Just to draw people's attention to this YouTube video of an LS Lowry inspired animated video featuring Oasis singing The Masterplan. Absolutely magical.

And so is this charming rip-off of it, put to Matchstalk Men & Matchstalk Cats & Dogs, which is of course all about the painter.]

And here are the lyrics for The Masterplan, and to Matchstalk Men & Matchstalk Cats & Dogs.

Hi McGrath, thanks for the YouTube link.

I watched Rolph Harris on Lowry the other week. It was a great programme. They showed the Oasis clip. Brilliant use of the Lowry paintings.

Marvellous stuff - I am looking at the Lowry Centre as I type this, as I work directly facing, and guess what - I haven't been in for about 2 years! I finish this job on Friday so I must call in today or tomorrow.

Thanks Kevin:-)

Dave

Here are two more vids from YouTube with Lowry paintings accompanied by Matchstalk Men & Matchstalk Cats & Dogs - actual Lowry paintings this time. They aren't animated, but you'd hardly notice, they come alive as you see them anyway. Here's one, and here's the other - same song, different choice of paintings.
