Theme: Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin On Air: Frank

No overall theme to this show, just a lot of random ideas strung together: - I had to play the band "Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin" after Boris Yeltsin passed away last week. I also played The Russian Futurists for the same reason. - The Stephin Merrit songs comes from a release called "Plague Songs" that has "10 Songs - 10 Plagues - 10 Artists". - When I found a song called "Sideways" by American band Let's Go Sailing I had to play the song by Men Without Hats with the same name (but it wasn't a cover song like I had hoped). - Both Peter Elkas and Joel Plaskett are playing the Starlight on May 24th. - Memphis is one of the bands playing this year's Hillside Festival, more on this later TALK - Theme The Sweet Homewreckers - Wild America (C) The Salteens - Time You Have Been Wasting (C) The Yokocasinos - Loose Cannon Hera - Don't Play This Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin - Oregon Girl TALK Skeeter Davis - Let Me Get Close To You Francoise Hardy - On Dit De Lui Lucky Soul - One Kiss Don't Make A Summer Belle and Sebastian - Legal Man Stephin Merrit - The Meaning of Lice TALK The Russian Futurists - The Science Of The Seasons (C) LCD Soundsystem - Someone Great B.
