Theme from Nick Lowe

l love the sound of breaking glass
Especially when I'm lonely
l need the noises of destruction
When there's nothing new
Oh nothing new, sound of breaking glass

I'd sort of been pondering what my next upload to Circadian Shift: The Outpost was going to be. Listening to internet radio this afternoon provided me with my inspiration.

I love the sound of breaking glass
Deep into the night
l love the sound of its condition
Flying all around
Oh all around, sound of breaking glass
Nothing new, sound of breaking glass

There was some group named Dogs Die in Hot Cars doing a guest DJ set on WOXY. I know nothing about the group, but they did spin all sorts of cool "old" stuff -- Kate Bush, Kraftwerk, Squeeze, Elvis Costello, and Nick Lowe.

Oh all around, sound of breaking glass
Nothin new, sound of breakin glass
Safe at last sound of breaking glass

I posted another Nick Lowe MP3 on CS: The Outpost a few months back (it's gone now). The man really knows his way around a pop song, crafting sublime tunes with fine instrumentation and production values that often belie the darker nature of the lyrics.

I love the sound of breaking glass
Deep into the night
I Iove the work on it can do
Oh a change of mind
Oh change of mind,
sound of breaking glass
All around, sound of breaking glass

So, without further ado, here's some new tunage for your downloading and listening pleasure:

Enjoy.

Nothing new, sound of breaklng glass
Breaking glass, sound of breaking glass
Sound of breaking glass

_The DDinHC seems to be one of these 'new' new wave acts. They had a sorta-recent single 'Apples & Oranges' and I've also seen their CD showcased on the Feature Wall at Sonic Booom (Bloor & Bathurst).
