Guest bluesxman Posted November 17, 2005 Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 Random songs that come to mind that I really like from this period and think were all singles (don't buy singles often and don't pay too much attention really), pish and tish to top ten lists -Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - Nature Boy/There She Goes (My Beautiful World)Johnny Cash - HurtInterpol - Slow Hands/EvilCooper Temple Clause - Who Needs Enemies?Kings Of Leon - Molly's Chambers/Four KicksBlack Rebel Motorcycle Club - Love BurnsGoldfrapp - Strict Machine/TwistJon Spencer Blues Explosion - Sweet and SourOasis - Importance Of Being Idle (best song they've done in years)Editors - MunichLow - CanadaColdplay - The ScientistYeah Yeah Yeahs - Date With The Night/MapsQueens Of The Stone Age - Go With The Flow/No-One Knows/Little SisterDesert Sessions featuring PJ Harvey - Crawl HomeIan Brown - F.E.A.RKelis - MilkshakeNirvana - You Know You're Right (was this acually a single?)Franz Ferdinand - MatineeThe Killers - All These Things That I Have DoneThe Libertines - Can't Stand Me Now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Temple Posted November 17, 2005 Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 Thinking about this kept me up last night (as it does everynight, really), and in the shower this morning I too remembered Maps, and it all fell into place:-1, Apply Some Pressure - Maximo Park2, Bandages - Hot Hot Heat3, No Good Advice - Girls Aloud4, Bohemian Like You - The Dandy Warhols5, The Shy Retirer - Arab Strap6, Do You Want To - Franz Ferdinand (I can't help but feel this is the high watermark of pop)7, Float On - Modest Mouse8, Somebody Told Me - The Killers9, Maps - Yeah Yeah Yeahs10, Toxic - Britney Spears (likely to be omitted when I can think of something equally as great that some scallies in a garage came up with, rather than a group of professional songwriting boffins)The resemblance to Larsen B's list is a result of great minds thinking alike, rather than conferring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the first time I heard it on the radio, I thought Oasis had just made a cracking comeback single....Is their second album any good?

Whatever Happened To My Rock 'N' Roll - Black Rebel Motorcycle Club10. Remember Me - British Sea PowerI would agreee with most of these, but if ur talkin poppy tunes what about the Scissor Sisters?

Hope of the States - Black Dollar Bills2. Mansun - I Can Only Disappoint U3. Arab Strap - The Shy Retirer 4. At the Drive-In - One Armed Scissor5. Mew - Comforting Sounds6. Morrissey - Irish Blood, English Heart7. Modest Mouse - Float On8. Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Maps9. Hot Hot Heat - Bandages10. Maximo Park - Apply Some Pressure Note: edited for inclusion of bandages and now maps[/quote']You reviewed the entire century and came up with that?
