Christmas is a time for peace (conflict), joy (misery), and good (bad) will to all men. Love and hate are both joined together in this festive Two Can Play.

Note: This was supposed to have been published automatically on Christmas Day, but Blogger done goofed. Happy New Year!

Songs

Every Day Will Be Like A Holiday -- William Bell

It's Christmas (And I Hate You) -- Josh Weller and Paloma Faith featuring The Arctic Circle and The Puffin Voices

The south of the north of America, just north of Central America but south of the middle-west of America, is the home of three-guitar assaults, the blues, and moonshine. But it has an ugly side. The duality of the southern thing is forever joined together by these two artists on Two Can Play.

Songs

Southern Man -- Neil Young

The Southern Thing -- Drive-By Truckers

Sweet Baboo (alias of musician Steven Black) and Los Campesinos represent controversial stances on dancing, this week. Quite apart from being linked forever in Two Can Play, the two share strong ties to the music scene in my hometown of Cardiff.

Songs

I'm A Dancer -- Sweet Baboo

You! Me! Dancing! -- Los Campesinos

In this England Riots Anniversary episode, Future of the Left sing about a rich student who would like to partake in some looting but enjoys the benefits of a penthouse flat in Kensington. And Bruce Springsteen sings about a rich doctor who visits some poor black folk, gives a pep talk, then takes a little walk. Both upper-class twits are joined forever in Two Can Play.

Songs

Sorry Dad, I Was Late For The Riots -- Future Of The Left

How Can A Poor Man Stand Such Times (And Live) [Live] -- Bruce Springsteen and the Sessions Band
