This week's tunes, in case you couldn't hear my links because, well, I forgot to turn the microphone on...

#ThePlaylist

This week's caring, nurturing mothers. May they hold you close to their breast and sing lullabies at you. Lullabies by Napalm Death.

NEXT WEEK ON #ThePlaylist:

Toys and Games

Two hours of fun for all the family. A radio show for ages 0-100, but please beware of small parts.

Fling your suggestions my way using #ThePlaylistSuggestion, and together we'll plumb the depths of the nostalgia that prevents us from accepting that we're all adults now, whether we like it or not.

@DJDarren My #AusMusic #ThePlaylistSuggestion on the theme of theme "Toys and Games".

"Mondays Experts" - Weddings, Parties, Anything. A folk-rock song about everyone being an expert about the weekend's sporting games after the fact.

"Computer Games" - Mi-Sex . Who doesn't love some 1980s synth rock?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-7VweoFu9w

"Holy Grail" - Hunters & Collectors. This song has become an Australian anthem about chasing sporting dreams. This video is in the Australian Rules football context.

"Leaps and Bounds" - Paul Kelly (Because it famously references "High on the hill, looking over the bridge, to the MCG") (*)

"Bradman" - Paul Kelly. To long at 7 minutes, but a masterful story.

(*) Is there a compulsory Paul Kelly suggestion(s) I make for every theme?
