Everybody Laughs David Byrne - song - 2025

This uplifting and feel good song by David Byrne has been an ear worm these past couple of weeks. Very different to Talking Heads, and yet it could be simply because itโ€™s so different to the current music trends! dzr.page.link/1UmDnWiey5iG... #vinylnerd #everbodylaughs

Sandwiches always seem to get me. If I had a pound for every time โ€œIโ€™m reaching for the other half (cut in half โ€œworkmanโ€ style) only to be perplexed when itโ€™s not thereโ€ then Iโ€™d be retired living on a luxury yacht. The worrying thing is that I have absolutely no recollection of eating said half! ๐Ÿซ

Tourism in the US is now a car crash, and itโ€™s going to cost them dear!

An absolute classic and a sentiment I can resonate with. There is nothing like being โ€œlost in musicโ€ ๐ŸŽต

Itโ€™s been a little while, but had some family business to take care of the past couple of weeks. Nearly finished with The Chic Organisation collection. Just a couple more 12โ€ vinyls coming in the post. Roll on July and the start of my gig season! #sistersledge #nilerodgers #vinylnerd #vinyltimelord

I thought Iโ€™d voted for โ€œChangeโ€ but that must have been for some other campaign! People who were crying โ€œtheyโ€™re all the same and as bad as each otherโ€ may appear to have a valid point ๐Ÿ˜•

Bring some colour to your musings, itโ€™s dark enough for you covering the dark political landscape, saying what weโ€™re all feeling! ๐ŸŒˆ

All stuff that youโ€™d normally see scrawled in the gents toilets, circa late 1980s!!

It sounds like youโ€™ve had a couple of โ€œBridget Jonesโ€™sโ€ days? Comfort over elegance. You canโ€™t make that mistake with a thong ๐Ÿคช

The fact they are served on the side does tend to magnify them somewhat! But as long as there werenโ€™t any accompanying stray hairs? ๐Ÿ˜ณ

It seems like foreverโ€ฆ.but less than a week, and finally had some more vinyl arrive, which pretty much fulfills my needs for Kool & The Gang from 1978-83. So will โ€œGet down on itโ€ later this evening #vinylnerd #vinyltimelord

This could be great news for Canada. Trump wonโ€™t be able to handle his intellect and will likely need a translator to understand Carney when he uses โ€œbig wordsโ€.
And with his BoE experience hopefully the UK can make great trade deals with our true North American allies!!

Just sorting through eBay feedback and realised this had slipped through the net. So dedicating these tunes to #IWD2025 ๐Ÿ˜Š from #vinylnerd #vinyltimelord

I was a bit premature in my assessment, this IS up alongside โ€˜Celebrateโ€™ and โ€˜Ladies Nightโ€™. Forgot what a TUNE โ€˜Hi-De-Hi, Hi-De-Hoโ€™ is!!

The final instalment for Friday night is this album from 1982. Not up to the level of โ€˜Celebrateโ€™ or โ€˜Ladies Nightโ€™ but still some sound beats for the dance floor! ๐Ÿ•บ๐Ÿ’ƒ

Ukraine need to hold off signing any deal for their minerals. Trump will double cross Zelenskyy at the first opportunity, which will be when Putin offers him a better deal. Starmer and Macron need to bodyguard Zelenskyy and focus on Europes unity. The US is out in the soviet wilderness now!

Yes, because youโ€™re crippling Ukraine by cutting military aid and intelligence to make it easier for your cupcake Vlad!
UK & Europe, you need to bodyguard Zelenskyy over the coming weeks. Ukraine must not give up their minerals to this backstabbing orange buffoon!!
