Paul Weller covers Christy Moore song on new album
Find El Dorado is out on 25 July and sees Weller cover songs by The Kinks, The Bee Gees, and The Flying Burrito Brothers and collaborations with Hannah Peel, Seckou Keita, and Amelia Coburn.
One Last Cold Kiss was written by songwriters Gail Collins and Felix Pappalardi and appeared on Moore's 1999 Traveller album and has previously been covered by American rock band Mountain.
The 15-track album, which was partially recorded in Weller's own Black Barn Studio in Surrey, is described as "a deeply personal new album of reinterpretations. Drawing on a lifetime of listening, the record sees Weller revisit songs that have long lived in the back of his mind - now reimagined with fresh meaning and a sense of reverence".
Speaking about Find El Dorado, the former front man of The Jam said, "These are songs I've carried with me for years. They've taken on new shapes over time. And now felt like the moment to share them."
It also marks Weller's return to Parlophone Records, the label behind his critically acclaimed run of albums from 2015 to 2019.

Her slender frame was on full display in the sizzling snap, with her toned abs and thighs looking firm and lean. Fan pages have already started to reshare the snap Ellie posted on her Instagram stories. One fan page on X shared the image with a heart emoji covered in flames. While another wrote: "Girl," with an exhausted emoji. This comes after we reported that Ellie and her new man, 28, went public with their relationship last month. They went public as they sat in their ringside seats at Wembley Stadium for the world heavyweight boxing title clash between Oleksandr Usyk and Daniel Dubois. Pop star Ellie Goulding teased fans about mystery new man with cryptic TikTok post Ellie shared a clip of her stroking a man's arm on TikTok, with the caption: "Just a little something to take the edge off." English chart-topper Ellie is believed to have met US actor Beau earlier this year. He has had a string of small acting parts in films and on American TV. Ellie announced she had separated from art dealer husband Caspar Jopling 18 months ago amid a short-lived fling with a Costa Rican surfing instructor. She and her ex Caspar tied the knot in 2019 at York Minster. Their ceremony took place in front of famous guests including the likes of Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice. The couple then went on to welcome their son Arthur in 2021. Ellie and Caspar were married for four years before they split. The talented singer has poured her former heartache into a new album and opened up about the split. Easy To Love Me, which Ellie debuted at London's Royal Albert Hall backed by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, hints at the reason behind their separation. On the track, she sings: 'Every mistake I made was the last one, yet you still fight for us. "I know it's not easy to love me but I'm yours if you want me. 'I know it's not easy to love me but I'm yours, so completely. "I tried to soak up all the water you had to wade through just to reach me.' 6 Ellie is said to be smitten with Beau Minniear Credit: Getty

Celebrity SAS's Rudy Reyes accused of secret affair with Real Housewife behind husband's back
Phypers has denied being emotionally and physically abusive to his ex Denise Richards CHEAT SHOCK Celebrity SAS's Rudy Reyes accused of secret affair with Real Housewife behind husband's back CELEBRITY SAS star Rudy Reyes has been accused of having an affair with Real Housewife Denise Richards by her estranged husband. Aaron Phypers, 49, filed for divorce from former Bond girl Richards, 54, last month following an explosive row. 5 Rudy Reyes has been accused of having an affair with Denise Richards Credit: Getty 5 Denise starred on Special Forces: World's Toughest Test in 2023 Credit: Getty 5 Aaron Phypers filed for divorce from Richards last month Credit: Getty The American businessman has now claimed he discovered Richards was cheating on him with former Marine Reyes, 53, back in April. Richards starred with Reyes in the third series of Special Forces: World's Toughest Test in 2023. The military instructor split from his gun instructor girlfriend Jade Struck, 25, earlier this year. In an interview with The Mail, Phypers said Richards had promised to break things off with Reyes, only to hook up with him the following month in a California hotel. That alleged rendezvous was the basis for their July showdown that signalled the end of their marriage. READ MORE ON CELEBRITY SAS marching orders Celebrity SAS star axed after 'lying & cheating' on show - as another quits Phypers said: "I'm broken-hearted and f***ing tired. Really, she's f***ed me up. "We've been together nine years and for her to do that and to lie to me consistently - I'm totally tired and drained." He said the relationship had been rocky for some time, aggravated by six house moves over the course of their relationship and dozens of pets under their care. He said Richards owned 58 dogs, two pot-bellied pigs, and an 'incontinent' Sphinx cat. The disgruntled ex also accused Richards of being addicted to vicodin and alcohol. But the breaking point came when Phypers said he discovered 107 messages between Richards and Reyes, some of which detailed hotel meet ups and included intimate photos. Furious TV bosses yell at us for pushing celebs too hard, admits Rudy Reyes as he reveals reason why NONE of the stars would pass day 1 of SAS training He told the publication: "I just had this feeling that something was off because her behavior had changed – she was being kind of cool to me. "I opened her phone – we both know each other's passwords - so I opened it up and then I went to her deleted texts and there were 107 of them between her and this guy. "I went through them and it just broke my heart." Following Phypers and Richards' row in July, the actress filed a lawsuit accusing him of physical and verbal abuse, including leaving her with a black eye. Phypers has vehemently denied the claims, telling US Weekly, "Let me be unequivocally clear: I have never physically or emotionally abused Denise — or anyone. "These accusations are completely false and deeply hurtful. Denise and I, like many couples, have faced our share of challenges, but any suggestion of abuse is categorically untrue. "I have always tried to approach our marriage with love, patience, and respect. I ask for privacy as we navigate personal matters, and I hope that the public and media will refrain from spreading harmful and baseless claims.' The Sun has contacted representatives for Richards and Reyes for comment. 5 Reyes is currently on screens in the UK in Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins Credit: PA 5 Richards has accused Phypers of emotional and physical abuse, which he has denied Credit: Getty

New York, New York! Bold Irish-American musical heads Stateside
An original and bold Irish musical is making its way stateside to tell the story of a young Irish-American man chasing stardom in 1950s New York. Most Peculiar Dreams brings audiences into a world of ambition, fame and betrayal with an unflinching look at the darker side of the entertainment industry. Following a successful run in venues across Ireland, writer and composer Fergus Foran and his team are heading to New York. An original and bold Irish musical is making its way stateside to tell the story of a young Irish-American man chasing stardom in 1950s New York. Pic: Youtube Most Peculiar Dreams tells the story of young Irish-American man Shawn Donnelly Jr who is chasing stardom in 1950s New York, with his journey leading him to a seedy nightclub run by Bobby Collier. Here, Shawn becomes involved with the club's star performer Henritetta Harmon, and so grapples with power, manipulation and identity. Writer/composer Fergus Foran explained that they had set out to 'create a show that felt familiar… until it didn't.' He said: 'Most Peculiar Dreams walks you into a world where you think that you now and then pulls the rug out from under you.' One of the most compelling aspects of the musical is the music, which wasn't written merely to accompany the plot, but is actually an essential part of telling the story. Rousing ensemble numbers feature in the piece along with emotionally charged ballads, all of which shift seamlessly between various styles, adding emotional weight to the narrative. To date, the musical boasts 1 million soundtrack steams along with more than 185,000 video views — a testament to the show's powerful reach, which has extended beyond the borders of Ireland. Pic: Youtube/ Double F Music Productions Foran said: 'These aren't just filler songs between scenes; the music is the story. We wrote numbers that entertain but also challenge, disarm, and hit emotionally when it counts.' To date, the musical boasts 1 million soundtrack steams along with more than 185,000 video views — a testament to the show's powerful reach, which has extended beyond the borders of Ireland. Most Peculiar Dreams was created over the course of six years along with more than 50 creatives and no external funding. Foran added that it was a show 'built step by step.'
