I know you hate Release, but you surely could have picked up some other track. E-Mail is brilliant, in my opinion.


I could've picked anything from Release :wink:

no, but seriously, I really dislike that one the most, with "You Choose" and "London" coming in close...


Not London, too! Since we're talking about Release, Love Is A Catastrophe is one of the very few Pet Shop Boys tracks I can't stand.

Since you're talkin about PSB... is Fundamental any good?

Sublime would be a more accurate description.

Whenever I listen to Luna Park (track #7), it reminds me of you, because I used to have a gig of Blur live at Luna Park in Argentina. Weird, I know. :lol:

What?! Go To Sleep is BRILLIANT. Not as strong as some of the other stuff off Hail To The Thief, but it's deffo not one of the worst Radiohead songs!

It could be an early REM song. Not worse but not brilliant.
But I know what you mean. I don't like Exit Music but I wouldn't call it worse.

Blur - Alex' song
Radiohead - Kid A

There are a lot of Radiohead songs I don't like that much on CD but they are gorgeous live. But Kid A is one of the songs I ALWAYS skip.

"Fundamental" is an excellent album, one of my favourites, and along with "Actually" their only album that's absolutely perfect from start to finish. If you buy it, try getting the version with the "Fundamentalism" bonus disc which has some great stuff on it as well.

Regarding "E-mail", there's one thing that I do like about it, and that's the punchline "send me an e-mail that says 'I love you'". Actually, it's a crappy line in itself, only I think this song was around the same time as the "I love you" virus, which, hopefully intentionally, adds some cool ambiguity.

I have only one problem with that song, which ruins it: the voice. The fucking robotic, monotonous voice.

The Divine Comedy - Note To Self
One of the only times hearing Neil swear is a bad thing.

Blur - Jubilee
Just annoying

Belle and Sebastian - Chickfactor
I like the lyrics but it's just so slow and boring

Exactly. And if they had replaced God Willing with Fugitive, it would have been a completely flawless album.

Actually, most of the stuff on Regeneration isn't quite what you'd describe as top notch.
