the original (real human beings) footage is usually listed down the side panel. If you watch it and then see the playmobil version one has to tip one's hat to the person who actually took the time & effort to get it so precisely right! :-)
I'm trying to make an effort to recommend more bands I find. I suppose some would call me a bit of a hipster when it comes to my music but I like bands that play good music and that's it.I found a band earlier on my Song a day Podcast and they are offering their EP for free on their website

All you have to do is put in your email address for their mailing list and I'm sure you could unsubscribe at the first chance you get.
I highly recommend them. Very, very impressed.

Glad you liked them. I do enjoy a band where the instruments play as much a part in the music as the voice does
If you like good, well-produced pop played by bands who write and perform everything themselves there's an indie label called Lojinx keeping the dream alive. My favourites up there are Pugwash (try http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFBIb6... for a taster) and Farrah (try http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Ih0u4...).
Gun Club "The House On Highland Avenue" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YH6j7P... which was the earworm that inspired my latest flash story on the blog "One Eyed Queen" http://sulcicollective.blogspot.co.uk...

ah good...
Listening to sky fall. Makes me want to get my spy outfit on and jump across the roof tops. Will probably just stroll to the pheasant though.
The Skyfall theme's a bit Bond by numbers for me. Try Weird Al's theme from Spy Hard (the movie's not great, but the theme is fun).
I just heard Katie Melua on Radio 4 so now I am listening to Piece by Piece.....http://www.amazon.co.uk/Piece-By-Kati...
I like it.
"Kalte Sterne" ("Cold Stars" by Einsturzende Neubauten http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btP8lB...
Cold stars as in the cosmos but also as in celebrities...

When done well, musical theatre can blow you away. You just have to find the right show for you, Marc ;)
I really never took to the stage show of Les Mis, but the film I loved. Try it! You might surprise yourself :)

Doesn't exist Jonathan :-)
Like opera, to me the actors just need to say how they feel not sing it!

Just read in Don Delillo's Running Dog today:
"Before pop art, there was such a thing as bad taste. Now there's kitsch, schlock, camp and porn".
Patti (A Fine Pear) wrote: "You said porn like its a bad thing, Marc!Ha Jonathan! That I'd pay money to see!"
If Marc couldn't bear to be in it, he'd have to be programme seller.
Patti (A Fine Pear) wrote: "You said porn like its a bad thing, Marc!Ha Jonathan! That I'd pay money to see!"
I was citing somebody else's words. Since I contribute to a thing called "Games Perverts Play" I'm down with porn! Er erotica sorry, isn't that what we have to call it these days?

Hope it's okay to post here, but Amy's just put up another song on Youtube, it's the first time she's used a green screen and so she's really exited about it!www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wOBfus1JPY

Long time since I played any music. Best of Mamas and Papas was last CD I played. (Love Creeque Alley) Last tune I heard/saw was the new Hurts single - damned if I remember the title though!

Same! I also really like Kickstarts and Close Enemies.
