogues who sadly left us recently, and Slim Jim Phantom of the Stray Cats

Share a song released 2+ years ago that you recently discovered.

I love this song.

I like funny songs, and this one is an answer record to one of my favourite funny songs, A Boy Named Sue

It's very witty, there are musical references to other Johnny Cash songs throughout, and it's got a happy ending.

You can't ask for more than that :)

What song has the same vibe as your favorite book? Which book?

Picking this particular Charlie D book because it begins with the word 'London'.

Share a song you call something other than its official title. What do you call it?

For a long time I called this song 'Eleanor Rigsby'....I did think that was what it was called

I did most of my growing up in the 1970s, and their was a sitcom called Rising Damp which featured a character called 'Rigsby', He could have been Eleanor Rigby's comical, but malevolent cousin. He was the landlord of a shabby house and the only people he ever interacted with his equally lonely tenants.

I had a nose around the internet and I can't see that Rigsby was named in reference to the Beatles song, but it does resonate.
