The Night Shift

Welcome to the very first Cortina Nights Blog!
I'm looking
forward to getting your requests in on the Cortina Nights pages of our website
– when you do make a request as well as listing the songs, try to tell me a bit
about that time in your life...
Where did you go for your nights out? Who did you
go with? What did you wear? What did your drink? Then be sure to listen in to
the radio show on Friday’s between 7 and 10 when I’ll play your request.
The big decision for this week's playlist was how to start
the show – that all important first song to set the mood for the party. I
had been pondering this for some time and this weekend at home we watched the
movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" on the TV. There's a scene in the film where
our hero Ferris jumps on a carnival float in a Chicago street parade and starts
miming to "Twist and Shout" by the Beatles.
It is a classic feel-good
moment – decision made, that song will kick off the Cortina Nights radio
show. You'll know the scene if you've seen the movie – and if you haven't
seen it I yet, rent a copy on DVD and watch it immediately after an episode of
Cortina Nights on the radio. Now that's a perfect start to your
weekend...
Steve
