Usually when older bands make a comeback, they look pathetic and you can picture thgem playing clubs, bingo halls and holiday camps.....Hi De Hi!

However, I saw these guts in Tiffany's in Glasgow in the mid to late seventies...and I liked them then. Today in 2012, I would actually say they're be...

Well seen this isn't being aired on RTE at prime viewing time. The Irish people may be tempted to rise up against oppression.........AGAIN!

Hey. There should be more polis with a sense of fun! Brilliant! Jim Taggart would be proud! LOL

Nice job folks. I was born in Birgidale Road.

I'm googling all morning trying to get someone to repair my unit. It displays CD error and will neither let me load or eject CDs. I've had it stripped and removed the one CD that was in there.

Is there anywhere I can send this for repair preferably in Ireland but the UK would do.

Well, they're all real ghosts now. :(

@shaun41 I'm 50 but I reckon Brian has alot to do with the way I turned out as an adult. You couldn't value Camberwick Green etc and grow up to become a criminal. Thanks Brian!

I love the end track in this movie but it doesn't appear to be on the soundtrack. Always annoys me when it's on tv cos the feckers always talk over it. Grrrrrrr

@kevjards I was a lover of Genesis before Gabriel left and they became a backing band for Phil Collins. They were legendary till that point. I first heard Marillion in the early 80s on the radio and I had no idea who they were but my first thought was Genesis are back. (They had left a big hole i...

@laughingdoll I think the original is much older. Check out Maurice Chevalier's version.

@salamehkhaled92 It's the theme from the movie Crimson Tide

@PooPoo2U Hollywood likes to write out everybody's involvement in WW2 except themselves, Germany and Japan and Americans are happy to accept it as history. I simply educate. If you have no positive contribution to make to an ongoing discussion then I suggest you mind your own beeswax.

First heard her whistle one dark wet night in York 2 years ago and I was mesmerised. Haunting. It sounds like she's calling from another world and connecting with my soul...The Ghost Train! There's not another sounds like her! (Pity she's got a bloke's name. LOL)

I was born in Birgidale Road when there was a working farm across the road back in the early 60s. I remember staring out over the veranda. Recognised Arnprior Street too! Good to see the renovation. The Castlemilk people were always the salt of the earth so the renewal was well deserved.

Homesick now! :(

@torreja2000 They've just had a big disaster in Japan and the west has given a lot of aid. Perhaps we should withold the aid till the feckers stop. Like world war 2, it will take a few more deaths at home to make them behave.

Bad news for some of you posters here. Do not listen to Puff The Magic Dragon! There are no such things as dragons....or magic for that matter....it's just an illusion! Sorry if that rained on your parade!

Reminds me of my older sister when I was a child in the 60s. She died on Christmas Eve 3 years ago this year.

It's available on Amazon:

@SpinningDust I know. I live in Clare and we call it a Hurley and the ball a slitter!

LOL I just call it a hurling bat to annoy the Irish!

A free site but plagued by trolls, scammers and incompetent moderators.

Pity Genesis went from being iconic to being Phil Collins backing band. I'd rather they had disbanded at their height though Marillion did pick up the torch for a while in the 80s!

Glad to share my hometown with guys so talented!

It was Glam Rock. The lead singer was the brother of Mark McManus who played Taggart the tough Glasgow detective. This was the music fashion at the time and had nothing to do with what an ignorant clown below called queers. Had that been true, they would have openly been called that at the time a...

His jazz background shone through in his wonderful unique music! I had ni idea he was so old!
