I’ve loved this song for a while (particularly for Eliza Carthy’s wonderful voice, but also for the 1950s ‘spacey’ sounds), but this compilation of women in sci-fi TV shows and films makes it even better. You can have fun spotting the clips, too. I was glad to see some Blake 7 clips as well as Farscape.

Professor Elemental - Cup of Brown Joy
A delightful Chap Hop ode to the joy of tea. “When I say Ooo/You say Long!” I like Chap Hop.

Need cheering up? I know I do, and this track is just the thing to do it. Put it on loud and bounce around like a big kid. You know you want to.
I am very fond of The Wurzels. They have been going forever, and they seem to have an absolute blast when they perform. Bonus points to them for deflating any pretentious hipsterism by appending a series of “Ooo Arrr Ooo Arrr’s” on the end of the Kaiser Chief’s “Ruby Ruby Ruby Ruby” chorus.
Very cool in all kinds of ways: loading code onto an Apple //e using the audio out of an iPad. And the ASCII music video rocks.
Caught this on The Transatlantic Sessions last week and was captivated by it. He sings with so much feeling and conviction, and it’s a brilliant, deeply melancholy song. Having so many talented musicians joining in doesn’t hurt either.
A consolatory song for those of you out there who have faced the pain and mental anguish of opening a new tub of margarine, only to find that you have an open tub already. In John’s immortal words, “It’s a nightmare scenario”.
I’m watching The Aristocats on TV, which I haven’t seen for years. There aren’t as many good tunes as The Jungle Book, but this one is great.
