It isn’t all about fellatio you know… I have spent today mostly listening to Romance Is Boring but when I can pull myself away from the album I’ve been listening to… whoops…
There Are Listed Buildings – Los Campesinos – I haven’t really caught the lyric yet (I shoulda but I couldn’t find an MP3 so only heard it occasionally on youtube. Love it then, love it now
Straight In At 101 – This is to the Hot 100 what Titus’ “Cheers” is to drinking… all the way to it skipping to different subjects.
The Sea – Corinne Bailey Rae – I know it isn’t worth the loss it took to make it but “The Sea” is a gigantic leap forward. People who thinks this is Norah Jones are deaf.
I Do – Screaming Females – It’s like I’m back in High School and the best band in the world are playing my life.
Today Was A Fairytale – Taylor Swift – Written to be sound track sound bites and any fifteen seconds you choose will have you singing.
Rocks Off – Rolling Stones – As I patiently await one of the few albums worth the box set.
Long White Desert Rose – Spider Bag – If the Stones hadn’t made in big they’d be the Spider bags.
Just Snap Your Fingers – Marshall Crenshaw – If Marshall hadn’t made it big he’d be… er, Marshall
Closer – Corinne Bailey Rae – Syncopates snazzy, two for two.
Nobody gets Me Like You – Spoon – This is protypical Spoon right now, like jazz with zero swing or blues to a martial beat, it sounds like a real interesting switch.
La Collectionneuse – Charlotte Gainsbourg – A french take on alt folk.
Solsbury Hill – Peter Gabriel – The “turning water in wine’ leads to an over interpretation of this wonderfully open ended song, So don’t, just let your heart go boom boom boom.
