There are 2 songs by Sebadoh and U2 that I've heard years ago which I'd like to hear again. The one by Sebadoh I'm fairly sure was on some EP I haven't been able to track down online. The one by U2 is from another EP my brother has (or used to have), so I should ask him. It was played on the radio.

You'd pick one of the worst Girls Aloud songs for this list? Crikey.

Well, yeah, since I don't like Spiderland and they released only two LP's, I guess it's not a band that I like very much... But, seriously, "Washer", it's a very good song actually, I could have put "the ending to Good Morning Captain" too.

90s indie special:

Stereophonics - Local boy in the photograph
60ft dolls - Happy Shopper
Bennet - Mum's gone to Iceland
Symposium - Drink the Sunshine
Ocean Colour Scene - The Riverboat Song (I completely missed how brilliant the drums are on this at the time)
Stone Roses - I am the Resurrection
Deus - Roses
Imperial Teen - You're a one
Ultrasound - Floodlit world
3 colours red - Nuclear Holiday

Honorary mention to Tiger's Shining in the Wood. I still quite like them in spite of evidence that they were probably a bit cack.

Actually, most of these are a bit cack really, aren't they? I was at a party on Friday with a load of kids who were 20-odd. They were all going on about how great the 90s were for music. I should really have given them a slap.

Edit: I was also trying to find a jangly indie number but I couldn't remember the name of the band - the chorus went 'she longs to be seen/ she's the summer holiday queen/ sitting in a cheap bikini/ swimming in the dirty sea' - anyone remember that one?

Edit 2: It was Posh, but I can't remember what the song was called. Boo.

[Glice]

Found it. Thanks, Google!

Edit: FUCK ME that's aged badly. I'm never being a teenager with a record player again.

Haha, yeah, I've noticed that it's a crime to dislike Spiderland Yeah, I dislike Spiderland and I like King of the Beach, how about that ?

[atsonicpark]

No crime, just bizarre. But to each their own. You'll come around! I've been obsessed with spiderland for ... in a few years, it'll be half my life... just... whoa.
