In praise of: Loveless | stuff what touches my life
https://andwecoulddance.wordpress.com/2011/01/30/in-praise-of-loveless
Stuff what touches my life. In praise of: Loveless. Recently I’ve fallen back in love with a flawed masterpiece that saw me through, ooh I dunno, 2004 and 2005. Back then, I needed an escape, and nothing could transport me to an ethereal world better than “Loveless” by My Bloody Valentine. Now, I can appreciate the album without recourse to its salving qualities and boy, it is all the better for it. By kindie on January 30, 2011. Tags: magenta cloud of loveliness.

In praise of: Belle and Sebastian | stuff what touches my life
https://andwecoulddance.wordpress.com/2009/09/13/in-praise-of-belle-and-sebastian
Stuff what touches my life. In praise of: Belle and Sebastian. Pedalling along the leafy wide lanes of Queen Street today, with the sun glinting off parked cars and manhole covers, what should come on my iPod? None other than “String Bean Jean”. In an instant I wished I was back in Kelvinbridge, sitting by the river, perusing my latest purchase from Voltaire and Rousseau. 8220;Expectations” and “Seeing other people” take me back to a bittersweet time, growing up and wishing for more....Belle and Sebas...

In praise of: Douglas Coupland | stuff what touches my life
https://andwecoulddance.wordpress.com/2011/01/06/in-praise-of-douglas-coupland
Stuff what touches my life. In praise of: Douglas Coupland. Or should I say – curse the day I ever learned of his writing. On the one hand, his writing has given me such wonderous pleasure. “Generation X”, “Life After God” and my personal favourite, “Girlfriend In A Coma” sing out with beautiful clarity that they still seem to me to be more crystalline artefacts than mere books. Each of them seem to create an image in my mind of the world as it should be. This is partly why I dare curse him.

In praise of: Celtic’s performance today | stuff what touches my life
https://andwecoulddance.wordpress.com/2011/02/06/in-praise-of-celtics-performance-today
Stuff what touches my life. In praise of: Celtic’s performance today. Scottish Cup 5th round. Ibrox stadium, Glasgow. Rangers 2 Celtic 2. It’d be a long and largely uninteresting story to explain why I’m a Celtic fan, but today’s performance left me proud to call myself one. So often, Old Firm encounters are characterised by passion and aggression, and whilst today’s match contained plenty of both, unusually there was also an excellent display of football on show. Despite being a man down for the majorit...
