Fink – Pretty Little Thing
A lifetime ago I saw a strange English band called Fink performing at a hole in the wall bar somewhere in London and became instantly hooked. I bought some of their music and was fortunate enough to see them perform again when they visited South Africa. Over the years, Fink has become one of my favourite bands to listen to (which is evident when you look at my Last.FM profile). With a strong focus on acoustic guitars and the odd didge thrown in for good measure, this is music that I can connect to.
This is track called”Pretty Little Thing” and personally, I think it’s one of the sexiest songs I’ve ever heard.

Tommy Kaira GTR spoils my year.
Just when I thought that I had finally made peace with the fact that I won’t be getting a GTR this year, Tommy Kaira and his band of crazy tuners and designers have come along spoiled my year. You see, I was over the GTR. I really was. We’d moved on and were past the awkwardness, the blushing and the foot shuffling. It didn’t matter if I happened to see her in the street – we were cool. None of that look away and pretend I didn’t see you business. But now, she’s got a new outfit and I think she’s more beautiful than ever. I can’t stop thinking about her, even when I’m driving my current car. This is wrong and I know I should stop it, but I just, well, can’t.
But can you blame me – I mean just look at her! She’s codenamed ‘silverwolf’ and I’m willing to bet that her bark is every bit as mean as her bite.
