Very much like .............

You need to copy the youtube link into the film icon above Gov to embed

ffs, even i know how to do it.

Let see what it is then ......... ah Elliot Smith

I think something beautiful may have occured between pages 19 and 20 of this thread.

Lovely work.

Having said that...

It's about time a few reinforcements showed up on here

I've been holdin out on my Jack Jones against the wider forces of hostile philistinism and downright disinterest for months now!!!

Months I tell ya!!!!!! :face:

Night after night...

peering over the parapet...

...my ten-gallon hat all fulla arrows


It aint right man

Anyhow... to business

Any classical stuff bin posted on here ever?

No?

Good!

Let's start with the best thing ever and then let standards slide disgracefully over the following months until we reach the point where posting any old pish seems valid.


It's always worked in the past



I reckon MaD JaCKiE's got the ole ghost electricity in this clip...

...either that or indigestion ;)

She could fukkin play a bit tho TBF :o

Like film music... with knobs on

(The mad wee theme in the 2nd half was written to take the piss out of the strutting, triumphalist Nazis as they flooded across W Europe. Check the big trombone raspberries as the thme colapses Rock & Roll or what?!!! )

A Swedish tenor!!!

Still the best recorded versh by a country mile tho...

Yes, it is she!
It is the goddess,
more charming and more beautiful.
Yes, it is she!
It is the goddess
who has come down among us.
Her veil has parted and the crowd is kneeling.

It's much nicer in the original Francais obviousment

Oui, c'est elle!
C'est la déesse
plus charmante et plus belle!
Oui, c'est elle!
C'est la déesse
qui descend parmi nous!
Son voile se soulève et la foule est à genoux!


Luvverly

See...

That's the problem with classical stuff

You got nowheres to go in the playlist afterwards

You gotta start all over again

Back to basics ;)



Frank Wilson?

Never heard of him

Fillums....

Rubbish nowadays by and large.

Even the music/soundtracks.

Who needs to see a load of stuff exploding while a pot-bellied macho shithead tears off smart-ass one-liners that are obviously beyond the intellectual limits of the character (and the actor an'all in most cases)

Speshly when you aint got ole Adolph Deutsch to pour balm on the unlikely premise.

I mean...


Insignificant cog in the machinery of capitalism glimpses a vision of escape in the form of a beautiful and unattainable company employee.

He's a schnook - she's a bright, witty and sharp young lift operator.

And yet....

...with that choon in the background...


...it all comes out right in the end!!!

Puh-leeze



Fukkin heartbreakin theme tho...

If you haven't seen the whole thing - follow the Youtube links (2/12, 3/12 etc)

A fukkin brammer!

Almost as affecting as Gregory's Girl....


Hmmmm....

Fillums!!!

The wee cultural staging-posts on your rambling journey through the large-scale practical joke that constitutes existence on this big and beautiful blue marble whirling through oblivion.

Or....


A fukkin beautifullly concise and evocative representation of adolescent hope and longing and yearning (speshly yearning) and the appeal of loose-limbed, open-minded foxes in tailored haute-couture outfits...


Or....


Just the best shot, best lit, most aesthetically pleasing and best told story that the boy George L ever made.

Star Wars???


You aint even close

Same rules apply

1/12, 2/12, 3/12 etc etc...



"Where is the dazzling beauty I've been searching for all of my life?"


Stay toooned :rendeer:

That Sergei Rach knew a thing or two about fillum music an'all...




If you don't break down and sob at 0.49 when ole Celia sez... "I'll be there...", then you prolly aint hopelessly drunk and recklessly in charge of an unguarded pooter at gone four in the a.m.

Arf!




Note to the terminally curmudgeonly, and/or misanthropic...

You may want to look away now

If you hear the sound of a grown man blubbing ...

...it's not what you think.


I have a heavy cold is all

OK...


Hands up....


I was gony kid ye's on that I had gone up the wooden H to B'fordshire at the relatively civilised hour of "gone four in the a.m."


Then...










... I found this in my reckless, recalcitrant quest for self-discovery, aimless thrills and top tunes.











For my fave nay-sayer

In colour too

If you don't want to beat this patchily-bearded, canary-shirted,self-regarding COCK! to death with claw hammers....


Then I despair







I really do







Beat all and any self-regarding cunts to death with claw hammers is my rule for life

You know it makes sense (*)






























(*) Actually... it's more of a guideline than a rule...

...and anyway - sense is a transient impulse which compels even the most rational of us to say stupid things.

Even involving claw-hammers.

Sometimes.

Sometimes you say things that are even more stupid than that.

If you stay up late enough




Triffic track tho

The Supremes can be disregarded...


(Apart from the delicious and delectable Flo Ballard - on the left )


Strictly over-rated...

That Diana Ross could never hold a tune

Even with a really big bucket

(Allegedly )


But stick around for the delectably delicious Dusty introducin Martha and the Vees

Nowhere to Run is one of the great under-rated Motowners IMHO

Even more so than Jimmy Ruffin's magical "It's Wonderful (to be loved by you)"

Like y'all didn't know that already

"I know you're no good for me...
But free of you - I'll never be"

Astonishing perf from La Dust at the start

I know it's almost a cliche now - but that is a truly remarkable voice

Duffy???

Never heard of her

More triffic shots of the lovely Flo...

Then it's all about the voices...


The Temps...

Martha...

REALLY singin

A rare occurence indeed these days!

Like the Teds beating a first division side convincingly in a cup competition

Or one of the milk-drinkin, mouth-breathin, pallid wee pre-pubescent pretenders that are currently described as "bluesy" or "soulful" or "sexy" coming up with a live performance like this EVER in their career!!!

Bollox!

Thought that last one might've flipped the page...

You know how I get about these things this time a night

Ah well...

Lovely stop/start with the harpsichord triads and shit

It is well wicked



Armstrong&Miller CSC

Intit amazin what ye can work out with just a little research? ;) :o



No idea what the vidja means mind

Molto payola!

An overblown, cheesy, late 60s vibe for me....

A poncey art-house movie for Crownybhoy...

(or Odd-Bod Junior as I can't help but think of him now )

"Star Trek IV - The Wrath of Khan's Search for Aguirre" unless I miss my guess...

Fabiluss

Groovy...

Far out...

Not necessarily stoned but uhhh...


Beautiful

"On the firefly platform of sunny Goodge Street
A violent hash smoker shook a chocolate machine
Involved in an eating scene...

Smashing into neon streets in their stonedness
Smearing their eyes on the crazy-coloured goddess...

Listening to sounds of Mingus' mellow fantastic...


"My my..." they sigh"

And I din't hafta look a single word of that up!

Pop your acid Spangle now chums...

...it may be about to get a bit freaky


We're through the looking-glass peee-puhhlll!

In my dreams of glory....


I am Dave...

Plissken is Basher...

Rum is half-price in The Gaff...


...and both of us have an uncannily strong hunch about the winner of the 2.30 at Ripon.

The year is 1978.

Or 1977.

You know what they say about people who can remember living through the 70s...

They say:


..."You poor cunt. Here... sit down.. havvacuppatea.... you must be mentally exhausted. D'ye want a Chelsea Whopper? "

In my nightmares of failure...






























Ahhhh- you don't want to know about my nightmares of failure...

You couldn't handle my nightmares of failure...






The guy in the bad trousersuit on the right wrote "Cant Get You Out of My Head" for Kylie fact fans

sorry dudes, embedding not allowed for this gem, lay back and enjoy................

When you see a genius giant of true oddness

The authentically bonkers visionary


The beautifully flawed obsessional....


You tend not to get too excited about kettles

Or Marilyn Manson






I love this guy


I think he may be genuinely mentally ill


The two aren't mutually exclusive...

See?!!!!

Fukkin bonkers genius



Yeah!!!


I've been searching for the young soul rebels...


.....I can't find the anywhere... where have you hidden them???

Tccch

... of course I've looked down the side of the couch
