The Yeah Yeah Yeah's "Maps." The video is on their website, too. That's where I've been today when I wasn't screwing around here (or doing about ten total minutes of actual work).

dave225, i agree: there's something about Spoon songs that stick in your head for days. Pop classicism or something.

for me:
Ed Rush: Cells
Afuken: Psychometry
Wedding Present: My Favourite Dress

Mood Mosaic - A Touch Of Velvet, A Sting Of Brass

― eleki-san (eleki-san), Friday, 13 February 2004 22:24 (twenty-two years ago)

I cannot stop listening to "Centuries of Sin" off the new Probot album. Hearing Cronos sing again brought me right back to those acne-speckled days of metalheaded adolescence.

― Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 13 February 2004 22:24 (twenty-two years ago)

"Kneeknocker" by Particle, from their upcoming LP. I keep thinking UFOs are landing outside.

― janni (janni), Friday, 13 February 2004 22:48 (twenty-two years ago)

It's a tie!

Either Dear Nora's "Springtime Fall" (a glorious rip-off / appropriation of the Beatles' "And I Love Her") or Dimmer's "Drop You Off" (which has me thinking that I might wanna schtupp (sic) Shayne Carter).

― Donna Brown (Donna Brown), Saturday, 14 February 2004 00:05 (twenty-two years ago)

I don't know if its kicking my ass per se, but I actually listen to Tal Bachman's "She's So High" all the way through when it comes up on the radio (which is surprisingly often). I'm trying to figure out why.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Saturday, 14 February 2004 00:06 (twenty-two years ago)

R. Kelly's "Step in the Name of Love (Remix)," one of the best pure R&B singles of the past 12 months. Which I just got into this week, 'cause I'm a dork.

― Thomas Inskeep (submeat), Saturday, 14 February 2004 00:22 (twenty-two years ago)

Barry: have you heard any newer Curve?
Yeah, I've heard all their albums. Only half of "Gift" is any good, but that half kicks my ass every time. It kicked my ass in 2001, and I listened to it for the first time in ages last night and it kicked my ass while I slept and into the morning.

Cristina "The Lie Of Love." When I first got the two Cristina reissues, I was very focused on the dance numbers, but this ballad has grown on me in a major way. Highly recommended.

The Kink Kronikles has been kicking my ass for the past 2 weeks or so..

― billstevejim (billstevejim), Friday, 3 June 2005 19:09 (twenty years ago)

The Bad Plus's version of Queen's We are the champions (from the Blunt Object live album) - the track begins as though Freddie Mercury were in fact Erik Satie.

The audience whoops periodically as the trio rend the song asunder. I think there should be more sophisty-jazz versions of pomp-rock classics. Pater-rock!

― paul c (paul c), Friday, 3 June 2005 19:19 (twenty years ago)

― Orbit (Orbit), Saturday, 4 June 2005 02:01 (twenty years ago)

The Chills' "Pink Frost". Don't ask how I managed to avoid hearing this until three weeks ago but I haven't been able to stop listening since. I have to play it like five times a day. I haven't been this obsessed with a song in years.

― Ryan Pitchfork, Saturday, 4 June 2005 02:09 (twenty years ago)

I just rediscovered "Christbait Rising" by Godflesh and I'm happy to report that it's aged like a fine bordeaux (menacing, fucking EVIL bordeaux, as it were)
