Jennifer Rush - The Power of Love

This is a power ballad. It is one of the most romantic songs that I know of. At the height of Whitney Houston fame, along comes Jennifer Rush, with granted, a one off hit, yet this songstress climbs the heights of vocal freedom and marks this heart-warming number…

Whitney Houston - I'm Every Woman

I’m not sure if some of my Wez G listeners have noticed the fact that I happen to have a little soft spot for female vocalists? From my earliest days of spinning on the decks in venues, from mainstream teeny-bopper raves to high quality fashionable nightclubs to dodgy little underground shindigs, I always seem to hit the heights of any DJ set with female vocals. So called ‘fans’ of mine used to…

Olivia Rodrigo - Deja Vu

I only ‘discovered’ Olivia Rodrigo yesterday and this was the first track of hers I checked out. I was in London a couple of weeks back and kept having major deja vu experiences, hence this selection. This young lady, a Filipino-American, is only 20 years old. It’s making me feel old seeing youngsters like this coming through! She has a sweet little voice and some creative lyrics, with quality…

Madonna - Like A Prayer

Poor Madge has been unwell over the past week. God, there have been so many music artists leaving us recently. I would hate to see Madonna disappear. I tweeted her best wishes to GET WELL SOON and said “A World Without Madonna is not a World.” She is an artist that has grown and grown on me with age. Her classics are the best in my opinion and are totally timeless although she does move with the…

Vangelis - Rachel's Song

I’ve decided to set up a new part of the website: Random Songs – which will just be selected Youtube videos of songs, old and new that i think are worthy of sharing with Wez G website users. To get us off to a flying start it is a very catchy track off the Ridley Scott classic sci-fi film, Bladerunner. I prefer the original film with Harrison Ford and unfortunately the old video which contained…

Taylor Swift: a Liverpool FC and Swiftie fan's Dream Come True Anfield 13.06.2024: #ynwa I GOT TICKETS #ErasTour

I am a Swiftie and Love Taylor but there are some things that I just don’t just love but I actually live for. Liverpool Football Club is my life. Nothing matters bar Liverpool really. I mean people speculate that football is the new religion etc. which it isn’t really – it’s just a sport but people do feel very strongly about it. It binds friends and families together. It can, in its more…

Taylor Swift: Sorted: London - Wembley - Summer Solstice 21.06.2024 Here we come! I GOT TICKETS #ErasTour

I’ve decided to just be upfront and rather than send her a billion tweets a week, declaring my undying love, I’m opening up a section on my wezg.co.uk website devoted to Taylor Swift. I’m going to try my best to keep it subjective 😉 Main reason for the Wez G Taylor Blog is that I’m going to be a bit out of control for almost a whole year, anticipating like a bounty bar, the tickets that I bought…

Cisco are a big player in the tech world. They are an American-based global company with over 70 000 employees. They rank 74 in the Fortune 100 and have an annual turnover in excess of $50 billion. In my Masterschool cybersecurity course that I’ve been doing since January, we regularly come across Cisco in many different aspects of the course. They primarily produce switches and routers which…

St Paul's Carnival, Bristol, 01.07.2023

This was my first visit to St Pauls Carnival since the COVID-19 epidemic. I got regularly to this Afro-Caribbean street festival, mainly for the authentic jerk chicken, but also it’s a great chance to hear some good music, some proper Bristol sounds and it’s also a cheap day out and lots and lots of fun. The whole carnival costs about a £100000 to put on each year and outside of Notting Hill…

Ben The Hat @ Hive Mind Brewery / Wye Valley Meadery, Caldicot 24.06.2023

Hive Mind Brewery / Wye Valley Meadery is a new venue to me in Caldicot. It is located on the Severnbridge Industrial Estate, not far from the back entrance to Caldicot Castle, near the Mitel Roundabout. It is open as an entertainment venue on Friday and Saturday nights and has a licensed bar with decent prices. The other part of its business is to sell wholesale alcohol that it produces on…

Groove Presents Fat Tony, Luna Springs, Digbeth, Birmingham 29.04.2023 (Alison Limerick Live PA and DJ Jim 'Shaft' Ryan)

I travelled up to Birmingham on the train from Wales and caught up with my good mate DJ Jim ‘Shaft’ Ryan from Miss Moneypennys / Chuff Chuff. Luna Springs is an open-aired nightclub in Digbeth, a great clubbing zone in Birmingham city centre. It was a bit wet and my first experience of ‘daytime clubbing’. Jim kicked off the afternoon with a nice laid back DJ set, peppered with funky…
