Any House music lovers out there will appreciate a throwback to Summer 2016, when Tieks released this Ministry of Sound tune Sunshine, featuring Dan Harkna. Loads of festivals have been cancelled up and down the UK, and across the world. For a lot of us, these events have been a …

I’m not a morning person, but my daughter is. She often comes to see me when she wakes up. I like a bit of Wham! ‘Wake me up before you go-go,’ as it’s happy music. If that came on instead of my phone alarm, which goes off like a ‘red-alert’ …

Since I wanted to go with a music theme for this meme, I’ll pop in some Michael Jackson. He released the song, Black or White, on his album Dangerous, back in 1991/92. I remember watching the original video on Rage. That’s an Australian music channel, as that was where I …

I enjoyed watching the film Grease when I was younger, and so I thought I’d include the duet by Danny and Sandy, Summer Nights. This summer may be a bit of a bummer for those who are in long-distance relationships and not able to see each other face-to-face. With video …

Let’s Twist Again is a feel-good summer song from the swinging 60s, performed by Chubby Checker, aka Ernest Evans. Things may be different this summer, but I’m hoping we’ll all be able to twist in some shape, before too long. I’ve just realised the badge hasn’t been linking to the …

As another song for my Every Damn day In June repertoire, I’m including the Britney classic, Hit me, baby, one more time. Lyrically, it’s a bit cheesy, though I was recently asked if I had a school-girl style skirt. Since I didn’t, I decided to buy myself this one from …

My Every Damn Day In June line-up wouldn’t be complete without Red Hot Chilli Peppers. This track is such a classic. And before you ask, yes I saw the RHCP live at V Festival in 2003 😉 Sometimes I feel like I don’t have a partnersometimes I feel like my …

I never really listened to The Cure much, growing up, but I stumbled across this track recently, and thought I’d add it to my summer play list for Every Damn Day In June, as it reminds me of adventures in the sun. I would so love to have some real …
Read More »All About Chemistry
As a science geek, I like the quirky song Chemistry by Semisonic. I also like the sexual imagery in this pop-rock track: Oh, all about chemistry,Won’t you show me everything you know,Ah, wonder what you do to me. Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh.Sometime later I met a young graduate,When I had nobody to …
