Did I ever mention how wonderful Regina Spektor’s voice is? Human of the Year gets more and more powerful everytime I hear it. A morning of concentration and I’m free for summer. The new Wordpress release is nicknamed Getz, in honour of the tenor saxophonist who took every opportunity to chat up any attractive woman around.

We’ll be poking our toes around Warsaw in twelve days now. I’ll totally use Mogwai song titles for posts along the way – We’re No Here, Yes! I Am a Long Way From Home and A Cheery Wave From Stranded Youngsters are a few (though hopefully not the last, I suppose). Smooth connection: These are some great Mogwai sessions. Download My Father, My King and You Don’t Know Jesus if you only want a taster. I have no idea how long they’ll remain available. And go see them live if you get the chance; I can’t think of any band more intense.
