Keeping It Positive Week on ILM: Is there a greater indiepop single than "Sweeping the Nation" by Spearmint?

Even when you keep it positive you have to say "no"

They've released 8 albums!

Has there been a poll on this yet?

There has been a poll on THIS though!

Polling The Nation! (see, the song is called Sweeping the nation, you see what I did there?)

I vote for the hilariously alternately butthurt and delusional liner notes by Everett True and one of, I dunno, is it the Pastels or the Shop Assistants or someone like that?

Who is Micheal Bradshaw?

I have stood under the Byker Bridge many times, most often at The Cumberland Arms.

Would like to read those sleevenotes. Or maybe not.

Let's keep it positive tho'.

That Rough Trade comp has lots of the right bands but with quite odd song choices.

It is great, but Danes do it better.

Real talk about keeping it positive.

Here's the original version of the song Spearmint sampled, apparently performed by Dobie Gray in his nan's living room: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8-GC_vkAKw

Alphabeat are weird, it's like the popkids finally tore their masks off and went "Surprise! We we Camera Obscura fans all along!"

yeah, I've got that Rough Trade Indie comp.

Do I have it here? Hang on....

no.
