Nice one, Simone, I'm impressed with your slightly left-field choices. Especially happy to see Just Like Heaven up there. A great little pop song. I like Charlotte Sometimes a lot too, and the cool early 80's vibe of the film clip. Awesome. And while I despise saxophones, that solo in A Night Like This is great. Mine:
1.Love Song 2.A Strange Day 3.10:15 on a Saturday Night 4.Just Like Heaven 5.A Forest
Pretty tough, though. Lot's of ones could've been in there. fascination Street, Boy's Don't Cry, Lullaby, M, Catch etc.
oh yeah, he's a fantastic lyricist. In my angsty late teens I printed out all the lyrics from faith, 17 seconds, p'grapghy, disintegration and absolutely loved them, just used to read them all the time. Great stuff, just as poetry without music.
Great stuff. Thanks for that.

A Forest is fantastic. I went to a concert in 91 or 92 and they played a forest for 20+ minutes.
ReplyDeleteI had forgotten 'a strange day'. Love it. How does he write lyrics like that?
