In the latest issue of Annually, Chris listed "Breathe" by Camelphat as a song he was listening to at the time.

It‘s quite a good club track and you can hear some similarities on Decide, although Decide is (clearly) better. ;)

It's a nice track!

Not album obvious album material for me, but it could have been atmospheric filler.

(Also we can stop arguing about Brexit now. You'll get Brexit. Now you have to deliver all those massive promises. Focus on that.)

And Burning the heather sounds like a Daho's song :

Don't often buy into these "sounds like" comparisons, but this one I can hear!

Yes, than you for paying my attention to this. I am a fan of Daho, but somehow I didn't notice. This is indeed very similar in a good way. They should colaborate one day, I know PSB appreciate his music.
I've been around the world for a number of reasons. I've seen it all the change of seasons, and I, my lord, may I say nothing?

alig's comment was not political. It was just one huge slur on millions of people, not to mention being a pack of lies. Normally I'd let stuff like this go but after last night I think people like him should be sterilised.
Interesting that someone who prefers the anti-Semitic Corbyn thinks that people who disagree with him should be sterilized. Just sayin'.....

"Decide" is cool. I'm quite liking this Hotspot era!
It wasn't just his lie about Corbyn though was it? But of course that was the main thing you latched on to. He also slagged off the majority of the population for wanting to remain in Europe and for caring about the planet we live on. Quite a sweeping statement! Of course I was joking about sterilising people like him. I mean there wouldn't be the hospital beds for it would there? Maybe we can just plug them all in to a VR Brexit simulation game and they can exist in a 1950s seaside holiday snap where there's honey still for tea and probably the odd wasp or two.

Greetings Daveid,

I assume you meant The European Union, not Europe...

Retro. :)

Lol! The abject stupidity of your comment speaks volumes. The Nazis were National SOCIALISTS. The Soviets were socialists, too. Both systems were totalitarian. Communists murdered over a 100 million people. You don't call this fascist? Are you naive, ignorant or just your average commie pretending to be antifa?

You probably think the Deutsche Democratic Republic or the Democratic People's Republic of Korea are democratic. Seriously, a history lesson or two wouldn't hurt here...

Corbyn must go. But he is not a fascist. Corbyn is not antisemitic. His manifesto isn't even particularly radical. But don't let details get in the way of an image cemented in your head by lies and exaggerations repeated ad infinitum by a kowtowing and largely right wing media. They and their Tory paymasters play people like puppets and are experts. They know which buttons to press and can make you think what they want. They say Corbyn, you see red, hammers and sickles, Lenin and Ukrainian peasants wielding scythes in a wheatfield while Theresa May skips through with a mischievous grin on her face. Big Brother would cream his jeans if he had today's means of misinformation though quite frankly I feel after yesterday that I ought to learn to love him after all.

As for the song: Strings sound like straight out of Into thin air and Leaving and the beat out of Inner Sanctum.

Yes, those lovable socialists, the Nazis, with their love of equality and sharing.
