#25TitleTracks - Last day! 25. Ordet - Bremer/McCoy (2015) A little slice of beauty from Denmark to close things off. It's been fun!

'You can't post your way out of fascism.' A personally uncomfortable read from @janus.bsky.social at @404media.co. www.404media.co/you-cant-pos...

RIP #RobertaFlack

Almost certainly the best thing I was ever told about owls was when I met an owl handler at an owl sanctuary and he told me that the wild owls who lived near the sanctuary worried about the tame show owls there and sometimes stopped by to leave them shrews and mice as presents.

It’s today! #WoodBeez

I like it here but there are some accounts that act as left-wing hysteria mongers in a way that reminds me of how big right wing influencers on x whip up their bases remember: a good journalist will make it clear how they source claims (no, there are not only 3 staffers at yosemite right now)

Ffs. And it took so long to bake it too.

Repost with the first album you bought with your own money. (Also @thriftonaut.bsky.social w t actual f?)

Welp!

The end of the world is coming.....in my next book After, which you can preorder with a special discount code from Waterstones this weekend only. #WPreorder

Happy 41st birthday tomorrow to Scritti Politti’s ‘Wood Beez (Pray Like Aretha Franklin)’. If I were pressured for My Favourite Single Ever, it would be this. From @thequietus.com: ‘like an alien transmission beamed out to an unsuspecting planet…’ #VinylCommunity #ScrittiPolitti

#25TitleTracks 23. Timepeace - Terry Callier (1998) 'In 1998 Callier's album Timepeace won a United Nations award, which meant that his employers at the University of Chicago finally learned about his double life...'

#25TitleTracks And, speaking of the Hedge Schools… 22. A Murder Of Crows - @joechester.bsky.social (2005) If you like your production full and your choons hooky.

‘Abracadabra, amor-oo-na-na Abracadabra, morta-oo-ga-ga Abracadabra, abra-oo-na-na" In her tongue she said, "Death or love tonight"’ Works for me, Gaga.

There's the late, great Jonah Lomu with future Ireland captain Dan Sheehan on his shoulder. That was 2003 and Sheehan - who captains Ireland from hooker in Cardiff on Saturday - was four years old

I find this very moving: a 10-year-old Ukrainian boy who moved to the West of Ireland 2 years ago as a refugee, speaking in Irish of his love of playing Irish music

#25TitleTracks 21. At The End Of A Winding Day - The Hedge Schools If you liked where Talk Talk ended up, you'll like this.

Jerry Butler, the soul great and original Impressions lead singer who became a Chicago politician, has died at 85

@gerrwalsh.bsky.social + @naimeecoleman.bsky.social back again with a new track. If a fraction as great as 'Dream In D', it'll be worth a listen! #NowListening #NewIrishMusic #SpeirGorm

Thinking about that time I was walking through town in a wide-brimmed hat and purple lipstick and an old man called me Boy George

#25TitleTracks 19. High Energy - The Supremes (1976) A post-Diana highlight.

One day about 18 years ago I was looking around a Yoko Ono exhibition at the Berkeley Art Museum when an old wall phone in the gallery rang. This phone was part of the show. I looked around & I saw that it was just me & a security guard in the gallery. He said, “oh my god you need to answer it! 1/5
