Love Inc. – Broken Bones

That day of the week again, musical throwback Thursday.  A few years ago did one of these posts on Love Inc. and their song You’re a Superstar.  Which is my favourite of theirs.  This time it’s my second favourite, Broken Bones.   Still have the cassette tape, Love Inc., which these songs are from. That was released in 1998.  You can give the song a listen > here or below.

The Great Escapists Trailer

If you are a The Grand Tour you most likely know that Richard Hammond had teamed up with Tory Belleci (of MythBusters fame) for a new show.  Think I have known for it seems like years.  Well it is have some great news we will get to see it soon.  It called The Great Escapists and will start airing on Amazon Prime January 29, 2021.  They both have hosted science  shows in the past.  With I thought this was going to be. But after watching the trailer > here or below.  It’s more of a comedy with some science-ish around it.  Does look like a fun show, which will have six episodes.

Red 5 – I Love You…Stop!

It is the first musical throwback Thursday of a new year.  This pick is a song I have not heard in many, many years.  It is I Love You Stop by Red 5.  Couldn’t find much info.  Turns out the artist behind is called  Thomas Kukula.  It was released in 1997 as a single.  All so the album, Red 5 – Forces.  Think the song still sounds good today (minus the locals).  You can give it a watch/listen > here or below.

Arthur’s Perfect Christmas

Have one more Christmas TV special that is a must watch, Arthur’s Perfect Christmas.  Said this last year has well, Am a bit surprised it is still on YouTube.  Most times theses are taken down.  Not sure if will get all my favourites in before it’s too late.  But will try.   You can give this a watch > here or below.

Merry Christmas Mr. Bean

Time for another must watch Christmas episodes special.  Up next is Merry Christmas Mr. Bean.  Have watched this one for many, many years on the DVD box set I have.  There have been a few versions on YouTube that were ok.  However in 2018 the official Mr. Bean YouTube channel has all the episodes.   You can give this classic a watch > here or below.

A Garfield Christmas Special

Christmas is not very far way.  Am late to start watching TV specials.  So let’s start with one of my favourites, A Garfield Christmas Special.  No matter how many times I watch this, it still puts a smile on my face.  This is a very important cartoon classic.  That you need to watch.  Which you can do > here or below.

Johnny Reid – I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day

This will be the last musical throwback Thursday to go before Christmas.  So am picking my all time favourite (since 2013) for the song this week.  It is I Heard The Bells on Christmas Day done by Johnny Reid.  This is off his album A Christmas Gift to You.  This became my favourite the first time I heard it.  Which was on a TV special of the same name.  The full album is prefect.  There is a full playlist > here.  A for this song you can hear it > here or below.

Should have talked about this soon.  Back in November (2020) Rockstar Games announced a new update coming to Grand Theft Auto Online.   It is called the Cayo Perico Heist.  This adds a new location and new ways to play.  In the past heist missions you have to have four players.  This time it can be played solo or up to four players.  On December 9th they put out a new trailer which you can see > here or below.  Will check trying this new DLC some time soon.  It is set to be on on December 15th.

Everyone Can Sing At Christmas | Holiday Music from Corner Gas Animated

Every year there seems to be a new Christmas song.  Some not so great but then there are some the become and instant classic.  For example from the guy behind Corner Gas Animated they put one out called, Everyone Can Sing At Christmas. The song is very funny and so is the animated video.  Which you can check out for yourself > here or below.  From what I can remember there has only been one Corner Gas Christmas episode.  That being said there be one episode for season three.  Do believe it will air on December 14, 2020.
