It’s not a game anymore, it’s gone too FAR!”

Hi Matt
How about Unlovable by the Smiths. Thanks!
Got to love Gimme Shelter by the Sisters. This week, maybe try to fit in Red Lorry Yellow Lorry – Nothing Wrong. Thanks!
Any song by “Frozen Autumn”. Greeting from Chicago!
Great show! Loved “Same Old Scene” by Ministry! Thanks for making my week.
Tonight’s show had the best line-up. Nice finds on deep cuts from Cocteau Twins, Danse Society, Depeche Mode, Sisters of Mercy, Cure.
Keep the Danse Society coming: their songs are hard to find.
Cheers, mate.
The Sisters version of Gimme Shelter is better than the original. The grimness and despair of war come through much stronger. Although I dig the female background vocals on the Stones version. Thanks Matt-
