To alleviate the slings and arrows of what has been a bit of a gruelling week so far - what with the untypical 35-40C temperatures that swept over London on Monday and, particularly, Tuesday, and work, which has been a bastard - it is an opportune moment, methinks, for a little exploration of some of the "newer" musical discoveries that have caught my ear of late...
...and now that Auntie Beeb has unceremoniously dispensed with fave radio shows such as Ana Matronic's, I have even had to resort to discovering a lot of these all by myself! Such as......
...a camp little Pride number (albeit a tad late for our own London celebrations):
A rather catchy (and very welcome) return to form from a "house fave" band:
A couple of "classical" numbers that might be more familiar than one might expect:
And now for something completely different. As the video's blurb says - "What if Gypsy Woman was released five years earlier, in 1987...in Italy?".It's brilliantly done:
Now, saving the best to last...
Can a dance choon and video get any gayer?!
...and then there's this - the very, very welcome return of those honorary members of the homosexualist Royal Family, French and Saunders Keren and Sarah!
As ever, dear reader - let me know your thoughts...
STOP PRESS:
I forgot to include this one...
