Phil, one of my fave lists, you have listed above :)

Thanks, Shug. It could have been a little more inspired but I've been consumed by listening to the new Creed album. My apologies to Ms. Spears for the mispelling of her first name. Perhaps I'm not a true fan after all.

senses working overtime-xtc to cut a long story short-spandae ballet rise-pil hollidays in the sun-sex pistols south central rain-r.e.m once in a lifetime-talking heads the choke-skinny puppy shop-snog sonnys burning-the birthday party dark entries-bauhaus dread love-nena hagen

white riot-the clash

i did this to prove im not the sad goth git some people would like to think

2 1st songs :

1. She Sings Alone - See See Rider
2. Superplus - Quickspace (Supersport)

And then, in no particular order :

Under-dressment (or something like that) - Summer Hymns If You're Feeling Sinister - Belle & Sebastian Frank Sinatra - Cake Half-Life Remembered - Pale Saints Laughing Stock - Grandaddy Puppet - Lisa Germano Don't You Know - Disco Inferno My Legendary Girlfriend - Pulp I Can Water My Plants - Monk & Canatella Big - New Fast Automatic Daffodils King Biscuit Time : I Walked The Earth

...

Uncertain Smile - The The......Excellent choice Phil. I was mentally constructing my list and this was the first thing that came to mind. I've got two copies on the turntables as i write this (spent the aftenoon mixing between the US and UK singles--both versions are awesome). Perfect also puts a huge smile on my face. Uncertain Smile live in NewOrleans in 93 was huge. No johnny marr but Matt johnson put on a great show.

Hurricane - Bob Dylan ...think Shug mentioned this recently. The truth never sounded so good.

Somethings Burning - Stone Roses ...the beauty of the roses wrapped up in a hushed groover. harsh lyrics whispered over the funkiest 7+ minutes they ever played

Little Bullet - Spooky ...fucking classic every second. has anyone heard Charlie May's new ep, Bugs? Check it out pronto if you like Spooky/Sasha

There Is a Light - The Smiths

Belfast - Orbital ...symetry is good (but hard to spell)

I Don't Know What I can Save You From - Kings of Convienence (Royksopp Mix) ...my favorite non-neworder song at the moment

Rocky Racoon - The Beatles ...hard to choose with the Beatles so i'll pick my sentimental favorite

Djed - Tortoise ...the first time i heard this i flipped. it's fun to watch the changes approach the needle

Neurotic Behaviour - Carl Craig ...moody techno. absolute prove that machine music is not souless.

Meiso - DJ Krush (Klub Mix) ...dual rap/downtempo selection. Shadow's production is the peak of Krush's live set which is really saying something (isn't it?)

Spoonman - Underworld ...nice bikini, steppin razor

So Much Trouble In the World - Bob Marley ...song for today. "the way things are going, anything can happen"

MMh, first time ever i believe ol' Bob Marley gets a mention on this Forum. I like it!!!

ACR-shack up Stockholm Monsters-your uniform Section 25-looking from a hilltop Beatles-obladi Jimi Hendrix-purple haze Bob Marley-no woman no cry Happy Mondays-kuff dam Rod Steward-maggie mae Chris isaak-blue hotel the Stooges-i wanna be your dog the Smiths-this charming man Lou Reed-Berlin ok, i know thats an album , but it is fooking so good, i can't pick just one song... Velvet Underground-stephanie says

Err, not quite, SUPERMARIO. I listed RNM on my top 12 list earlier, but my choice was made as I got home at 1:30 am drunk as hell and went with the first song of his that popped in my head.

In no order

REM---Electrolite Simple Minds---Alive and kicking Psychedelic Furs---Heartbreak beat Bush---History Midnight oil---Truganini INXS---Questions Depeche Mode---New Dress Cure---A Night Like This Better Than Ezra---Beautiful Mistake 808 State-Pacific U2---New Years Day

Something like:

Sasha: Expander (Brian, I've heard just the one track of C.Mays EP - I thought it was excellent) Stone Roses: She bangs the drums Cure: Just like Heaven Blur: Music is my Radar The Jam: Butterfly Collector PSBs: I'm not scared Sasha+Emerson: Scorchio Badly Drawn Boy: Disillusioned Chicane: Offshore Underworld: Dark and Long Energy 52: Cafe Del Mar Ash: Shining Light
