All Change

Does anybody still listen to Cast? I loved them. I still do.

I also loved Menswe@r so I don't know a whole lot.

Hit Wonder

Last night I was talking about how bad Modern English was beyond their one hit.

However, Big Country is better than their one hit.

Pinky



Tuscadero - My Way Or The Highway. AKA Music. Bargain bin.

Searching For the Light

Well not searching for Supertouch. But for years I casually sought out Pepe Deluxe. I forgot about them until recently, when I realized I could probably find their releases for dirt cheap these days. I was right.

Pepe Deluxe - Super Sound. Amazon.com. Used.

Score

I love when I find single one and single two in the same bargain bin adventure.

The Boo Radleys - Ride the Tiger (Single 1) (Single 2). AKA Music. Bargain bin.

The Ten

My goal is to post at least ten items today. I'm that far behind.

Morrissey - Piccadilly Palare. AKA Music. Bargain bin.

Boo

I like Marina & The Diamonds. I hate the two song compact disc single. Not this one. But in general.

Marina & The Diamonds - Oh No! Amazon.com. Used.

Wrong

I was singing the praises of Survival in a recent post. My friend said The Current was Outspoken at the top of their game.

Upon repeated listening of both, he might be right.

Outspoken - The Current. New Age Records. New.

Mystery Solved

When I picked the single up I couldn't for the life of me remember which album it came from.

With a little research I realized there wasn't one.

Morrissey - Sunny. AKA Music. Bargain bin.

K - K - K

Not that KKK. More K-Pop.

Miss A. - Step Up. iTunes.

Too Much

You don't actually realize how much Erasure material is out there until you attempt to buy it all.

Erasure - Star. Amazon.com. Used.

Ode

The Singles and Reality Bites soundtracks get too much credit. This is the real ode to the nineties.

Mallrats: Music From the Motion Picture. Amazon.com. Used.

New To Me

My Ministry listening had been limited to the releases up to and including Psalm 69. After that I lost interest. So now I'm exploring everything since. It's not as strong, but I can't say I'm disappointed. Although to be fair, I'm only one album deep into this new Ministry adventure.

Ministry - Filth Pig. Amazon.com. Used.

Back To Back

Ian to Ian.

Ian McCulloch - Lover, Lover, Lover. Amazon.com. Used.

Hits

Sure I have the tracks. But it's the completest in me.

Ian Brown - The Greatest. Amazon.com. Used.

Go Buy It

Beady Eye - Different Gear, Still Speeding. Amazon.com. Used.

Go Buy It

British Sea Power - Valhalla Dancehall. Amazon.com. Used.

Red Light Special

I was a T-Boz man. I suppose I still am.

Those wispy "sideburn" pieces. Hot damn.

TLC - CrazySexyCool. Amazon.com. Used.

Jesus Loves You

I will occasionally see songs off of this record attributed to "Jesus Loves You." Which after doing some research I discovered is what the album was listed as worldwide.

But let's be honest. It is and will always be a Boy George record.

Boy George - The Martyr Mantras. Amazon.com. Used.

Mother Russia

As part of my exploration of popular Russian music. Although I don't know if they are popular. So modern Russian pop music.

On-The-Go - One Spark. iTunes.

The Voice

Kelly Clarkson was a mentor on The Voice last night. I like that Kelly Clarkson. And she has an ass like a shelf. Or so I noticed last night.

Kelly Clarkson - Never Again. Amazon.com. Used.

Kids

I love the Kids layout of the EP.

Luna - Luna EP. Amazon.com. Used.

A Brief History Of

I have a real love of short-lived or go nowhere Xenomania projects.

Mini Viva comes to mind.

Mania is another.

Mania - Looking For A Place (Single 2). Amazon.com. Used.

Eras

They were one thing early on. They became another. I enjoy all aspects.

But the Everything Must Go and This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours era of their career is strongest. At least in my eyes.

Making An Effort

I'm making a serious effort here to catch up on my posts. And catching up on compact disc listening. And podcast listening. A wild Saturday night.

Throwing Muses - Freeloader. AKA Music. Bargain bin.

Where Did You Go?

Before I picked up the compact disc single I had Boxers on vinyl. Now I have no idea where it went.

There's a pretty good chance I sold it.

That being said. Phenomenal tune.

Morrissey - Boxers. AKA Music. Bargain bin.

Go Buy It

Pet Shop Boys - Yesterday When I Was Mad (Single 2). AKA Music. Bargain bin.

Deluxe

I already owned this single. But I like the deluxe packaging of this copy.

New Order - World (The Price of Love). AKA Music. Bargain bin.

Never Enough

People don't seem to listen to or appreciate the Cocteau Twins enough.

I don't feel like they ever have.

Maybe I'm just hanging out with the wrong people.

Cocteau Twins - Violaine (Single 2). AKA Music. Bargain bin.

(I originally had this tagged as "Single 1." You might want to correct it in your iTunes. I just did.)
