Just thought I would tell you what Im listening to. Thought it might be a good idea if when you bought a CD or heard about something you like or even dislike for any reason you could post and say why good , why bad and what type of music it is.

Nothing more than that only to help others.

The Script.
11 tracks

Nice easy listening music.
Much alike to Maroon 5
Most songs about blokes obviously sad about being dumped. Have related to that LOL
2 singles released off CD
Very Sting soundalike but lyrics are less poem like.

Rated by me 7/10

Tomorrow Im getting Elbow as been dying to get it since seeing them on Abbey Road series

Today I am subjecting the office to The Definative Rolf Harris
because they deserve it.
It's quite bouncy.

Oooo a retro toy! I had one those when I was a kid.

I am mainly listening to Radio Two in the office - only because the newsreaders are so much more calming than the idiots on Radio One.

Now I'm not sure of your age Mand and a chap should never ask a lady but I believe that Radio 2 is the new Radio 1 for anyone over the age of 22!

Personally I'm bewildered as to why anyone would listen to the likes of Edith 'I'm not sure if i'm scottish or cockney' Bowman, Chris 'talentless tw*t Moyles, Scott Mills, Judge Jules .....agggggh!!!!!!

I feel this may open a can of worms - sorry!

I don't mind Radio One to be honest. I like Vernon Kaye and I like D!ck and Dom at the weekend. However, I do have a problem with the Newsbeat team and weekday DJ's (They are so far up their own backsides it is beyond belief!!!) however some of the music is fine.

We have a quiet office today, so we can have Radio Two on, it is generally more calming.... :) I do switch off though when Jeremy Vine comes on - now that man is a total t*sser!

When the office is full, I've been listening to Manchester Rock Radio 106.10Fm via the web and that ain't too bad! The DJ's are a bit cheesy but I quite like that to be honest.

Must be an age thing!!!

Best programme on Radio by far is Radcliffe & McConie 8-10pm Mon-Thurs R2. Witty, intelligent stuff & great music.

I bought "Seldom seen kid" about 6 months ago, it's teriffic! Agree on the Script, very like Maroon 5 but I really like both their albums

It's okay, it's either good or completely sh!te and only sh!te because of clients, stupid contractors, (yes you know how you are!!!) and people trying to sell me mobile phones for the company. As for the boss telling us we can't have the radio on, :chuckle::chuckle: oh I laugh so much, he is never in..... !

Do you have wear suits as well?

I normally switch between Radio 1 and Radio 2 on the way to work depending on who is spouting/playing the least guff at the time.

They have Magic on in surgery all the time as it's the only station our prehistoric radio picks up, i swear that station has a cd collection of about 6 and just plays them on a loop 24/7. At once stage we had everyone singing/air drumming/air guitarring along to Robert Palmer, Addicted to love which must have been a bit disconcerting for the patient who was pretty heavily sedated and drifting in and out.
