Former undertaker and Transylvanian Dave Vanian starts the show by exhorting that we should 'Let's Get Lost'

The Datsuns opine that 'The Gods are Bored' whilst Kraftwerk remind us that Radioactivity is an ever-present danger. Lauran Hibbberd just says 'Bleugh' which means 'Bleugh' on her home Isle of Wight. We play the long lost original Mike D'Abo demo of 'Handbags and Gladrags' and a rare John Martyn song 'Under my Wing' sees us out with a promise of protection from a man who sadly needed it more than most..

Don’t Give Up

Giving up affects the body as well as the mind. When the mind slumps our bodies do too.

But what would happen if you took all that energy you will use in giving up and diverted it into inspiring others?  Using that unique talent that we all have.

If giving up still seems attractive, go and talk to the people who love you and what you do.

Tell them about your plans to stop caring, striving and loving – then watch them leap into action to change your mind – and give you lots of good reasons to carry on.

When you stop doing something that  people appreciate, you take something away from them too. When you decide that winning isn’t an option any more, everyone loses.

This week we play songs that will keep you going even when you’re running on empty.

Songs to survive the worst the world can throw at us and lift us from the Slough of Despond to the Royal Windsor Way.

Produced, programmed and hosted by Roy Stannard.

Absolution for beginners – songs about Forgiveness

How  often do we say that something is unforgiveable? Maybe we feel that way  20 years after the original offence was committed. Suppose it is  forgivable and we can choose to forgive? The resentment built up can  sometimes be worse than the original cause of it. So why not say I  forgive you. Will you forgive me? And a lot of the time the real culprit  is seen as ourselves. So saying the words I forgive myself can be just  as powerful.

We're playing some songs that will help you do just that.

Hope is a rainbow

Hope enables us to be true to our goals and motivated to keep trying. Hope gives us a reason to continue to fight and believe that our current circumstances will improve, despite the unpredictable nature of human behaviour. Despite the rain of fire rainbows do still come out..

Psychologist and hope researcher Charles Snyder said:

A rainbow is a prism that sends shards of multicolored light in various directions. It lifts our spirits and makes us think of what is possible. Hope is the same – a personal rainbow of the mind.

Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning.

At the end of the garden, peeping between the floor boards of the abandoned potting shed, the wizened old fronds of music long forgotten are being watered by the Chancy Gardeners of the music world. From the dry stems little explosions of colour burst forth, the sun penetrates and the dance begins. Forget the rusting rakes and shattered sacraments, Jesus was way cool. 

You found them. We play them. Songs that have been redeemed and given a new life.

Playing the Gee-Gees

Using horses to carry your advertising campaign and reinforcing it year after year is a clever move. In literature and mythology, the horse (or its alter-ego, Pegasus) signifies strength and how you should carry yourself in the face of adversity. The horse serves to remind you to take care of your emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. The horse symbolism also speaks about freedom. The horse or Pegasus is a symbol of power, freedom and steadfastness.

So in music the same set of values applies. The horse is used in music to represent freedom (wild), power (white horses) and self-sufficiency. It is a potent symbol of our pioneering spirit with links to deserts, wilderness and exploration. Why wouldn’t musicians want to write the soundtrack to that?

If you thought you knew all about the influence of the equine in rock and roll, think again.The Stones, Byrds, America, Cowboy Junkies, U2, Moby, The Sundays, Bunnymen, Joe Butt from Littlehampton. The whole bridle and groom.
