Trail Trash is great, I've been on a Summertime kick too. God, what a great band.

Hey Mercedes - Quality Revenge at Last

Great song, but picking a single song from this CD is almost an injustice to the CD.

Thank God someone else here likes them. I tried really hard to get it down to one song per band, an they were definitely the hardest.

Have you heard the song Whenever You See Fit? It was only released on 12" as a collaboration with 764-HERO. It is the most amazing MM song around. And...it's around 15 minutes long. It sounds as if you like their earlier stuff, so you may want to look this one up.

Wrong Belle and Sebastian song. The right answer is either Electronic Renaissance, Lazy Line Painter Jane, or Sleep the Clock Around.

All acceptable. Others that barely missed the cut were Dirty Dream #2, I'm Waking Up To Us, and Get Me Away From Here I'm Dying.

I too couldn't decide on a New Pornographers song, but it might have been The Laws Have Changed.

Sheriff -- 3 Wedding Present songs, and none of them are Kennedy? Are you daft?

I was glad to see James represented later on. Though I'd have picked Lost a Friend or Laid.

My Stone Roses entry would have been Elephant Stone, probably just for those three drum beats in the chorus.

Yes, good choice. Although, I'm a huge fan of On Your Own and End of a Century

IndieMatty · #**159** 02-03-2005, 04:46 PM

Unrelated, but I'd like to add Elliott Smith - Needle in the Hay and Kings of Convenience - Failure to my list. I'd figure I'd reply to you PJ.

I'm fairly certain it wouldn't make my top 10 of Wedding Present songs, and I still love it! Picking 3 was nearly as hard as restricting myself to 2 Pixies songs.
