I want it that way - Backstreet Boys, which CBC is playing because it was released on this date in 1999.

Any time I hear this I can only think of Jake Peralta in Brooklyn Nine Nine, in what must surely be one of the best cold opens of all time.

Billy Roberts wrote 'Hey Joe', not Jimi.Mr.Roberts sold the copyright to Dino Valenti aka Chester Powers,one time member of Quicksilver Messenger Service, he allegedly wrote Everybody Get Together,a popular anthem in the late 60's.Hey Joe was also recorded by Love,The Byrds,The Leaves,Tim Rose and later in the mid eighties by Lick The Tins.I hope Billy Roberts received some kind of royalties......he's not the first to experience that practice.......

... or maybe Len Partridge. Or Niela Miller. And then Pete Seeger got involved. So much drama! You learn something new every day.

I always assumed it was Jimi. I guess Hendrix is just one of those artists that, once he's done it, it becomes his song.

Song: Porchlight

Nobody does death and despair like William.

[DzM]

Song: If You Were Only Here Tonight

A melancholy song. I always wonder what it is that he would not have done if only you were here tonight.

You were not alone in listening yesterday. The last few days have been so much fun.

Also loving the fact that Steve Bray, the "Stop Brexit" man, was playing the Benny Hill theme through his speakers on Westminster's College Green yesterday, clearly heard in the background of various TV news interviews with annoying politicians.

I think the fact that he was playing in response to a special request from Hugh Grant added to the joy!
