Probably not Melz. The Leadmill gig was only three quarters full and the single went in at number 39. They will probably get dropped if it carries on like that and for me it would be somewhat of a tragedy. Nothing like a tragedy of Boo's proportions, but shocking all the same.

'together in electric dreams' by phil oakey and georgio moroder.
because the opening lines are 'i only knew you for a while/i never saw you smile'. and even though seeing someone for only a brief time during which they never, not once, smiled and were clearly having a very bad time with the whole thing, phil believes their relationship will last eternally in some kind of 80's tron style cyberworld.
i am a huge fan of misguided optimism in me pop songs. |

Dear Prudence - The Beatles.
White album - absolute genius.

Left - Hope of The States.
I'd forgotten how much I loved them until I went to see them on Saturday. Best gig I've ever seen at The Leadmill in my 12 years of going there, even though the crowd seemed a bit arsed.
Left is the title track of the new album is a massive massive achingly beautiful epic.
Love them, love it. and the rest of the album too.

I saw them recently too, I thought the new album played very well live. an enthusiastic audience too, with a little banter between some of them and Sam : audience member : 'we love you' Sam: 'no you don't'...when the love was declared later he said 'I love you too...Paul [guitarist]'s not sure, I think he quite likes you'
favourite live and possibly on the album was Industry. _________________ (and gillworm! she's so funny!) |

There was good banter at the Sheffield gig too, with him slagging of the tradegy of architecture that was the new centre for popular music and is now the Student Union.
Walking around Sainsbury's last night, their chart says it went in at number 70. I think I'm destined to have all my favourite artists being underrated, unlistened-to genius.

Radiator - Super Furry Animals.
Yes yes I know, it's an album, but it's one of the few in history where you really should listen to it from start to finish because it's so close to perfection.

Chime by orbital...
In a way it is also of enough beauty to elicit tears of aesthetic appreciation. Alternatively appreciated by teeth of the clenched kind. _________________ www.myspace.com/storkboychoons

I was listening to Chime last night, its so ace yet simple. Orbital seem to have been written out of music history these days though, they don't get mentioned in any 'best albums ever' lists apart from the ones I write in crayon on my walls at home. |
