Six For Friday

Ah...it's Friday. Rather braindead, but thought I would share half a dozen good songs with you:

Melys -Chinese Whispers.' mp3

Panda Bear -'Comfy In Nautica.' mp3

Billy Bragg -'Greetings To The New Brunette.' mp3

Luke Haines -'Going Off My Rocker At The Art school Bop.' mp3

iLIKETRAINS -'Spencer Perceval.' mp3

Woody Guthrie -'This Land Is Your Land.' mp3

Hope you have a good weekend...and cheers to the lovely Mrs. 17 seconds, as we have now been together for three years!

In memory of Fopp

(This is meant to represent the sun setting on Fopp. :-(( )

Frankly gutted by Fopp's closure but if you want to try and do something, then there is a MySpace site: www.myspace.com/helpsavefopp

Have been trying to work out what songs remind me of Fopp, whether it was things that I bought there as a customer, or remember from working there.

Seven years of going makes it too hard to narrow it down that much, but this is a selection. As always, if you like what you hear, go and support your local shop, we do not need any more repeats of this.


Battles-'Atlas.' mp3

Futureheads-'Hounds Of Love.' mp3

iLIKETRAINS-'Spencer Perceval.' mp3

Justice-'Waters Of Nazareth.' mp3

The View-'Superstar Tradesman.' mp3

It would be more but I am just about to exceed my bandwith, so more on this very soon! And yes, I may have posted these before, but hey...

Three more for you! (part three)

Ok, not a long post as I am shattered, if pleasantly so.

Basically, just three tracks I really like at the moment. These can all be found on iTunes or try Amazon:

First up: So, it got to No.1. So, it features Nelly furtado and Justin Timbalake. And? Your point is...?

Timbaland-Give It To Me.' mp3

this is gorgeous- and it came out on yummy 10" vinyl. If you choose to buy it onvinyl instead of CD or download, more power to you. The cassette may be officially dead, but vinyl is still there. Yeah...oh, and Manic Pop Thrills were bigging this up as well.

iLIKETRAINS-'Spencer Perceval.' mp3

Finally, 'cos demented is how I feel...presenting: Battles (not to be confulsed with Battle, who are also very good, but different)

Battles-'Atlas.' mp3

As ever, support the artists, if you like the music, go and buy it.
