This is the original by the writer, though it was a big hit for The Hollies.

He had a bit of a hit with this too.

I actually visited the tiny graveyard in France where Eric Bogle sat and composed this song.  Not specially, we just happened to be on holiday and found we were staying at a gites in the very village where he was inspired.

SIR Mick Jagger

 

[grumpyhack]

STREET (Bono also an honourary Sir)

I've mixed feelings about U2. Some songs are better than others and this one's pretty good.

[dondo]

I'm a big U2 fan, though probably that love has wained in recent years but the 30 year Joshua Tree concert was truly fantastic. And with Where the Streets. With or Without You and Still Haven't Found as the opening 3 tracks I don't think there's many albums with such strong opening tracks. So a U2 link to OCTOBER

 

Love the move from October into New Year's Day on this

RUBBER

 

I really liked that Erasure track, not that familiar with them.  I also appreciate that it should be an eraser that's a rubber but when something has been rubbed out you could say it's an erasure - I think.

[dondo]

Great band Erasure, seeing them live for the first time later this year. But always liked Vince Clarke from Depeche Mode and Yazoo. 

Anyway back to link and BULLET

PLANET  The Earth is the third stone, or planet from the sun.  Sorry I couldn't find a Hendrix original performance.

VENUS 

 

Saw them at Glastonbury in 2019 and they were surprisingly good 

[grumpyhack]

SHOCKING The original version by Dutch band Shocking Blue - included because Dutch pop didn't come to a lot.

Got myself a new sledge hammer today to start a bit of fence building.  Life in the fast lane!
