today with the guardian is a free cd with 5 tracks –
feeder – just the way i’m feeling
moby – love of strings
goldfrapp – strict machine
moloko – forever more
damien rice – cold water
i’ve never heard cold water before but it is a stunning track, hauntingly beautiful, definitely worth the 55 pence i paid for the paper!!!! here’s a line from the song…
Cold, cold water surrounds me now
And all I’ve got is your hand
Lord, can you hear me now?
Or am I lost
you should have his album ‘O’ – in fact, everyone should have it, it’s stunning – £8.99 at cd-wow!
what’s the album called?….
yes, you should have “O” (oh). brilliant. Daniel Miller hates it. there’s a reason to buy it! 😉
we saw Damien play last week:

amazing.
Well I rushed out (OK got my friend to rush out) and bought the Guardian. No CD! Was it in yesterday’s issue perhaps?
no – it was today’s – maybe it was just a london issue?….
Another example of London’s cultural hegemony??
it’s the place to be 🙂
it must have been a london thing – i didnt get it either.
here’s a link for the album

it is so good you will feel like putting a tenner in an envelope and sending it to mr rice because he is clearing not charging enough for it!
The whole album is amazing! Think he’s doing a tour some time next year too.
