3rd year - Strange Currencies (REM), Common People (Pulp), Dizzy (Wonderstuff), Spirit in the Sky (Dr & the Medics) ‘Spirit in the Sky was played last at the Freshers Ball, a folksy weird intro and then boom! What a time was to come. All these still take me back to a very special place and time.’

Brendan McSharry (1971) - Those Were The Days (Mary Hopkin), Bridge Over Troubled Water (Simon & Garfunkel), She’s a Lady (Tom Jones) ‘I would often hear these songs on the jukebox of my favourite Lampeter pubs - The Black Lion and The Ivy Bush. They were all big love-song hits in their day, were very tuneful and featured on BBC’s Top of the Pops. I would hum them to myself in my Lloyd Thomas and later Garth House rooms; and on my cross-country runs along the tracks that stretched beyond Station Terrace and Magic Mountain. All four singers (Mary Hopkin, Paul Simon, Art Garfunkel and Tom Jones had great lyrical voices and came across as very personable and attractive - though Paul Simon stood out among them as being also a gifted songwriter.’

Esther Weller (1999) - Yma o Hyd (Dafydd Iwan) ‘Dafydd Iwan gave a gig at the Arts Hall in my 3rd or 4th year at Lampeter. I still vividly remember the feeling I had as one of hundreds of Lampeter students singing Yma o Hyd at the top of our voices. I knew then we were somewhere special. The emotion continued when Yma o Hyd became our campaign anthem at the recent protests in Lampeter and at the Senedd.’
