Podcasts about The Pogues

On 31 December 1999, a piece of music started playing in a lighthouse in East London. It's called Longplayer, and it's set to keep going, without repeating, until the year 2999. It was created by Jem Finer from The Pogues, using 234 Tibetan singing bowls. Megan Jones has been to meet Jem Finer, to find out why he wanted to create a one thousand year long musical composition.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

"Vuelven las Navidades", cantaba Tom Petty y sus Rompecorazones en "Unas navidades muy especiales" (1992) Nuestro ya clásico programa de "El sueño se ha acabado" en estas fechas con el Doctor Soul, nos lleva al recuerdo sorprendente que hacen de estos días, artistas que poco tienen que ver con lo que celebramos. Nos nos referimos al oportunismo comercial de aquellos que quieren aprovechar la ocasión para vender más discos, sino a músicos que nunca imaginaríamos que harían una canción de Navidad, porque se supone que odian estas fechas. José de Segovia habla del mensaje de la Encarnación por que la que Dios viene a salvar pecadores con Luis Lapuente. Lo hacemos en relación con cantantes muertos trágicamente, como Tom Petty (1950-2017) por sobredosis o el músico de jazz Chet Baker, (1929-1988), destrozado por la droga, que agonizó de dolor, caído de una ventana de un hotel de Amsterdam. Aunque hay muchas canciones sobre Papa Noel, ninguna como la que le dedicaron los Kinks al pobre hombre que hacía de Santa Claus delante de unos grandes almacenes. Si hay alguien conocido por sus excesos en la cultura francesa, ese es Gainsbourg, que rememora la Navidad del 67 con Michel Colomber. Si el grupo británico de los hermanos Davies, The Kinks, ha marcado la vida de Luis Lapuente, el de Ian Anderson, Jethro Tull, está en el origen de la introducción de José de Segovia por su ya fallecido primo Manuel Fernández en el conocimiento exhaustivo de la música pop. Escuchamos su "Canción de Navidad" con su visión "dickensiana" de la hipocresía de estas fechas para con los que sufren pobreza y privación. No podía faltar tampoco en esta ocasión el clásico contemporáneo de unas navidades alternativas de The Pogues. Su "Cuento de Navidad" (Fairytale in New York) nos introduce en la sorprendente fe del alcohólico Shane MacGowan y su temor a perder la Gracia (If I Fall From Grace 1988). Algunos pasan estos días viajando, pero ningún sitio más extraño que el aeropuerto en Navidad, como nos recuerda Nick Lowe (Christmas At The Airport) en su sorprendente álbum de Navidad en 2013. La más dura de las canciones que conocemos sobre estas fechas podría ser la "Tarjeta de Navidad de una prostituta en Minneapolis" de Tom Waits en 1978, una dosis de realismo sobrecogedora. Sus falsos mensajes de paz y armonía son satirizados por los Ramones en su "¡Feliz Navidad! No quiero pelear esta noche!" (1989), pero para muchos, estas fechas son simplemente la ocasión para conocer a la persona que deseas, como en "Esta Navidad" (1970) del cantante de "soul" Donny Hathaway, que acabó también cayendo de una ventana en Nueva York por su enfermedad mental. "La Navidad de Luis" (1973) de León Gieco es probablemente el clásico alternativo de estas fechas del "rock nacional" argentino. Su dictadura militar llevó a Gieco al exilio forzado en los años 70, pero al músico británico de la Velvet Underground de Nueva York, John Cale, lde vuelta mentalmente a su Galés natal (Child´s Christmas In Wales 1973) en su evocación de "Paris 1919". Muchos creen que las "2000 Millas"(1983) es una canción de Navidad, cuando lo que refleja es el duelo de Chrissie Hynde por la muerte por sobredosis de su compañero y guitarrista de Pretenders, James Honeyman-Scott. Si a muchos les recuerdan estas fiestas los seres queridos que ya han perdido, para otros es la molesta perspectiva de volver a tener reunirse con esos familiares molestos, como el del "Villancico para mi cuñado Fernando" de Love Of Lesbian en 2007. Acabamos el programa con el deseo de John Lennon y Yoko Ono de una "Feliz Navidad" (Happy Xmas 1971) en que Cristo traiga "la paz el mundo no da" (Juan 14:27).

"That's the challenge of the song: he's giving us these people at Christmas and forcing us, in the spirit of the season, to find grace for them. He's channeling the fundamental nature of Christmas." - Dave Kitchen In honour of Bill's brother-in-law, Kurt, we are finally featuring the song that Nick Cave said spoke with "profound compassion to the marginalised and the dispossessed." It's a Christmas song unlike any other.  Links: Official Video Live Version on Top of the Pops 1992 Demo Version #2 Jon Bon Jovi version Vance Joy version Bill Murray version Glen Hansard and Lisa O'Neill tribute performance Thank you for being part of our journey!

Shane MacGowan lived his life as an outsider. He was an Irishman living in England, a troublemaking jug-eared punk with rotten teeth and a voracious appetite for drugs and alcohol. And with his band, The Pogues, he created a powerful synthesis of the traditional music of his homeland and a modern punk attitude. It was this gift for melding the sacred with the profane that led to the creation of one of the finest and most unique Christmas songs ever: "Fairytale of New York."

In celebration of the Pogues' 'Fairytale of New York' EP, we take a detailed look at how their classic Christmas single came together. The Pogues originally formed in London in 1982 by Shane MacGowan, Spider Stacy and Jem Finer. MacGowan had gotten his start playing in the punk band, the Nipple Erectors, and when that band broke up, he began playing in an Irish traditional music style. Gradually, he brought in James Fearnley, Cait O'Riordan and John Hasler to become a sextet. Andrew Ranken replaced John Hasler as they signed with Stiff Records. Their debut album, Red Roses for Me, was released in 1984. For their second album, they added Philip Chevron on guitar and hired Elvis Costello as their producer. Rum Sodomy & the Lash was released in 1985, and they continued working with Costello for the Poguetry in Motion EP, released in 1986. At this point, Cait O'Riordan left the band and they updated the lineup to include Darryl Hunt and Terry Woods. They signed to Island Records and hired Steve Lillywhite to produce their third album. If I Should Fall from Grace with God was eventually released in 1988 and included the Christmas single, “Fairytale of New York.”  In this episode, Steve Lillywhite describes working with the Pogues at this pivotal time in their career when they were expanding the lineup and becoming more ambitious with their song structures and arrangements. Despite not having experience recording a traditional folk band, Lillywhite proved to be the right producer for the Pogues at this moment. His input and confidence in the studio led to them splicing two sections of “Fairytale of New York” together and also enlisting his wife Kirsty MacColl to sing the female part in the song. Jem Finer talks about his initial writing process for the song and how he wrote two potential Christmas ideas that his wife Marcia dismissed as being far too sentimental. Her input led to him rethinking the song and writing about a down on their luck couple, inspired by people who lived in their neighborhood in London. Finer describes how Shane MacGowan then took the song and moved the setting to New York City and added some key lines that were taken from real conversations. James Fearnley describes the thrill of recording the opening section with just piano and voice and how he practiced repeatedly to be able to get that part right. He talks about how the song deserved an ambitious string arrangement and so he worked out some ideas on a synthesizer before bringing in Fiachra Trench to help with the orchestration. By taking inspiration from film scores like Ennio Morricone's Once Upon a Time in America and Leonard Bernstein's On the Waterfront, Fearnley talks about wanting to bring a cinematic sound to match the classic American story that was being told. From the song's long gestation period of a few years, to Steve Lillywhite bringing the tapes home and casually asking Kirsty MacColl to sing on it, to the inspiration behind the classic “I could've been someone”  line, to the initial disappointment of getting to number 2 in the charts, to the perfect sparring duet partners in Shane and Kirsty, to the anti-Christmas Christmas song that has become timeless, we'll hear the stories of how the record came together.

vzzzPodcast-Seite: https://vonzeitzuzeit.gordianus.de/2025/12/05/vzk39-fairytale-of-new-york/ Fairytale of New York von den Pogues wurde im November 1987 veröffentlicht und mixt Irish Folk mit Weihnachtslied-Sound. Es ist ein etwas anderes Weihnachtslied. Neben der rauen Stimme von Sänger MacGowan singt Kirsty MacColl den weiblichen Part eher melodisch. Das heißt aber nicht, dass sie nicht austeilen kann: Musikgeschichte und Weihnachtskult Diese #vzzzPodcast-Folge analysiert das berühmte Musikstück „Fairytale of New York“ von den Pogues und Shane MacGowan – einem Song, der in Irland und England als Inbegriff von Weihnachten gilt, aber weit mehr erzählt als festliche Stimmung. Wir beginnen mit persönlichen Anekdoten über die Pogues und die Verbindung des Songtextes mit typisch irischen Traditionen: rauen Kneipennächten, der Rolle von Alkohol in der Selbstinszenierung von Songwritern und der Melancholie irischer Geschichten.​ Das Setting: New York, Polizei und Weihnachten Im Song geht es um ein Paar, das aus Irland stammt, das Weihnachten getrennt verbringt. Der männliche Protagonist landet nach einer durchzechten Nacht im „Drunk Tank“ – der Ausnüchterungszelle in New York. Die „Boys of the NYPD Choir“ im Refrain symbolisieren die kulturelle Verflechtung zwischen Irland und der US-Ostküste; viele Polizisten stammen von irischen Einwanderern ab. Die toxische Beziehung und die Sprache des Liedes Die Dynamik von Fairytale of New York ist von einer toxischen Beziehung geprägt: beide Liebenden streiten sich heftig, beschimpfen sich mit harten Worten – und dennoch bleibt zwischen ihnen eine tiefe Verbundenheit. Die Komplexität der Beziehung wird musikalisch und textlich durch einen Wechsel von aggressiven Duetten und versöhnlichen Rückblenden ausgedrückt. Besonders auffällig ist die Mischung aus derben Schimpfwörtern, Melancholie und dem Wunsch nach Versöhnung im Weihnachtsrahmen. Weihnachtskultur im Vergleich In dieser #vzzzPodcast-Folge wird das Lied auch kulturgeschichtlich eingeordnet und mit deutschen und amerikanischen Weihnachtsbräuchen verglichen: Während „Fairytale of New York“ in Irland für ausgelassenes Feiern und ironische Distanz steht, dominiert in Deutschland oft Schwermut und Ritualisierung. Die Folge illustriert, wie Musik und Gemeinschaft Rituale neu definieren können. In dieser Episode erfährst du: - Wie Irland den Weihnachtskult international geprägt hat - Was „Fairytale of New York“ über Liebe, Streit und Sehnsucht erzählt - Welche Rolle Alkohol und Polizei im Song und seiner Geschichte spielen - Warum das Lied eine einzigartige Brücke zwischen Irland, New York und Weihnachten baut - Wie Weihnachtsmusik Identität und gesellschaftliche Dynamik beeinflusst Abonniere unseren Podcast auf Spotify, YouTube, Apple oder überall wo es Podcasts gibt.

In this episode of the XS Noize Podcast, Mark Millar is joined by legendary producer Steve Lillywhite — the Grammy-winning studio mastermind behind iconic records by U2, The Rolling Stones, Talking Heads, The Smiths, The Killers, Peter Gabriel, and many more. Steve talks about the release of a brand-new 4-track EP featuring a completely unreleased live version of "Fairytale of New York" — recorded at Glasgow Barrowlands in December 1987. This historic performance captures the first time The Pogues ever played the song live, and the first time Kirsty MacColl performed it onstage with the band. The EP is released on 12 December. Recorded by Steve himself — producer of the original version and then-husband of Kirsty MacColl — the Barrowlands tape offers a rare window into the early live life of what has become the UK's favourite Christmas song for over a decade. Originally charting at No. 2 in 1987, "Fairytale of New York" has returned to the UK Top 20 every year since 2005. Steve reflects on the making of the classic track, the energy of that unforgettable night in Glasgow, and key moments from across his remarkable career. Listen to Steve Lillywhite discuss the new EP, the legacy of Fairytale of New York, and the stories behind his legendary productions — exclusively on the XS Noize Podcast.

The complex needs of adopted children are leaving parents at breaking point as they say they are being denied support then blamed by authorities when they can no longer cope, a BBC investigation has found. A BBC Freedom of Information request revealed the scale of the crisis, and the number of families that are returning their children to the care system. Anita Rani is joined by BBC special correspondent Judith Moritz and Fiona Wells who runs PATCH, Passionate Adopters Targeting Change with Hope, a support group for adoptive parents.For the last two years, the mystery of exactly what happened at Erin Patterson's dining table had gripped the world. And then in September this year, after a nine-week trial, Erin Patterson was jailed for life - with no chance of release for at least 33 years. Her crime: murdering three relatives by intentionally poisoning them with wild mushrooms and trying to kill another. Dubbed the ‘Mushroom Murders', Anita speaks to Sarah Krasnostein, who wrote a book about Erin's trial, and Dr Stephanie Brown, a historical criminologist, to understand the public view of women who poison.Camille O'Sullivan has toured with the Pogues and was chosen by Yoko Ono to perform at Meltdown festival in the Royal Festival Hall.

The second part of the hugely popular film Wicked - called Wicked: For good, starring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, continues to take the UK and the world by storm. It's already taken over $226m at the global box office. Telling an alternative version of the Wizard of Oz, it explores how our perception of good and evil can be distorted. It's also the story of the unlikely friendship between Elphaba and Glinda and the tensions that can be put on that friendship. Anita is joined by the Independent's chief album critic Helen Brown and film critic Leila Latif to discuss why Wicked has been so successful and what it tell us about female friendships today.

HISTORISKE SANGE Ligesom de tidligere temaer i Sejrstimen 'Krigs Musik' og 'Politisk Pop', vrimler det ikke med sange i dette nye tema og en del af dem der er, har klare referencer til netop krig og politik. Især i det nye årtusinde glimrer sange indenfor disse kategorier ved deres fravær, hvor det derimod var ret udbredt ikke bare i 60'erne/70'erne men også 80'erne. Derfor er de fleste af temaets navne/numre netop derfra: Tracey Chapman, Leonard Cohen, The Divine Comedy, Morten Harket, Latin Quarter, Midnight Oil, Morrissey, Momus, Not Drowning Waving, The Pogues, Nina Simone, Arja Saijonmaa, Simple Minds, Sparks, The Specials, Sting, TV2, U2, Roger Waters og Cassandra Wilson (billedet). Kunstnere og musikere var åbenbart meget mere villige tidligere til både at engagere sig i og skrive sange om politiske og ofte samtids-aktuelle forhold. Det så man ikke mindst vedr. Sydafrika/Apartheid. Respektabelt ville det være, hvis alle de samme navne også havde vovet det om andre tragedier og uretfærdigheder, især IsPalGaza

Episode 152. The Emporium brings you the music of Whitesnake, U2, Dollar, Catatonia, Sister Sledge, The Darkness, Shakira, The Pogues, Suzanne Vega, Bryan Adams, Olivia Dean, Primal Scream, Rush, Taylor Swift & Sabrina Carpenter.

Przemysłowe miasto w Anglii i robotnicza dzielnica w Polsce. Dwa przyczynki do świetnych piosenek. Zacznijmy od Wysp Brytyjskich. Pierwszy przystanek to Salford, w hrabstwie Greater Manchester w Anglii. Stare,  przemysłowe miasto, a co za tym idzie miasto robotnicze. Tak bardzo robotnicze, że to właśnie tu Marx i Engels pomieszkiwali aby studiować ciężkie życie brytyjskiego proletariatu. Ale nie oni są dla nas dzisiaj najważniejsi. W Salford urodził się i wychował James Henry Miller. Znamy go bardzo dobrze. Tworzył, nagrywał i występował pod pseudonimem Ewan MacColl – prawdziwa ikona angielskiego, a w zasadzie światowego folku. Zanim świat go poznał jako folkowego barda, Ewana MacColl próbował być dramaturgiem, współtworzył lewicującą grupę teatralną i pisał sztuki. Akcję jednej z nich „Landscape with Chimney” umieścił właśnie w swoim rodzinnym mieście. Żeby umilić widzom przerwę niezbędną do zmieniany dekoracji, Ewan napisał piosenkę. Ot historyjkę  przywołującą młodzieńcze wspomnienia z przemysłowego Sulford, randki pod gazownią, spacery nad starym kanałem i pierwsze pocałunki pod fabrycznym murem. Nad tym wszystkim rozciąga się przemysłowy smród i odgłosy pracującego miasta. Brudnego, starego miasta. No właśnie, no to tytuł mógł być tylko jeden „ Dirty Old Town”. Nie przypuszczał Ewan, że pisząc niewinny przerywnik do sztuki teatralnej stworzy jeden z największych przebojów wyspiarskiego folku, śpiewany w pubuch i na scenach dosłownie na całym świecie. Pierwsze nagranie autor zrealizował w 52 roku. Piosenka szybko przyjęła się w nowopowstających klubach folkowych. Wkrótce swoją wersję nagrał znany folklorysta Alan Lomax i piosenka poszła w świat. No i „Dirty Old Town” zapragnęli mieć w swoim repertuarze chyba wszyscy artyści choć trochę ocierający się o folk. A słynni The Dubliners w 68 roku dokonali tak porywającego nagrania, że wielu słuchaczy do dziś ma wrażenie że „Dirty Old Town” to irlandzki kawałek.   Ale my nie gęsi. Też mamy swoje stare miasta i ich brudne dzielnice. Szczecin. Miasto nie tak stare jak Salford ale stare. Dzielnica również stara. Pierwsze wzmianki o niej pochodzą z XIII wieku. W XIV już była wymieniana jako wieś pod nazwą Zabelsdorf. W XIX wcielona do granic administracyjnych Szczecina. Dziś jest największą dzielnicą tego miasta i nosi nazwę Niebuszewo. Dzielnica w XIX i na początku XX wieku całkiem prężnie się rozwijała, była dzielnicą przemysłowo mieszkalną, z ciekawą architekturą, której niestety nieliczne ślady pozostały do dzisiaj. Kres rozwojowi przyniosła II wojna światowa. Po wojnie dzielnica została zasiedlona powracającymi z innych terenów Niemcami, Żydami i oczywiście Polakami. Póżniej Niebuszewo zaczęli opuszczać bardziej zamożni mieszkańcy. Dzielnica podupadała, z czasem zyskała złą sławę. Winna temu była wysoka przestępczość. Dziś Niebuszewo jest umieszczane wysoko w zestawieniach polskich niebezpiecznych dzielnic. Ale w brudnej, niebezpiecznej dzielnicy też można mieć szczęśliwe dzieciństwo i bujną młodość. Sulford miało swojego barda  – Niebuszewo ma swojego. Tu pierwszych win próbował, tu pierwsze bójki toczył i tu przemierzał szlaki piwnic i strychów lider szczecińskiej punk folkowej formacji Emerald – Leszek Czarnecki. I jak Ewan o Sulford, tak Leszek o swoim dorastaniu w Niebuszewie napisał piosenkę. I to jaką. „Niebuszewo”, bo taki prosty tytuł nosi, to miejski folk najwyższej próby. Ja od pierwszego przesłuchania jestem oczarowany. Świetny tekst i kompozycja, wspaniała, niebanalna aranżacja. No i wykonanie, nie przesadzę jak powiem, że Pana Czarneckiego z zespołem spokojnie możemy umieścić na tej samej półce co MacGowana z Poguesami. Sail ho   Audycja zawiera utwory: “Dirty Old Town” w wykonaniu „The Pogues”, słowa I muzyka: Ewan MacColl „Niebuszewo” w wykonaniu zespołu „Emerald”, słowa i muzyka: Leszek Czarnecki

 We visited with Sean Griffin on this episode about his forthcoming album, how his process has changed over the years, his supportive wife, and his single “Rocks Off.”  Sean Griffin is a veteran singer-songwriter and the charismatic founding frontman of Celtic rock cult favorites The Ruffians. After years fronting rowdy pub stages and raising six kids while running a successful business, Griffin returns with his solo debut — a raucous, reflectivecollection of songs that blend punk energy, folk storytelling, and hook-filled rock melodies. Steeped in Irish tradition and punk rebellion, his music channels the spirit of The Pogues and Joe Strummer, with a voice full of grit, wit, and soul. His new single, “People Are Mad,” is a barroomanthem for chaotic times — rowdy, unfiltered, and ready to raise a glass.  Be sure to check Sean out here:  Website: Seangriffinofficial.com  IG: Griffin.sean  Facebook: Sean Griffin  And watch the video on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/NbBWhs7-Oi4

Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. The Pogues were born out of the Irish diaspora in London and out of Shane McGowan's love of the downtrodden. The guys welcome a special (and very relevant) guest to discuss gritty vocals, the ulian pipes, and punk energy filtered through traditional music.Check out Stephen's record club here and reach out to him about joining up if you're in Australia: https://www.youtube.com/@shortcutsrecordsJoin our Mailing List here: https://linktr.ee/1001albumcomplaintsEmail us your complaints (or questions / comments) at 1001AlbumComplaints@gmail.comListen to our episode companion playlist (compilation of the songs we referenced on this episode) here:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3Pf64NxZp1IjG3xQKB2Jvo?si=d7e11b6e462e4774Listen to Rum, Sodomy, and the Lash here:https://open.spotify.com/album/5uy9pvgfvVAlZnegK6fPLU?si=Z2bQ2TN4RIq-WrQO8141UgIntro music: When the Walls Fell by The Beverly CrushersOutro music: After the Afterlife by MEGAFollow our Spotify Playlist of music produced directly by us.

Sit down everyone as school is back in session. Your teacher for this episode is one of America's best storytellers, Louisiana-based singer/songwriter/fiddler/guitarist Louis Michot. Louis is truly a national treasure, a student as much as he is teacher. In his "day job" he fronts the multiple Grammy winning traditional Cajun band the Lost Bayou Ramblers. Here, Louis returns to For Songs to discuss his latest solo album called Seauxleaux (https://louismichot.bandcamp.com/album/seauxleaux) (pronounced “solo” in Cajun French). This interview, along with his performance on the raw, riveting Seauxleaux, will give you chills, or at least it does for me. We talk about history, the impact of lifelong relationships, and what it means—or doesn't—to be punk rock. So grab a beer, your pencil, and let Louis take you away.

Spider co-founded the Pogues, along with Shane MacGowan, Jem Finer, and James Fearnely and he has appeared on all of their recordings. The band's original intent was for MacGowan and him to share vocal duties, but She decided to leave them to Shane after the first performance, opting to learn the tin whistle. He still frequently contributed backing vocals and occasional lead vocals throughout his long tenure with the band. After Shane MacGowan was fired from the Pogues in 1991, Joe Strummer filled in for him for a short period, after which Stacy assumed the role of lead vocalist. The Pogues recorded two albums with him on lead vocals: Waiting for Herb and Pogue Mahone. He resumed his original role in the band when they held reunion shows in 2001 and from 2024 and will do the same for their upcoming tour.

The Pogues would be forgiven for thinking they shouldn't carry on after the death of frontman Shane MacGowan. It was his voice and songwriting that gave the band that extra special spark. Luckily, they won't be putting the band to bed just yet. Founding member Spider Stacy joins us this week to discuss their decision to get back out there in front of the fans on tour this fall, celebrate their legacy, and keep those incredible songs alive. We also get into the continuing impact of "Fairytale of New York", the period in the 90s when Shane left the band, and the stories behind several of their best songs. Along with the Chieftains, the Pogues have done more to keep traditional Irish folk music alive than just about anyone else and they remain one of Ireland's greatest musical exports. We're lucky to have them!  www.pogues.com
