I only just came across this video. It’s already 11 years old, oh my. The music might have dated a bit (I still like it) but the video is a cracker… (Found in a 2013 page from fstoppers: “The Best… Continue Reading →
I missed this when it came out last year to celebrate 40 [!!!!] years since New Order’s Blue Monday was released back in March 1983. Here Orkestra Obsolete play it on instruments and gadgets from the 1930s. Can’t touch the… Continue Reading →
Apropos of culture/ football, music and heart… A spectacular anthem celebrating Celta de Vigo’s centenary. Very nice work, Mr Tangana. “Himno del Centenario del R.C. Celta de Vigo (1923-2023)”
