This is from Cat Steven's soundtrack for Harold and Maude and is one of the two songs which was written just for the movie, one of my all time favorites. MP3 File yousendit
Firstly, thanks to cubikmusik and guinnessdj for the offer to put together this mix. Being a fan of what Colin has been doing with the show over the past few months, the offer was a little bit daunting at first to be honest. I was unsure if anyone would be interested in my tastes but I guess everyone here just shares my passion for good music, regardless of genres, styles and boundaries. I think this...

Devendra Banhart Before listening to this latest album, I had developed a semi-irrational fear/hatred of Devendra Banhart which had led me to avoid his more recent output. There were several reasons for this. Firstly, there is the fact that he looks a lot like Charles Manson. Secondly, his early work sounds not dissimilar to Charles Manson's, which is not in itself a bad thing, but paired with the...
Yusuf Islam and band rehearsing in MV3 for Radio 2's Ken Bruce Show. But it's not Ken's voice I hear, it's Zoe's . Next up it's Snow Patrol on Radio 1 with Fearne Cotton in MV4. It's the first time I've been to the Maida Vale Studios and while it's brilliant to get to see and hear today's artists rehearse and perform, it's also a great opportunity to sneak around. This is on the ground-floor corridor:...
British reggae star MAXI PRIEST has been arrested for allegedly assaulting his ex-girlfriend. The musician, who enjoyed hits with a cover of Cat Stevens' Wild World and a duet with Shaggy, reportedly attacked a former lover after she caught him in a car with another woman. Priest was taken into custody by cops in London over allegations he pushed his ex to th…
Kasabian win best album at Q Awards and Lily Allen celebrates best song prize by lighting up in no-smoking ballroom Kasabian, Muse and Lily Allen won the prizes but the mouthy, bickering spirit of Oasis still lingered over the Q Awards, which were held in central London today. The Gallagher brothers have had a long and loving relationship with both the awards and Q magazine . Attendees of past bashes...

One famous lady that refused to pose for any pictures and instead decided to sneak in through...
I was feeling all Cat Stevens the other day. You know sort of half-stoned, staring out a late October sky, thinking, “Sure is warm for late October.” It was a feeling though, a passing wind that came up and across my shoulders and then took off down the alley. It was a Cat Stevens feeling, [...]
Miike Snow is not a man. Miike Snow is, in fact, two men: the band alias of Swedish duo Christian Karlsson and Pontus Winnberg, whose CD sleeves are annoyingly damage-prone cut-outs of the mythical jackalope. The content is equally unusual: a sly juxtaposition of ultra-melodic pop with sombre lyrics that's as spiritual as Cat Stevens one moment and strutting about like Britney Spears the next. This...
Even if you watch as little TV as I do, you tend to see the same adverts. Sundays I put on my sports hat and I have had my fill of mobile ads. The one with Cat Stevens' "If You...

I always think of Carly Simon when I think of anticipation - and it wasn't till just yesterday that I found out that song was about waiting for her first date with Cat Stevens . The song has always spoken right to the heart of me, despite the fact that the lyrics are a bit cliched and that it makes many people of my generation think of Heinz ketchup . I wrote a composition in high school about how...
