I like putting on Nice French songs here, but occasionally it's worth getting a taste of the other French songs:


Eat your hearts out Butthole Surfer fans.

:) I'm not really a fun. Just like that one song. But, yes they have catchy name. :) Well I'm sure no gay band wouldn't call it self that way. Gay bands have names like ... I dunno Scissor Sisters

And those god damn Scots make some really good music. :) They have many very good bands disproportionately to size of country. Le petit you are Scot?

If there's something inside that you want to say
Say it out loud it'll be okay

Swedes have cold climate too and what they beget to the world? ABBA :)

UK overall have a lot of good bands. I mean, almost all top rock bands are from there. It's hard to name 10 great banda which ain't from Britain. Language is limiting factor, but still there is whole North America, Australia and few more places in the game.

Australia have AC/DC there is some American bands and then disproportionately to number of citizens so many Brits (with Scots making good share)

Maybe more France and Italy for high fashion, but yes styles for youth was copied from US/UK.

They say that there was a time when blue jeans (levis 501) was a big thing. If you had a pair you would certainly get more pussy. :)

Actually I met fair number of Scots (and Scottish girls) on EXIT music festival here in Serbia. Most of the were punks (positive)

I would say that we (Scots and Serbs) have comun mentality. Much more similarity between us then between Serbs and Englishmen, especially those from south.

Yep they are good, watched them live many times. They play Irish folk - rock influenced by The Pogues.

The name comes from group of eastern Celts who lived in this area until arrival of Slavic tribes in 6th and 7th century.

They mixed with Celtic population so we have genetic connections to. Old name of Belgrade was Singidunum which was ancient Celtic city.
