Hearts season ticket holder for over 50 years BTW What's wrong with The Hearts Song and Hearts of glory, that makes it a dirge? As for The flower of Scotland being racist. Which race would that be? And which part makes it racist? Is GSTQ racist or xenophobic (anti Scottish) ? You know the verse that has officially (cough) been removed. What's worse? Crushin' Scots or saving your country from invaders? Anyway, I'd rather have Scots wha hae as the national anthem.

A song called Lemon Tree, which was being played absolutely everywhere when I was on holiday in Goa then Thailand many years ago.

More than 4 decades over 14 myself, but still a big fan of naked / semi-naked women - not quite lost interest yet, but I daresay the day might come... (Another 4 decades maybe? ) As I mentioned, I took the very sensible precaution of not listening to the song - an increasingly wise move with much of today's popular music - but thanks for the extracts anyway.

Don’t get me wrong, scantily clad women is still very much pleasing on the eye (depending on the woman ofc). But there’s a point where chucking ***** at the camera is a bit strong 😂 Luckily enough, unlike my other contributions to this thread, I doubt this one will be making it onto the playlist at my work.

All roads lead to Gorgie Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Just heard a song on the radio that brought back memories of how bland music always seems to be played as background music in a lot of retailers, clothes shops especially. Sing it Back by Moloko is one of those boring songs that just drag on and on with repetitive lyrics that make you glad when they finally, at long last fade out.
