Beach House – Zebra (Youtube, audio only)
It might not surprise you to know that I spend quite a lot of my time listening to BBC 6 Music. The main reason for this is that they play a lot of great music that you [...]

Stretch & Vern – I’m Alive (Youtube)
Quick one this, as I realised I hadn’t done this today. And am now doing it tomorrow. Which is today. If that makes any sense. Which it doesn’t.
I’ve already gone over my issues with hating songs [...]

Daft Punk – Human After All (Youtube, audio only)
There’s plenty of avenues I could have gone down for this particular choice. Sober by Muse, because I am. White Man In Hammersmith Palais by The Clash, if I was in Hammersmith Palais (which I am not though [...]

J-Kwon – Tipsy (Youtube, audio only)
This is cribbed from my previously mentioned amazing Spotify playlist, because it’s full of tracks I imagine most of you people wouldn’t think I’m into. In fact, there’s so many choices that I’ve more or less gone [...]

Sugababes – Wear My Kiss (Youtube)
This is prefixed by the fact that I don’t necessarily believe in guilty pleasures, but I love this and god it’s not even a good Sugababes track.
What is wrong with me.
12 A Song From A Band You Hate
11 Apr 2010Hate is a very strong word, and it’s not one I ever really use in context to music. Music is what I love, and to pick it apart and label anything with hatred is very difficult for me to do.

10 A Song That Makes You Fall Asleep
9 Apr 201030 Days of Music: 10 A Song That Makes You Fall Asleep
Air – All I Need (Youtube, audio only)
I can’t imagine there are many bands that would want their music to send people to sleep. Listening to a band’s music as you drift off to sleep is another matter entirely, though.

The Killers – Mr. Brightside (Youtube)
