Top 10 Tunes

Ladies and Gentlemen!

Welcome to the Darling of All Possible Discos – Yes, you are back on the floor of the Dayglo Disco ™. Divine! Let me give you a moment to readjust. Yes, all that testosterone and pheromones and estrogen. Its pretty overwhelming if you're not used to it. Like you've been outside for a month picking grapes perhaps. Or solo bird watching on the Orkneys all winter … Or trapped in a submarine for a year. Hmm. You know what they say, if you can't get lucky at the Dayglo, you ain't never gonna get lucky. And the noise. The doof doof. The woof woof. The goof goof. CAN YOU HEAR ME? Oh good.

So tonight, you lucky punters, our guest DJ has flown all the way from Milburn (?) ... Melbunn ... oh, Melbourne. From Melbourne -- Virtual First Class on our very own Two Paddocks Virtual Airways. “We keep you well pissed all the way at 39,000 feet, Canapes extra.” Here he is – probably the most charismatic of all Aussy musos, and certainly the only half way good looking one (boy, have some ugly bands come out of that good country!) OW, who threw that FourX bottle? I'm bleeding you bastard! No, it's a great pleasure to welcome to this vulgarly gilded VirtualStage™, the dashing and exuberantly talented...MR JAMES REYNE!

We all became JamesReyne™ fans in those early days when he lead that iconic and entirely unforgettable band Austalian Crawl. Who could forget Reckless, The Boys Light Up, Oh No Not You Again, and those excellent albums Sirocco and Sons of Beachs. But upstairs, in the TP™ office we kinda prefer JamesReynes™ solo stuff, which we strongly recommend. Some you know already Fall of Rome, Hammerhead, but do you know *Mr International,**Sammy & Doofus & Our Man in NY the sublime Cry Baby Killer and The Postman. And his take on Elvis - All Shook Up – when or Good Luck Charm*. No? Well get on iTunes™ now before security eject you summarily. A great back catalogue.

Enough from me, bring him on boys, an old mucker of The Prop from way back when, a great performer, a handsome bastard, an annoyingly good actor (do more, son!) and an all round good bugger...Ladies and Gentlemen – a big Dayglo™ hand for the wonderful ... MR JAMESREYNE™!

In no particular order with no particular place to go, and bearing in mind any choices in any top ten list could change from day to day, herewith my favourite ten songs ...
