Apparently #musicmonday is a trending topic on the Twitters - bunch of bloody Johnny Come Latelys. Some of us have been here every Monday morning (for various definitions of 'every', 'monday' and 'morning'), mining the rich vein of at-least-a-deca...

Placebo - Nancy Boy Placebo - Pure morning Placebo - Running Up That Hill

Placebo are one of those bands that I always feel oddly guilty about enjoying which is odd because "Nancy Boy" is damn fine blistering 3 minute pop song which lovely crunchy guitars and a thumping bass line. I mean the video's a little bit "Art sc...

Sheryl Crow - All I Wanna Do

It turns out that Sedona in Phoenix is so unspeakably cinematic - with its soaring orange mesas and artistically arranged cacti silhouetted against the blazing sunset - that your brain can't actually deal with it and you just start thinking that ...

James - Laid (Version 2) James - Laid (Version 3)

Have you seen "24 Hour Party People"? You should, it's pretty good. It's about the rise and fall of the legendary Hacienda club in Manchester and the entwined Factory Records which was home to acts like Joy Division, New Order, The Happy Mondays a...

Tori Amos - Professional Widow (Armand's Star Trunk Funkin' Mix) Tori Amos - Professional Widow

Well, fuck me rigid - this is the 100th 90s Music Monday. Who knew I had that kind of staying power - if you'd asked me 2 years ago I would have laid good odds that ADD would have got the better of me long before now. Either way - shouldn't I hav...

Suzanne Vega feat DNA - Tom's Diner Suzanne Vega - Tom's Diner Soul II Soul - Back To Life (However Do You Want Me)

Continuing the theme of "Obscure singles by women later remixed by semi-anonymous producers to become huge house hits" let's go with [flicks idly through big book of OSBWLRBSP] ... ooh, "Tom's Diner" by Suzanne Vega. Now this is a song which e...

So, after 3 months away I'm back with a head buzzing with ye olde 90s music - when file sharing meant a virgin stack of C90s, the highest compliment was getting a hand lettered and intricately decorated track listing replete with multiple inside j...

Jarvis Cocker Interrupts Michael Jackson's Earth Song 1996 Pulp -- Common People

Fine, I'll stick with Brit Pop if that's what you really want. What's that you say? You couldn't give two shits either way? Well, fine. I'll do it just to spite you instead then. The ludicrous thing is that many of the bands - Blur, Oasis, Pulp,...

Blur - Song 2

So, last week I did Oasis which, as part of the natural order of things, basically forces me to do Blur this week. The putative rivalry between the two bands reached its peak in 1995 when the media whipped up a frenzy when Blur's "Country House"...

Loaded_#1 Oasis - Supersonic Kevin & Perry - Manchester

Circa 1994 a magazine called Loaded ushered in a whole new era in British culture known, for want of a better word, as New Laddism. Subtitled "For men who should know better" Loaded represented the antithesis of the Sensitive New Age Guy stereoty...
