Things You Do For Love


This song is the sound of summer come early, a brand new tune from Balearic overlord Apiento. Things You Do For Love is built around a very Italo- sounding ascending bassline, a 100 bpm shuffle and a pair of vocals, one soulful and one French. This is very easy indeed, and very European.

As I mentioned Europe, the ongoing shitstorm taking place in the UK parliament hit new heights this week. There's a part of me that really wants Article 50 extended for the sole reason of seeing the right wing nutjob Brexiters frothing at the mouth about it, that dickhead MP with the French surname making up some bollocks about his Dad not fighting the Germans for this, Tim Martin spitting cheap beer all over a branch of one of his pubs and Rees-Mogg tweeting something about his nanny in Latin while spluttering about parliamentary procedure. Little wins are sometimes the most satisfying.

  1. Rees-Mogg. The very mention of his name raises the blood pressure. Luckily it's tempered in this instance by a very nice tune.

  2. "Rees-Mogg tweeting something about his nanny in Latin". You'll keep me smiling all day with that one, brilliant SA, thanks. (If only it weren't so close to the truth)

  3. Mark Francois and Andrew Bridgen have replaced Rees-Mogg in the raising of my blood pressure stakes.
