We love your suggestions for Disctruction – This is the feature where we destroy that one track you cannot stand. A variety of music has so far been brought to our attention.

From Vivaldi who packaged all Four of the Seasons, to the inappropriately timed Club Tropicana by Wham! With its free drinks and swimming pools and George Micheal falling off a lilo, time and time again, with perfect hair. This was in the early 80′s when most people struggled to put coal on the plate…

And then there’s this stuff the bank plays at you down the phone. It’s easy to spot, it sounds like posh people in a country garden, being recorded with a mobile phone and then shat out of guttering. And, at the end of it all, you get to talk to the bank – what’s not to like?

Vivaldi – Four Seasons

Sincerely, the weirdest music video I’ve ever seen…

Brian Adams – Cloud Number 9

‘Either it had some kind of profound spiritual meaning… Or he just thought sod it let’s get shit loads of milk a floating girl and a massive dog, I reckon the latter, the milk drinking scene was really, really creepy’ – Siobhán

The milk scene is especially disturbing. Sorry about the advert you may have to endure before the milk-porn begins.

It Gets Worse…

Mick Hucknell might love the thought of giving hope to you but I reckon he just sounds a bit, you know,  messianic. Matt suggested this track and says it makes him feel as if he’s been touched in a ‘wrong way’. Trust Hucknell when he sings ‘Even if I know we can’t make it’ – He’s right, because however you felt at the beginning of the relationship, one day you’ll wake up to this:

Fairground – Simply Red

Here’s the original video if you want to remind yourself – It hurts me to drive traffic to the advert youtube will play at you before the fun starts. Not because of the 30 seconds it will cost you in time, nor the banal life draining messages they’ll lever into your head via the fulcrum of Hucknell. What really bothers me is that, between you and I, we might do something that benefits him. Ah well, in for a penny, in for a pound.

It’s the voice on this last worthy candidate, thanks Peter, and the words it sings – I think you’ll like our proactive approach…
