In her comments on requests for the '69 set from Thursday, AL mentioned that we'd be likely to hear Dusty Springfield and "the boys from Abbey Road" in a special set on Friday. Hmmm...anyone got a clue as to what theme she might be working on?

Perhaps it has to do with the Royal Wedding Friday of William & Kate.

Yeesh -- I could imagine a set of wedding songs but sounds like she's doing an all-British thing. Hrm.

Or perhaps British artists doing songs of love?

Per FB, it's a set of royal rock by various lords, knights, and other of Britain's rock gentry. So I guess that means it's Beatles, Stones, Elton, and perhaps Boomtown Rats? But how does Dusty Springfield figure? She's a Brit but was she ever given an MBE?
ETA: Ah, I see she got an OBE on the day she died, per wikipedia.

Bah. I've done everything I can to ignore this Royal Wedding nonsense, and AL throws this at us. Oh well, the music should save us. I wonder if she'll play the Princess Di version of "Goodbye Norma Jean".
-
Sheesh. I guess I'm the only one here who was up at 3am....

Like the "dweam wiffin a dweam" clip, but I really don't need to celebrate royalty.
-
BOS1 Dusty. This song always reminds me of Pulp Fiction.

Thank heaven we didn't have to hear that for Elton! BOS Elderberry Wine.

I saw some of it on telly at the hospital today. The nurses were really grossed out by the idea of condoms with the couples pictures on them.

BOS2...AL sure loves her some Shirley Bassey/Propellerheads.

Dame Shirley Bassey? I wouldn't have guessed.

I wouldn't stand by Annie Lennox either, if she's going to keep shouting like that.

NO WAY!

I can't think of a way to respond to that without sounding sexist!
There would have to some kind of drinking game for me to watch that stuff:
Drink every time someone says "magical" of "fairy tale"
every time someone mentions "she entered a commoner, and left a princess" or words to that effect
every time someone mentions Princess Di
That should have been enough.

Well, we know what was in her Mother's handbag...

I don't need to hear another U2 song again, ever.

"And I said baby
It's 3AM you should be sleeping"
That's all I got.
