I'm giggling at the prospect of someone doing a Sleaford Mods cover.

Re: Gift of Music 2020/2021
I will be in as soon as I finish making my selections.
In the meantime, I've made a Spotify playlist with everyone's selections, like I did for the last Gift of Music back in March. I will add to it as more people sign up.
The following songs are not on Spotify and thus are not on the playlist:
The Sleaford Mods - Pubic Hair LTD (j$)
Togo Project & Sana - Jelly Kiss (fluffy)

Re: Gift of Music 2020/2021
Hey Mark, the third video is showing as “not available” for me so I can’t see what it is. Could you please add the song names and artists to your post?

Re: Gift of Music 2020/2021
Not in the best position to record now, but that was true last time and I still got a song in so I guess that’s no excuse. So here we go:
“People Who Eat Darkness” - Steven Wilson
“Short Skirt/Long Jacket” - Cake
“Sinking” - The Cure
“A Mission In Life” - Stan RIdgway

Re: Gift of Music 2020/2021
I’m very excited about my gift! 4 songs I am not familiar with, but am really enjoying discovering.
Meanwhile, to help you all get in the mood, here’s a cover of a song by someone who isn’t us.
