Sweet Caroline
Neil Diamond
Hello and welcome to my Kinky Linky, these are some of my all time fave tunes that I just have to sing along to at the top of my voice!
No new tunes but hopefully some that are new to you, if you like em, check out the rest of their stuff.
In no particular order, first one is a classic. As soon as it comes on the radio at work people brace themselves cos I’ve perfected the La la la bit and I can project it across the whole (very big) workshop!
Heart Of Glass
Blondie
My mum had pretty good taste in music and Parallel Lines was always on the record player in my youth in the late 70’s, early 80’s. We'd all sing along to this beauty and it was great being allowed to say pain in the ass at 10!
Mr Fire Coal Man
Stiff Little Fingers
This next one is a b-side and 16 year old me and my 3 punk mates would all sing along to it really loud when it came on the blaster as pissed up teenagers hanging around the park.
Roots Radicals Rockers And Reggae
Stiff Little Fingers
Given my Facebook pseudonym I can’t leave out Rancid, I love this band and there’s so many great tunes to pick from but this is way up there
You Can Get It If You Really Want
Desmond Dekker
I love Ska, early and late and this is a beauty. So easy to sing along to.
Time for Action
Secret Affair
The chorus of this is so good to sing long to, another one from my youth. This young punk was a bit of a mod too!
Unbearable
The Wonder Stuff
I used to love singing this at my then girlfriend, now wife in the car (on cassette) These were a great band on record and live, check them out!
Do The Right Thing
Leatherface
Leatherface are one of my favourite bands of all time and Frankie Stubbs vocals are great, this one’s got a very relevant title for these times.
Kill Your Television
Ned's Atomic Dustbin
Another one from my gig going prime time, proper go mental sing along in the pit tune!
