Summary

Lost Immortals Ep 101 

with Roy Stannard, Howard Popeck and Matt Staples

Burgess Hill Radio Sunday 28th February 2021 5-7pm on 103.8fm and http://www.burgesshillradio.co.uk

This week one of our FB group chose songs to remember a loved friend who has passed.

By  a strange juxtaposition of the planets and other elements many of the  songs this week have to do with love, loss and fading memory.

4Keus  and Sidike Diabate observe that ‘It is God who gives’, Richard Thompson  that ‘Good things happen to bad people’; the Godfathers sing that ‘I’m  Lost and then I’m Found’; Lyle Lovett reflects that ‘Promises’ sometimes  go unmet and Johnny Cash reflects that it’s ‘In your mind’.

Neil  Diamond philosphises on death in ‘And the the grass will pay no mind’;  Carol Kidd sings a jazz lament ‘When I Dream’ and Joe Brown makes a  ukelele weep in ‘I’ll see you in my dreams’ and we finish with The  streets ‘Dry Your Eyes’ – arguably the tenderest song ever from a rap  artist.

I'm someone who doesn't like parameters, barriers or fences. I'll try and climb over them, burrow under them or just pretend they don't exist - until they don't. Sometimes I'll write about the mind in a poetic way, or poetry with neural undertones, or I'll proselytise endlessly about my favourite new band - or one of the old ones. My Blog will give you the keys to the kingdom. A kingdom with no borders, no expectations and, therefore, no failure.. Because I am endlessly empathetic with people, their motivation, their behaviour,their problems and their quest for knowledge, I work with the pioneering Brighton-based homeless, vulnerable women and disempowered school students charity Off The Fence Trust that has tried to redress the equality deficit for over two decades. I produce, host and promote two radio shows a week: The Whole Nine Yards Sundays 3-5pm on Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM (www.midsussexradio.co.uk/listen) - and Lost Immortals on Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM on Sundays 5-7pm.
