Hey, Julie! Just finished re-watching Crumb for the first time in over 10 years.) Now, for something a bit less grim. ;-) | |

I LOVED that experiment, gone all wobbly, with Fabio and Clay. My face hurt from all the chuckling. Terribly fun show. | |

Bonjour Julie ! :' ) Bonjour all listeners extraordinaires ! | |

Tue. 5/17/11 3:09am
Adam in Portland:
@Julie, ahhh, it's alright either way. I love grim as well, but I'm thinking about poor Charles Crumb. On an unrelated note: what do you think of the band Silverfish? Familiar? | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:10am
Adam in Portland:
Hello, all, and all to come! :-) | |

Howard in Portland, OR:
Thank you for the TOYAH interview, Julie! Back in the '80s I was in the 'North American Toyah Fan Club,' run by some guy in Connecticut (I think). I wish I still had some of those newsletters! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:16am
Julie:
I hope you can hear it. It sounds a bit quiet but I've got it all the way up. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:17am
Van:
Coming through great Julie, and many thanks! Happy Birthday Toyah! | |
|

Hey Julie :) Sacking out now, but will catch the archive. Have a great show :) Looks like you have great company for your overnight journey! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:21am
Adam in Portland:
Julie, the comfortability you and Toyah seem to have established in talking with one another is making this interview such a bright pleasure. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:22am
DJ TM5 / Pete:)_:
Hey little sister what have you done? | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:22am
Julie:
@Adam it's like talking to a friend! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:22am
Adam in Portland:
Night, Danne D! Great to see you about these parts for a moment. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:23am
Van:
A little royal wedding music...? ;) | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:23am
Julie:
Yep! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:23am
Adam in Portland:
Steve Stevens had fantastic 80's hair. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:25am
Van:
If Toyah and Kate were to do a project together, *I* would fall through the floor!! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:27am
pierre:

|

|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:35am
Julie:
@Jay sit back and relax now | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:37am
jaycjay:
Thanks Julie, and I'll leisurely catch the first half hour once the archive is up. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:37am
Adam in Portland:
I think a collaboration between Toyah and Baby Dee could prove well worthwhile. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:38am
Van:
Kate! Love this song | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:40am
pierre:
@Julie, the thing i like here, is that i'm almost sure to hear Kate Bush, almost every week. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:42am
Julie:
@Pierre I had to keep myself from asking Toyah to give me her contact info! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:42am
Van:
I see what you're doing here Julie in this set: The Bowie, the early Kate, the current Roxie...all were most certainly early influential works on Toyah | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:43am
Julie:
:) | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:46am
Van:
This is my first time listening live to your show Julie. Couldn't miss a Toyahspectacular :) | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:51am
pierre:
i know what your going through, i cannot keep myself from asking things to my favourite fmu djs. : ) | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:51am
Julie:
@Van Me either! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 3:59am
jaycjay:
FYI all: The 1979 version of The Tempest, featuring Toyah as Prospero's daughter, is available for streaming on Netflix. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:00am
Julie:
Yes I need to watch that! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:01am
Van:
shot! shot! shot! :) | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:01am
Julie:
Are we doing our "that's terrific" shots? | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:01am
Van:
yep! with beer though :) | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:01am
Julie:
Seriously! Jules needs something else to say. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:22am
DJ TM5 / Pete:
Julie, I have been tuning in since 3 and am enjoying the show. I am working online and the music is in the background | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:23am
siggi:
listening in as always....best regards an icelander in sweden | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:23am
pierre:
that's strange, because "Dark night of the soul" is happening in the morning, with a breakfast mood for me (as well as everyone in europe, mostly) / This said, i ttally see how it would fit well during the middle of the night, but it suit my morning very well. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:23am
Julie:
@Pete thank you! Very different show this week | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:24am
Julie:
I did the interview first thing in the morning, oh man,..so not a morning girl | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:25am
Julie:
@siggi welcome! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:26am
Marmalade Kitty:
It's not possible to speak of PJ Harvey with any credibility when you have conceded to liking Elton John Lady Gaga | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:27am
Andrea on the M62:
Ah tori pj and now just need a bit of bjork! Then I'm back to being 16 again! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:27am
Julie:
LOL MK...you might want to hide soon then | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:27am
pierre:
yeah, timeline differences : ) | |

G'morning from Helsinki! World Hockey Championship hangover! This is ROCKING more more more more | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:28am
Julie:
Good morning HF! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:29am
Julie:
I must look this up, do you suppose that is Fripp? | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:29am
DJ TM5 / Pete:
reminds me of Robin Trower | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:30am
Julie:
Trower? Isn't that one of Clay Pigeon's guys | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:36am
Julie:
Oh wow..Gaga scared everyone away. Toyah loved her, I figured I'd give her a chance with a non-hit..but still..meh | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:37am
jaycjay:
Heh... I think Clay does play Trower at times. But if you mean the Kiss of Reallity track, it's neither Fripp nor Trower... they were a German prog band. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:37am
helsingfred:
I keep reading that Alison G is like the worst person to work with in the whole biz... but the sound!... | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:37am
jaycjay:
That's OK, you recovered from the Gaga quickly with a Goldfrapp. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:38am
Julie:
@Jay thanks! I think Clay played Trower on Thurs but not sure. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:39am
jaycjay:
Yeah I think he tossed in a trower during that... whatever that was on Thursday. Not sure if he does so regularly though. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:39am
Van:
Gaga - meh to me too. Goldfrapp - new to me...sounds nice though. And not Fripp, looks like it was David Pittaway I guess | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:40am
Julie:
@Van that was some seriously awesome playing there | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:40am
stump:
not a GaGa fan at all ..but this song surprized me. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:41am
Julie:
@stump yeah it was the most palatable thing on the CD | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:43am

elton john omfg we're all gonna die... | |

Tue. 5/17/11 4:43am
Julie:
@HF gots to get the EJ in before the rapture | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:43am
jaycjay:
Toyah's given me enough enjoyment over the years... I won't hold her "guilty pleasures" against her. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:46am
Van:
Enjoyed the Tori Amos (and yes I'm a guy and no not gay)...been a fan for years. PJ Harvey as well. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:47am
helsingfred:
oh yeah the world ends on Saturday! take us out, julie! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:49am
Van:
Lady or the Tiger was a trick question. Toyah IS the tiger (from the Lion's mane to the Tiger's claw) ;) | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:51am
Julie:
I love it "Long hard slog!" | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:52am
pierre:

|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:54am
Van:
Awesome!! Toyah in the US!? ABOUT TIME!! | |
|

Estonia is cool | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 4:58am
Van:
lol Julie, I feel now like maybe 1.5 degrees of separation from Toyah...thanks ;) | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:00am
Julie:
I found out that dave mandl interviewed she & fripp in 1991 back in East Orange! Live in studio...sigh | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:01am
Marmalade Kitty:
Just read this excerpt fom a rag uk tabloid, Toyah interview speaking of her school days; "One day Margaret Thatcher, then the education minister, came to give a speech, and I set five alarm clocks to go off under the stage at three-minute intervals while she spoke. She hardly faltered, but when it happened the whole audience turned and looked at me. " lol, sounds like something I would have found amusing when I was at school! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:04am
Julie:
Oh man that's funny. little troublemaker | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:04am
jaycjay:
Nice... I was hoping you'd get to some King Crimson! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:04am
Van:
Don't worry Julie...you'll get Toyah live around September :) @MK - that is hilarious :) | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:04am
DJ TM5 / Pete:
OMG!!!!! KUDOS for the Crimson | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:08am
Van:
Any requests tonight Julie? If so...Blue Meanings and/or Ieya? Or The Vow? Or Love is the Law? :) | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:09am
Julie:
Hmm Van I didn't bring everything with me, sorry. If I can fit something in I'll see what's on my best of | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:12am
Marmalade Kitty:
the excerpt was from www.dailymail online | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:12am
Van:
Outstanding set so far, just awesome | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:13am
Julie:
ah yes! I've got it! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:16am
Robert:
Wow, a song by Toyah that I don't hate! That was unexpected. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:16am
Van:
YAY!!!! Thanks!! :) | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:16am
Julie:
Wow Robert this must be torture for you. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:20am
Robert:
I'll be honest, I'm looking forward to hearing something other than Toyah. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:20am
Van:
@Robert - this week you're outvoted...sorry ;) | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:21am
stump:
sorry Julie but I kinda agree with Robert | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:23am
Van:
Angels & Demons - The Chosen Ones, forever :) | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:24am
Julie:
I played a bunch of stuff that wasn't her, but sorry, that's the focus tonight. More normal show next week. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:26am
maja:
It is such great radio! A classic show! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:27am
Julie:
I overdid it, but 30 years of music | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:27am
Van:
yes and her brick went up right by Robert's I think | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:28am
stump:
No matter I still LOVE your show | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:29am
Julie:
Thank you, Stump :) | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:29am
Van:
Greatest Show Ever IMHO, and many thanks...I don't think you overdid it at all. The point was to celebrate Toyah and her birthday after all :) | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:30am
Van:
Kate Bush themed show next week, right? ;) | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:30am

|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:35am

A Kate Bush special would get y vote! | |
|

|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:37am
Julie:
@MK and yet her biggest hit | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:37am
Andrea on the M62:
Thoroughly enjoyed the Toyah interview and music. Good luck to Toyah with the new stuff I'll be looking out for it! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:38am
Marmalade Kitty:
Yes, I've been thinking about listening to the wall.. | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:39am
Julie:
@Andrea & @Van thank you! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:39am
Julie:
@MK that sounds really funny | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:43am
Marmalade Kitty:
or was that talking to the wall? Hmm! I remember Toyah on top of the pops - uk music chart weekly show; live but mimed! I was very young, 7 or something! I was impressed by her hair more than anything | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:44am
Robert:
actually, i'd like a jilted john special more than anything! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:44am
Julie:
jilted john? | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:46am
Van:
Gotta get to England soon for a Toyah concert...would love to meet the Angels & Demons as well...what tales they could tell!! | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:46am
Marmalade Kitty:
Bird in Flight" I think this is the Toyah track for me! an underrated one perhaps | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:47am
Julie:
Haha and that's the one she hates | |
|
Tue. 5/17/11 5:49am
Robert:
