This was sent to 300+ radio stations today did you hear it? Great, if not then listen again, I won't spoil it if you don't know the scores look away now.
Was working across the sports desk all afternoon yesterday, it was a lot of fun. First time back since the opening day of the soccer season and I was drafted in pretty last minute.
Couldn't have come at a better time after the last week and my comrades were really positive about my performance on quite a personal level.
Its thrown up some nice confusion that I should give this all a push again, I've been sending out a few demo's and this one will serve a purpose.
You're so fine, you're so good I need you. And I think that if you thought about it you'd know you need me too. Cause I want you.. I want you.. I want you.. I want you.. And if I could I'd squeeze your hand so tight every knuckle would crack I'd wrap my arms around you and snap every bone in your back.
Cause I want you.. I want you..
You're so smart, you break my heart. I like you, and I think that if you thought about it you'd know know you'd like me too. Cause I want you.. I want you.. I want you.. I want you.. I want you! I want you. I want you.
If I could I'd kiss your lips so hard your entire face would bruise Put your name and blood on everyone and make the evening news I'd chain your hips together so that you could never leave. I'd make you love me so much that you'd ask permission to breathe.
You're so.. fine. (I think about you all of the time It's driving me out of mind) You're so cool.. ( ??????? grow beside me like a fire) I need you... (I'll give you everything I got).
Cause I want you.. I want you.. I want you.. I want you.. I want you.. I want you..
You're so smart (There is a you, there is a me - together for eternity) You break my heart (If I didn't have you I don't know what I would do) I like you (I know you like me from the start)
Cause I want you.. I want you.. I want you. I want you.. I want you.. I want you. I want you.. I want you.. I want y o u.
It's up to you, It's up to you. It's up to you, It's up to you. It's up to you, It's up to you. It's up to you, It's up to you.
Summer Camp who've just released the delicious Welcome to Condale on the Magnifique Moshi Moshi record label dropped in to speak with us on the Olympic Show!
My heart is still #25c after seeing them live at EFES on Thursday so to get spoken vocals just to me, and Andy, and all the listeners, both of them was sit down or i'll faint Fantastic.
We spoke about the new record and what its all about? Jeremy's previous Olympic Parade as Surrey Table Tennis Champion 2007 - 2009 & the specific belonging to and from us all of 88 88 88 88 1988.
They are back in the spring to Rock the Scala. Welcome to Condale is Out Now Twitter: @Summercampband http://www.facebook.com/summercampmusic wearesummercamp.com
The Olympic Show is a sporting festivity of Music and Culture, we go out every Saturday Live from 1pm on 101.4 ONFM & repeated on Hoxton FM when we get round to it.
A lively exchange as Brentford battled and attacked the league leaders Charlton who leave Griffen Park with all 3 points after a Bradley Wright-Phillips goal was all that separated the sides.
Brentford matched their opponents and looked on top in the first half hitting the post and seeing a header creep just wide on the stroke of half time.
A lengthy stoppage due to an injury to Shalem Logan left the Bee's napping at the re-start and they were slow to react to a low fired cross which bobbled across the face of goal and was slotted home by Wright-Phillips.
Uwe Roslers men continued to probe and press but couldnt find the break through up against a solid Charlton defense.
The homeside can feel proud of their performance but it's finished Brentford 0 1 Charlton.

Simply outstanding, with a set that started in the crowd and a storming gig to make the adoring fans proud.
Shhhhh was the instruction from the switched on secensters at the back who'd seen Elizabeth and Jeremy making their way down the stairs at the back of the room strumming and singing un mic'd and visually alive.
After taking to the stage the sound then blasted through and fitted the 80's echo'd EFES snooker hall we were all playing ball in.
A visual backdrop saw short snaps of drippy high school photo's and classic movie clips which were in sync with the feeling of the songs and the track lengths too.
The irresistible Dalston audience was far to much for Beth who took to the crowd a further two times goading and singing up and close, encouraging inviting almost demanding to be touched with spark and shine to match her firework flash dress.
Touching feeling was formally requested after the gig where the band then hung out at the back signing snaps and continuing what was a hugely incredible performance and by a long shot the hottest heat ever felt in November.
The album Welcome to Condale is out now on Moshi Moshi
Brentford welcome Charlton to Griffen Park this afternoon on a run of three wins in their last four outings.
The Addicts boast similar form with five wins on the bounce and a points tally that see's them top of League one by that same round number.
The last time these sides met the Bee's ran out 3 nil winners in the Johnson's Paint Trophy, the last London derby at Griffen Park saw Leighton Orient thrashed 5-0 in August.
UweRosler's men will be hoping for more of the same this afternoon.
I have the power to build a time machine and its powered by fresh fine indie rock n roll with some wholesome classic tunes to steer us through any emergency stop.
Pippa Marias release their new single Shoot Me Down today at 11:11 and will join us for a conversation + you can hear the new song here.
The Swedish / Dalston 4 piece are also headlining Club NME at Koko tonight so get down and check them live.
We're also looking ahead to the One Day Festival taking place tonight at The Dolls House in Liverpool Street – it’s the snuggest sexiest new venue so of course Hoxton FM is right in there.

Went Reading with John Simms Jim's last morrow - that's last Saturday for the elk's @ the back.
Cribs, Libertines, Arcade Fire! Gap Shite Anthems - 2010 was pretty fuxking erect with girth and vigour, 2011 on paper was rather limp?
Pigeon Detectives for starters - forgot how many sounds they had catchy back in the happy shine sort of Zero 7 time. Chucking mic stands, crowd surf and coercing - the front man really flung their feeling onto the bleary 12:51 crowd & we was delighted.
Line up snapped up and on the crowds sung - John Simms Jim's kind of twisted the plot this year I was to busy with my ego to notice - our weekend retreat had turned into Old Boys +1.
Was all right I'm pretty sociable at times and at other times just @ this and that, this and that was where they the old boy's was at. 1 of these fellows was wearing the most modest of attire and another one wet themselves? It was fun, very fun but from many steps back.
16:00 kicked off and I couldn't wait to get the flip off the pitch and into the Kills who did Kill it. Mostly new record stuff but that's pretty good and just this most magical version of the tear heartsome Baby Says.
Baby Say's she's dying to meet you, #uhhhhhh
They finished with Alison Clutching the mic in adoring silent applause for the crowd, famished flat out foxline and fancy, her silence and heavy breathing was so erotic for still light out British Summer Time.
Steve arrived and a bit of decorum was restored, they found the lost boys along with the right side of the festival in very fruitful fashion. Pulp were beyond goodness, 108% out of a solid 100. This is hardcore, F.E.E.L.I.N.G C.A.L.L.E.D L.O.V.E the dertiest I Spy Jarvis with impecible stage moves and song lines sublime. They are Fuxking Hardcore - Headlining the Leeds leg following night and really perhaps the top of their shop right now?
Hardcore.
Time in between for a quick retreat and then back in for the main event, the showdown, the curtain crawler, the birth parents of the New Rock n Roll Revolution 10 years almost to the day - Stroke.
They changed music, they took indie and made it fucking guitar real with soul, cool, edge, substance, sex, sunglasses. Angles is really good, if you listen to it on shuffle, let the songs decide how they want to be heard and enjoy the start to most of them & perhaps find something else to do towards the end.
Two kinds of happiness - Stroke proceeded then joined by Pulp? Yeah what a mix, what a fucking mix and then thier song choice? Take a seat please - Cars Just What I Needed!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QckDSIizbqQ
We found our own after party round a campfire, Lost Boy's went silent disco but that was never gunner be loud enough for Grimmit and I. We strode through the campsite for the best looking collective and found ourselves some chairs. Best Band was Stroke Pulp with the cars cover, the best song was American Pie by first I then Grimmit + our campfire crew.
And that's it, its the end of the review / post - get your ticket for 2012 it'll be larger then you could expect and its just nuff nonsense free Awesome Arcadia Fire Fun.
Watch the Stroke / Pulp cover under darkness alight here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QckDSIizbqQ
Another rousing speech,
I can hear the slow clap as the congregation leave the band stand.
This then this and other tangent plus more ideas and no real end solution,
Hi keep smiling, the cracked make up is it still your shade?
Shading away and fading and procrastinating
Making a mockery of the whole sound out station.
I’m not the only one whose lost their patience.
The end is in sight
This squalid ruined shite
Its ground and pathetic
Night after night.
Forgo another and trundle on
Excuse after excuse as we all plan our songs.
Guest and favours and rock n roll lime lights
Weren’t you on tomorrow? Same fucking plight.
I’ve walked away already
My heads gone
Planning the next one
Is a solemn carry on.
The spark is still hear
But I’m bitter and fear
To carry on in this reverse
Is the wrong fucking gear.
Every single Monday we wipe the slate clean
Give the losers the second chance and pathetically fear.
Losing what little respect already gone
Signal is not working, sorry it was timed all wrong.
Make It Happen
Its up to you
Stepping out for the sunlight
Commanding right through.
With a leap of faith you can always jump back
But unless you put a foot in the semi direction
Then your never going to spur on any emotion.
An that’s whats now void from this shame of a shambles.
Beer lovers are raising their glasses to the arrival of the first brewery in Hackney for more than 20 years.
Business partners Jules Whiteway and Ian Burgess are opening London Fields Brewery to the public for the first time this bank holiday weekend.
The micro-brewery under railway arches in Helmesley Place, off Mentmore Terrace, is believed to be the first commercial brewery operating in Hackney since the closure of the Pitfield Brewery in Pitfield Street, Hoxton, in the early 1990s.
Jules, 39, who left behind a gardening business in Gloucester to start the new venture, said: “It is good to take up the mantle and continue the tradition of brewing in east London, moving it on to the next generation.”
Ian, 34, already runs Climpson & Sons coffee shop in Broadway Market.
The pair have been taking training courses and will now be supplying homes and a handful of pubs nearby with their new brews.
Everything about this record is true, sublime and dictatorially precise.
With everything from the record Kick Up the Fire and Let the Flames Break, all carry so much meaning, force, devotion and raw energy.
To open with such a subtle starting rousing crescendo introduction to what is, has been, and always will be - the most defining record of my life.
Libertines, Strokes, Gun's N Roses all feature but TCTC really took me, held me and still do - at gunpoint.
And now more than ever - you can't keep making the same mistakes. Do I dare open the show with it this week? It's included for sure, perhaps with this eulogy.
And so it has to change
The notebook's now in pieces
Words we'll never sing
I know you'll say i've simply jumped the gun
And that they've won
But you can't keep making the same mistakes
You see i've had this thought
It took its time in coming
But now won't be denied
I'd always gone about these things all wrong
But not this song
Coz you can't keep making the same mistakes
No you can't keep making the same mistakes
Can't jump ship just yet
There's no one at the wheel
Someone has to steer
Get a hold of yourself
Keep your head there's no time to waste
You'll see it soon enough
But all is not forgotten
And now's no time for tears
Coz though that boy has died this one still lives
And now there's life
And a chance to make up for all those mistakes
But please don't get me wrong
Coz everything was honest
True and from the heart
There's still the same old hang ups so don't fret
Its not safe yet
And who knows there's always time to screw up again
But maybe we'll be cool
Coz you were made an offer
You could not refuse
You made me come alive and see my face
See my grace
And we grow or do we just haul it around?
With a broken heart and constant misplacing of words in sentences the music was a nice accompanyment to my deathly hallow.
I didn't die but choaked several times which is more than enough to prop up Shoreditch Radio's Most Played Show!
Local News all coming from the East London Lines this week which were delvered to my door!

The delights you graced us with were just awesome on so many occasions. Breaking your leg for Arsenal to clinch what was perhaps the Best comeback at The grove 2-2 against Barcelona.
You are so unique in your style of play and reflecting in this moment now, you've made our last 8 seasons delightful dynamic in many ways.
All the best, you'll always be a Gooner and I will continue to follow your gracious soccer with Espania and a bit of your dirty new club.

She used her fame to good fortune gathering people across the sphere to do good in Hackney, Clapham, Hoxton Square.
It was lovely listening to your record on Wednesday and too see the kindness and generosity you offered to London was second to none.

Whirring blew into my life around 3 years ago? Perhaps sooner, it was re-released a few times before the EP 'Balloon Called Moaning' found my ipod pocket around this time last year.
8 tracks of screeeeeching screeeaming solid sounds. Tracked the release of their debut record - The Big Roar and rushed out on the day of release to pick it up.
Iterviewed Ritzy over the phone for Shoreditch Radio and followed their trail of destruction from Lovebox to the Borderline, Glastonbury and Reading next weekend.
Was pondering just the other day - how the fuck are they still standing after a worldly tour spanning most of this year, when could we expect some newness?
And as if by Magic the New Musical Express did fortune fill my thoughts.
Nighty Night:
From NME
The Joy Formidable have said they have over 15 songs written for their second album.
The Welsh trio, who released their debut full length LP 'The Big Roar' in January, have said they hope to have the album out by next year after they complete their touring commitments.
Speaking to NME backstage at Osheaga festival in Montreal, singer Ritzy Bryan said that the writing process was constantly ongoing and that they had lots to work with. She said:
We started the second album ages ago. We write all the time, even when we're on the road, because we record ourselves, we build collections of songs quite quickly. We have about 15 or 20 already, but lots of other bits too, there'll be lots to choose from when we eventually sit down and sort it out.
Asked whether they would look to avoid the lengthy build up to 'The Big Roar' and aim for a quick release, she replied:
I think we'd like next year, it'll definitely be ready, we've probably written the second, third and fourth record with the amount of stuff that we've got, so I'd say next year is definitely realistic.
The band play their biggest UK tour to date later this year, which is likely to bring the promotion of 'The Big Roar' to an end. They band joked that they plan to "shoot each other out of canons" as part of their live show in the autumn, but have promised to put on more of a show in their live performance.
Its started already, just watching the draw was nervous. I’ve said all summer I’ve not missed soccer – our show West London Derby has been going on throughout the close season and we’ve found things to talk about to keep it all alive.
The Women’s World Cup was a nice summer slice of soccer and the #ff Funny Friendlies were very entertaining over the last few weeks. Watching us against the Red Bulls last weekend was pretty much picking up where we left off – creative sharp and attacking, up front still lacking and conceding sloppy goals.
You cant read to much into these #ff Funny Friendlies though, the dissent on Twitter was a bit over the top but expected from our frowning fans.
I forgot this anxious excited feeling though, every match in the second half of last season was ridiculous, clawing back against West Brom, 98mins of Liverpool and Stuffing Utd with half a team! At half time against Barcelona I looked up from the clock end to an Anfield 89 banner and sent vibes to the team to believe in the same – a rousing second half performance and some Super Nick involvement was just incredible – beating them at their own game and sending the Glacticons into the gutter with their Piella smeared everywhere!
The hooligan escapes from me every time, the shouting and yelling and playful passion clouds my vision, which is why I find writing about sport so difficult. I love Arsenal, I’m a fan of football but the Love is Arsenal. We play the game in the most attractive way and thus are the ambassadors of the sport. Other than the Emirates Cup which I’ve heard is going to be a qualification tournament next year? The lack of silverware is disappointing but to watch such wonders week in week out is Golden Goal.
Part of the nerves behind the draw was that I wanted a home tie first – my mum is away and thus I get to go, the decision now is who to take? August Arsenal Champions League – what a treat!
Newcastle first day of the season should be exciting, they deserve a good pasting after what they did to us last season and their excited twitter twat should hopefully go someway to disrupt their pre-season plans.
@ least 4 goals – fuck it 5! We played them at Highbury in 2003 – it was on a Friday night? We won 3-2 and the game was symbolic for my life going in a particular direction. I went on to play a killer DJ set that night whacking out no less than 5 Muse tunes!
