Blur were one of my favourite Britpop bands of the early 1990s, and my fandom carried on from there until they split up. I was one of the many people who had one leg in both camps during the great Oasis Vs Blur days of old, liking both bands equally, but for different reasons.

Rihanna & New Order Mashup Video | ‘Shut Up & Drive’ Vs ‘Blue Monday’

I have a great mash up for you today, with New Order superbly mixed with Rihanna. I’m not a big fan of Rihanna, in fact it’s fair to say I hate her.

The Beatles Vs The Monkees | Paperback Believer Mashup

This blog is all about the British Music Scene right? Yes, but that doesn’t mean I sit in a room all day just listening to British bands and singers, in fact I love a lot of American music as well as other countries musical output. So I thought I’d share a video which proves that […]

Kajagoogoo - Rocket Boy | New Song & Video

You all remember Kajagoogoo right? What do you mean no? Well for those who weren’t around in the 80s or just stayed away from cheesy pop, they were a group lead by Limahl, he of the big stupid looking multi-coloured hair.
