Motor Ace

Not actually all that ace.

Carry On by Motor Ace is the soundtrack to a scene from Home and Away where Bobby is crying on the beach because Frank has left her because he's just realised that if they stayed together, their kids would have the WEIRDEST HAIR EVER. Well, if it's not actually from Home and Away, it sounds like it should be.

Motor Ace are from Australia, it's a sort of soft angsty sound, I can't listen to the other tracks on the disk here because it has some "enhanced" stuff on it. It's very soft angst, some of the guitar sounds like Wonderwall. Not actually all that ace, do not confuse them with Motorhead or Motor City Five.

Day of LISTS, part one

Nerds HEART lists...

OASIS have headed up an entirely arbitrary new chart in today's Metro newspaper...

To accompany a story about the Government relaxing the ban on buskers on London Underground, and said buskers being made to audition before they will be granted a license to perform, they've come up with a list of "Top Tube Tunes", and Wonderwall is at the head of it...

It's a list of golden oldies, with the only other popEx artist being crinkly Bob Dylan with "Knockin' On Heaven's Door"...

The full lineup follows:

1. Wonderwall, Oasis
2. Streets of London, Ralph McTell
3. Yesterday, The Beatles
4. No Woman No Cry, Bob Marley
5. Wonderful Tonight, Eric Clapton
6. Hey Joe, Jimi Hendrix
7. Hey Jude, The Beatles
8. Mrs Robinson, Simon and Garfunkel
9. Knockin' On Heaven's Door, Bob Dylan
10. American Pie, Don McLean
