Love songs of the 60s and 70s

While cities up and down the UK make their bid to host the Eurovision Song Contest 2023, Sadiq Khan has insisted London should ‘clearly’ be the top pick. The United Kingdom will host Eurovision for the first time in 25 years after Ukraine was deemed unable to stage the contest due to the ongoing Russian invasion. Sam Ryder’s epic performance of his single Spaceman came in second place to Ukraine’s Kalush Orchestra in May this year, and subsequently the UK was picked to host the contest instead. While Glasgow and Birmingham remain favourites to clinch welcoming Eurovision, and even market town Darlington has put itself forward as the ‘underdogs’, Khan still thinks it’s ‘got to be’ London and said it’s been a ‘long time coming’ with the city last hosting in 1977. ‘I’m really excited Eurovision is coming to the UK and, actually, whether it’s in another part of the UK or London it’s really important that we do Ukraine proud,’ he told Evening Standard. ‘It’s a … [Read more...] about Eurovision Song Contest 2023 has ‘clearly got to be held in London’ claims mayor Sadiq Khan

A mental health nurse who was jailed for taking her NHS-funded 'company car' to a car wash after her son shot and wounded a love rival in the back seat has been struck off. Patricia Dean called in sick at work to get her Mercedes deep-cleaned after her 31-year-old son Vincenzo De Falco shot Jonathan Smith in the leg at point blank range with a shotgun, while buying cannabis from him in January 2019. As police hunted her son, Dean, a specialist mental health nurse at North Manchester General Hospital, had the vehicle undergo a full valet at a car wash to remove traces of Mr Smith's blood. Mr Smith, who had been in a relationship with De Falco’s girlfriend, was found dumped in the street in Rochdale, Greater Manchester, and underwent 56 hours of surgical procedures which ultimately led to doctors having to amputating the leg just below the knee. Police later recovered the Mercedes C350 Sport E car and found traces of his blood on the seals around the rear passenger … [Read more...] about Nurse, 60, who was jailed for taking NHS-leased Mercedes to a car wash after her son shot a rival in the back seat is struck off

After months of stashing extra money away, you finally buy that pair of nice headphones. Or, maybe you step up DJ equipment for the first time. Or, you connect to a speaker in Best Buy. Whatever the scenario, the question remains: What's the first song you decide to play when you encounter new audio gear to test how it sounds? Everyone has a go-to song. Employees at Spotify even have a playlist of songs for this exact purpose. It's called " Songs to Test Headphones With ." Continuing to dwell on this idea for myself and my own testing eventually piqued my curiosity. What songs do other people use to test speakers? I sought answers from notable industry movers and shakers, and this is what they said. (Some responses have been edited for clarity.) Questlove (Musician, Producer, Filmmaker and Author) His response to me on Twitter : I test speakers DJn: Micheal Jackson's "Baby Be Mine" is my 'pop' tester (clean firm mix). "A Milli" [by Lil Wayne] is my compression endurance song. … [Read more...] about Songs Questlove, Goo Goo Dolls and others use to test audio gear

On the final day of Liverpool’s Premier League season, the home players formed a guard of honour and the Kop rose to salute the departing striker hailed as a club legend. Out stepped Divock Origi, deservedly milking the applause of 55,000 spectators for being the master of match-winning cameos, initiator of Barcelona's Champions League decline, and regular slayer of Everton's derby ambitions. In retrospect, Origi's fond farewell should have had second billing. It is the transfer of Sadio Mane that will truly represent the end of one of the greatest Liverpool careers of the modern era. Unfortunate timing prevented Mane receiving the personal Kop ovation he deserves and will belatedly get should Liverpool be paired with Bayern on a European night in the near future. Mane was the first game-changing signing for Jurgen Klopp at Anfield, as pivotal to the start of his reign as Ian St John to Bill Shankly - a fearless all-action striker whose signing was the catalyst for future … [Read more...] about Farewell Sadio Mane, one of Liverpool’s greatest players of the modern era

WHEN the weather heats up, the best desk fans are a lifesaver. Keeping you cool and comfortable while you work or sleep, they're portable, adjustable and relatively quiet. We've rounded up some of the best models available to buy now and even put a few of the best-known brands to the test. What to look for in a desk fan Firstly, consider the size of the fan you want. As it's designed to sit on your desk, it should be compact and relatively lightweight so it can be easily moved if needed. Almost all desk fans are adjustable, so you can point the breeze in a specific direction and reduce or increase the wind speed with ease. It's also useful to be able to tilt the fan head in different directions. The speed settings are worth considering, too. If you plan to have the fan right in front of you, it needs to be powerful enough to cool you down but not so powerful that it'll dry out your eyes and give you a chill. And then there’s the noise level. Most modern fans are relatively … [Read more...] about 14 best desk fans in the UK 2022, including Dyson and John Lewis
