So very restful...

Good to listen to in the dark, just before you sleep...

Sing me to Sleep (Feat. Neko Case) [Fran Healy]


Fran Healy, lead singer of the Scottish group "Travis" in his "solo" album. One of my favorite groups ever...

More gratuitous “Scottishness”…

Yet another group from Glasgow…

Decent little message at the end too...

Franz Ferdinand - No You Girls


Their stuff is definitely worth a look...

Gods, that accent, it’s almost like being “back home”…

Love it...
So you do know them! Tether is the first song I ever heard from them, way back in September of 2013.


CHVRCHES - Tether (live)

The Mother We Share is another classic of theirs. It's pretty neat to go back and watch the evolution of their performances of that song (or any of them). Stripped down to the elements at first, but growing in sophistication.

CHVRCHES - The Mother We Share

(live in 2012, when they were still "Churches")


(2013 on KEXP radio)


(2014 at Radio 1's Big Weekend)


(2015 alternate version on KROQ radio)


(2016 at Reading?)

Couldn't find a good, TMWS-only clip from 2017


(2018 at the Greek Theatre)


(2019 on tour in Osaka Japan)

Ok, my most very favorite CHVRCHES videos…

Sounds of home, courtesy of a tiny Scottish goddess...

CHVRCHES - Miracle (Official Video)



“Tell me tell me you'll keep me Tell me tell me you'll meet me Will you meet me more than half way yeah"

Omigod, hell yeah, anytime, anywhere…

CHVRCHES - Clearest Blue




CHVRCHES - Leave A Trace



Lauren has this “pale” “dark eyed”, “elfin”, Scottish West coast Celtic “look”, that for me, is beyond “Kryptonite”, to me, it’s just “lethal”…

It’s a “look” I have “fallen” to, so many times, and would “fall” to again, in the merest of “heartbeats”…

A “split second” “glance”, that would “last an hour”, and we’d be, “undone”…


Frank Sinatra "Some Enchanted Evening"




No goddamit, not agaaaaaaiiinnnn, nooooooo…

The song was released in 1997 by a Danish-Norwegian group and topped charts worldwide. Not surprisingly, it did not make it into my record collection.

Sometimes, it's a search that can last a lifetime.

Even though it feels that way sometimes, you never really are...

Alan Walker - Alone


I understand the "combat veteran thing, way more than you will ever know...

Imagine Dragons - Monster (lyrics)


You have "been through the fire", and are "reborn"...

Thirteen Senses - Into the fire (lyrics)


Although sometimes, you really just have to "grow a pair", stick your hand into that fire, and "LIVE"...
