For some reason I'm particularly keen on Sophie Ellis-Bextor's Murder on the Dancefloor at the moment. No idea why but it did just turn 20 years old.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

Do you mean muhdah on the donce floor? I love that too. She does some great Covid streams with her kids discoing in their home.

Thanks everyone for all these suggestions, some really interesting stuff here (and some shite 😂)

Can I introduce you to Deluxe? Been really enjoying their stuff recently, but they don't seem to tour much

  • A Long December (Counting Crows)

  • Soul Asylum's cover of Rhinestone Cowboy.

The former is ever relevant, the latter is somehow both a total reimagining of the song and true to the original.

Yeah, I date myself with both of those. Yeah, I was probs in HS for both of them.

That, and Good Riddance / Time of your Life (Greenday). I understand it was supposed to be a sarcastic dig at a woman. But that's not how audiences largely heard it, and it became the legit, totally unironic anthem of a certain generation that I am abs not a part of.

Also... There's a completely random punk band no one but me has ever heard of (Ruth Ruth), and their album Laughing Gallery has been by my side at some of my lowest points over the years. Wish I could let 'em know the impact they had in making sure I pushed through some of the worst periods.

Mötorhead - Mötorhead

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

i've been getting back into Big Band Swing in general, but Andy Kirk and the Twelve Clouds was a special group, and one of their pianists Mary Lou Williams was a true pioneer of jazz solo improvisation.. still mind blowing to hear..

Walkin' and Swingin' is a good one..

Close to Five is just badass

Rewatching HIMYM and this song is now stuck in my head again
Simple Song - The Shins

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Biggest Ball of Twine in Minnesota, by Weird Al. It's such a fun painting of Midwest American culture

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago
[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

I’ve had Meat Magnet by Escuela Grind in heavy rotation since it came out recently. I’m not usually into grindcore but this song is catchy as hell.

[–] GarytheSnail 2 points 11 months ago

Hot Mulligan - John "The Rock" Cena, Can You Smell What The Undertaker

Whole album is so good. I didn't think I'd ever like screamy music but it is not overdone.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Hero too - chrissy costanza as kyoka jiro

if you watched the MHA school festival arch, this song will hit extra hard.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Entire album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess by Chappell Roan. I don't like every song, but most. It's a lot of fun.

Also the song Grown Up by Raffaella makes me laugh.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Samara Joy - A Joyful Holiday

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

The Rigs - Devil's Playground

Not a very well known band but the song has a great atmosphere. I'm writing an act to it right now
