Hey, cheers for that track.  It was a very much needed brain cleanse right now.  I've got her second album, but you've inspired me to listen to the other two.

J'ai Vu Le Loup?

I only heard of her last week. Linked from something else. I'm going to get her first album from ebay, will let you know when I do.

Nana Mouskouri did a version of L'Amour de Moy. Woefully inferior, and my tolerance of easy listening schmaltz is much higher than it used to be.

Relax
One of those songs you can't stop listening to when you come across it (oo'er).

Mountain Goats - Damn These Vampires

Why didn't anyone tell me about the Mountain Goats earlier?

Have had this banger on repeat tonight as a 'fixing the bike'[nb]not a euphemism[/nb] soundtrack.

I never listen to a song 5 times in a row. It's very rare that I would listen to the same song twice in a day - I would find that annoying. So it's remarkable that this little earworm 'Tessa Violet - Crush' got played at least three times in the same 24-hour period by me.

Just discovered this charming bunch:

Leisure Class - I Love You More

I think I've listened to it about ten times in the last 24-hour period.

Incredible:

Been rinsing Ethiopian singer Aster Aweke recently.  She's got the kind of plaintive voice I could live in, although her backing bands could be a bit chintzy.  Do like this 1983 album in particular a lot, though, even with the toy shop drum machine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Yni1JK9yeQ

Kinda addicted to Haruomi Hosono's Sports Men at the moment.  Hadn't heard it before a few days ago. It's the most Singly sounding Album track of all time.  I love popsongs that have a bit of a wistful edge to them.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cqdv032mFbg

EDIT: Ah, apparently it was a single, just an entirely unsuccessful one.

EDIT 2: No it wasn't.  The above edit was fake news apparently- it's still just an album track.  While I'm here, uh...apparently Hosono's granddad was the only Japanese man to survive the sinking of the Titanic.

properly obsessed with the new Ariel Pink tune and accompanying video (actually very old, it's an outtake from The Doldrums), dig the spooky atmospheric mouth noises especially

Ariel Pink - Burned Out Love

Been playing this lovely, sylvan album of ambient pop from a Russian musician called Katya Yonder multiple times today (out officially in three days), but especially this particular cut: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=noONOuzuIng

"Come To Milton Keynes" by The Style Council

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eweq1pnVOF0

I watched half of that Sky Arts documentary on the Style Council and having previously ignored them because I thought they were a fey coffee boys band. I was wrong and I admit it.

Thanks to a Twitter mutual posting it, "Yes" by McAlmont & Butler. I listened to it out of curiosity and once it got to the chorus I thought "oh, it's thaaaat! Wow, I haven't heard that in yonks". You never really seem to hear it on the radio nowadays for some reason, but what a song. McAlmont has an incredible voice, doesn't he? It's a wonder he never became more famous.

Mary Komasa - Degenerate Love

I can't but help feel it's a rip off of something, Turbulence by Arab Strap? iamamiwhoami? Something that got 4 points in Eurovision 2014 Dunno.

Magma - Félicité Thosz - Teha

the whole composition is incredible but this part's particularly heavenly.

Joe Jackson - Anger

Didn't know much about Joe Jackson apart frmo Steppin' Out, but if someone had told me this was Joe Jackson, I'd never have believed 'em! Absolutely cracking track!

Bridey Murphy The Time Has Come

Made up of Waddy Wachtel and a few Cowsill brothers the recording session for this single was notable for Bill Cowsill trying to eat the master tape whilst under the influence of 'substances'.

A banger nonetheless worth repeating.
