I received it for my 16th birthday. 38 years on (almost to the day), I can remember listening to 2/0 for the first time and afterwards telling my mates how fantastic it was. Amazing to think that we are still talking about it excitedly after all this ti...

Re: Piano Room Month - 2024

Re: Piano Room Month - 2024
Interestingly they seemed to allow the songs to completely fade out before talking - I wonder if that means they might crop up as b-sides/FL content? Or is that just the style of 'The Piano Room'.

Re: Tom Hibbert article in Guardian
I grew up on his writings for Smash Hits and his "Who the hell does X think he is?" in Q magazine were fantastic.

Re: Lead singles ranked
Good topic Dog and one I have been thinking about too. As others have said it’s really difficult to create lists as they change on a daily basis. I’ve tried to weight this list in favour of what I felt like at the time as well as what I feel like now. I 100% think West End girls should be on the lis...

Yes I can hear it now thanks.
It is a great song though - definitely one for the 'deep cuts' show that we are all hoping for.

Thanks for the final episode of season 2 - another great set of shows, well structured and produced, and always a few new bits for us ‘experienced’ (ie. old) fans.
