Do you remember every second would last a day? Do you remember how the world just seemed so simple When I think of yesterday Now the moments fade away... But that was then, shadows in the past Time moves on, a love not meant to last I wish the hours didn't move so fast And I think of you Do you remember all the songs they used to play? Do you remember every second would last a day? Do you remember how the world just seemed so simple When I think of yesterday Now the moments fade away... So where are you now? The songs of our lives So where are you now? The music has died Do you remember all the songs they used to play? Do you remember every second would last a day? Do you remember how the world just seemed so simple When I think of yesterday Now the moments fade away... Do you remember all the songs they used to play?

A response to the lack of a Doctor Who special on Christmas Day this year by Glasgow musical outfit, Scunner. For many it has become as much a part of festivities as Christmas Dinner or mulled wine, so it's rather frustrating for fans that the decision has been made to move it to a New Year's Day slot this year instead. The song references several of the Christmas specials that have graced our screens annually since it's comeback in 2005, we also mention the fact that most fans are loving the 13th incarnation of the Doctor, despite the haters who decided the series was doomed after the character becoming a woman. LYRICS NO DR WHO THIS CHRISTMAS ---------------------------------------------------- ANOTHER YEAR HAS GONE ANOTHER CHRISTMAS SONG BUT I THINK SOMETHING'S WRONG IT'S TREACHERY THIS YEAR WON'T BE THE SAME FOR ME & YOU, BABY THIS YEAR COZ THERE AIN'T NO DOCTOR WHO, BABY THE CHRISTMAS INVASION REGENERATION ALL GONE WRONG SPINNING LETHAL CHRISTMAS TREES (AH AH, AH AH) 2018 & A NEW CREATIVE TEAM BUT THEY'VE RUN OUT OF IDEAS SO THERE'S NO DOCTOR THIS CHRISTMAS WE THOUGHT THERE'D ALWAYS BE THIS NEW TRADITION, LIKE TINSEL, PANTO & IVY AND WE'RE ALL LOVING NUMBER 13 SOME HATERS GONNA HATE, BUT THEY CAN'T BE PLEASED OH OH OH OH OH OH NO SO THERE'S NO DOCTOR THIS CHRISTMAS WE THOUGHT THERE'D ALWAYS BE WE WANT OUR HERO OF TIME & SPACE WHERE SHE SHOULD BE AND WE'RE ALL LOVING NUMBER 13 SOME HATERS GONNA HATE, BUT THEY CAN'T BE PLEASED OH OH OH OH OH OH NO OH HEY IT WON'T BE THE SAME, NO NO NO NO TWICE UPON A TIME, WITH THE 12TH & THE 1ST VOYAGE OF THE DAMNED GAVE US KYLIE MINOGUE & BANNAKAFFALATTA, WELL IT CAN'T ALL BE GOOD.

Watch the fab new single off the forthcoming album (of the same name) by Joe Kane’s THE POPPERMOST. In anticipation of the big debut album coming out July 30th, the single and its music video of the title track, “Hits To Spare,” is released to duly keep us entertained. Directed by Iain Mutch of Walkerandwilliam productions, the video is completely shot in Glasgow city centre during the last week of full lockdown. Kane states: “We originally started at the location of the stage door of the Beatles exit from the venue of the Glasgow show on the final UK tour in late ’65. That was at the Odeon cinema on Renfield Street (Where I also saw Ghostbusters as a child in 1985!). We were blessed with a beautiful sunny day and tried to showcase the gorgeous landmarks and well known attractions of our city including George Square. Unfortunately, the same location was recently overrun with violent thugs but with this video we claim it back for Glasgow in the name of hope, music and love.” The Beatles trivia is essential to this project, which is a virtual one-man Beatle show as Kane records and performs his Mersey-inspired tunes all on his own with a meticulous attention to detail - generating inspired results. “Ultimately, this album was about making a very fresh, quick and positive pop record, utilising the recording aesthetics and sound of my favourite music,” says Kane, who is currently putting together a live version of the band that’ll be ready to get people twisting and shouting as soon as possible…so keep an eye on the socials! [https://linktr.ee/ThePoppermost] Based in Glasgow, Joe Kane keeps a busy man, recording under various alias such as Dr. Cosmos’ Tape Lab (You Are The Cosmos) and Radiophonic Tuckshop (Last Night From Glasgow) while working with countless artists including the late, great Neil Innes (The Rutles), Joey Molland (Badfinger), Alan White (Plastic Ono Band), and BMX Bandits. He can recently be heard kick starting the Ex Norwegian & Friends tribute album to Liverpool’s singer-songwriter Jimmy Campbell, “Sing Jimmy Campbell,” with a fantastic take of the classic Rockin’ Horse track “Yes It Is.” The single “Hits To Spare" is available via Think Like A Key Music [https://www.thinklikeakey.com] across all streaming platforms starting May 21st and boasts a non-LP b-side “Up Against It”, which is inspired by the unused title of the potential third Beatles movie by Joe Orton.

And so we come to (probably) the final video of the "Hits To Spare" LP era. This little promo was made by the fab Walkerandwilliam for the 1st anniversary of The Poppermost but I held it back as I came down with Covid and didn't want to know about it! As it happens we made this vid the night before I tested "+" but at the time I thought I was just rough from a raging hangover ....BUT IT WAS THE DREADED YOU KNOW WHAT. Well I'm alive and luckily Iain from Walkerandwilliam didn't catch it despite being cooped up with me for several sweaty hours. We wanted to make a little "in the studio" vid and show kinda what it's like when I do a Poppermost song at Fabbey Road. Sadly in reality I can't multiply myself but now I don't have to as we have the wonderfully hot rhythm section of Dick & Des for the next record and beyond! On tour round the UK soon this Autumn/Winter. Check our Facebook for details. "Hits To Spare" LP/CD still out. Grab one. 🤩 Think Like A Key Music

My inspiration for this song ,came from the loss of my brother James from Alzheimer's .The video was filmed in Clydebank where we were brought up. The song relates to my experience of watching the decline of my brothers health .

MUTCH/Walkerandwilliam, https://www.youtube.com/user/walkerandwilliam. Inspired by the 1964 short film PALINDROME by Margaret Tait, which features some of the only known footage of Stella Cartwright, https://movingimage.nls.uk/film/8548. THE BIRTHDAY POEMS is a fictionalized account of the romance between STELLA CARTWRIGHT and GEORGE MACKAY BROWN, and their friendship with STANLEY ROGER GREEN About MY FATHER TOOK ME EVERYWHERE (Sung by Monica as Stella) As a young girl attending Mary Erskine School for Girls in Edinburgh, Stella would ravenously devour literature, art and music. On many nights her father would take her to bars, parties, the theatre and other social and cultural events where she would meet and charm Scotland's cultural elite.

From the forthcoming EP- 'The Tiny Coffins Of Arthur's Seat A cycle of songs exploring one of Scotland's most intriguing mysteries from various perspectives. 'In late June 1836, a group of boys headed out to the slopes of Arthur’s Seat in Edinburgh to hunt for rabbits. What they found there has remained a baffling mystery ever since. In a secluded spot on the north-east side of the hill, the boys discovered a small cave in the rock, hidden behind three pointed slabs of slate. Concealed within were 17 miniature coffins. Eight of these coffins survive to the present day, and are on display in the National Museum of Scotland. Few objects in our collection excite as much intrigue. Who made the intricate carved figures? Who did they represent? Who placed them in their secret sepulchre… and why?' - National Museum Of Scotland Of course people initially pointed fingers at the witches or weird sisters, despite them being long since abjured. This track delves into that.
