Whenever I'm listening to music or putting together I playlist I somehow always manage to get Josie by Glorious Sons in there somehow. I think it's the line about her being born with a little trouble in her eye that just gets me..
So what song do you always have in the back of your head that others don't really know... (Or a little known band that you damn well love)
Looking forward to hearing about a few songs I've never heard and getting to hear them ... |

Moi Lolita- Alizee
It made it to the U.K. charts in the 90’s and is completely in French but Alizee is/was a great artist and well know in France.
I bought her album from HMV and absolutely loved it. It helps that she is beautiful also  |

"I lived - one republic
Savage garden - affirmation
Strong choices girly!"
Feel good songs about loving life, making the most of it - makes my heart soar!  |

Missin’ Yo’ Kissin’ |
Scorpions (German Band) - "No One Like You" Album: "Blackout" Bought it twice on record & once on CD.
Brilliant to run, drive, punch, row, get rid of agression to.
Dual guitars at the beginning. Crunching rhythm with lots of melody.
Don't get me started on the video.... It's like German humour meets Spinal Tap. It's an appauling piece of work but it's so bad it's good! Know what I mean Harry? I cry with laughter every time I see it....
The last bit where he wakes up from a nightmare and you see his 80's underpants on while he looks out on Alcatrazz is priceless!!!!

Oh god! This gives me bad flashbacks from my first real boyfriend. He loved the Scorpions. I hated them  |

"People possibly know it, but Turn me on by Norah Jones, tbh I love the whole come away with me album
Loved this album too "
It's an amazing album. First heard it years ago after spending the night with a girl I met on the night bus. She played along on the piano whilst I made hangover brekkie.. |

"This week's one is an oldie but probably not well known
Dead From the Waist Down by Catatonia
Oh Frida! I adore Cerys. Saw them years ago. Her voice is out of this world. Xx"
I'm from the same part of the world as Cerys and my accent isn't that dissimilar. Though I can't sing for toffee |

Literally anything by Al Bowlly or Helen Forrest. Although someone recently murdered "Close Your Eyes" - that was an ordeal to listen to anytime I had no control over the music
People perhaps might know some of those songs if they watch adaptions of Agatha Christie perhaps. "Love Is The Sweetest Thing" definitely featured in one of them.
"I Can't Resist You" sounds so perfectly kinky to me, "On A Slow Boat To China" is another favourite. |

The late Peter Skellen used to do a good rendition of Love is the Sweetest Thing. |

There and to the left a bit |
Everyone knows Madness for their nutty singles and equally nutty videos from the 80s...but not many know this 9 minute 42 second journey around London which shows them in a very different light....The Liberty Of Norton Folgate...

Seagull by Saturday Sun.
Saw them utterly by accident at a curious little folk night in a church hall. They totally blew me away!
The singer has an amazing voice and is a super talented chap, although he also seems to be an utter dick. |

Us3 - I got it goin on
They had a couple of big hits in the early nineties I think that made them big for a while. A mix of reggae, blues, rap , I just love the fusion of the whole album but this is my favourite |

I found myself singing a song (rap) in the office the other day and my team looked at me like I was from space! Apparently it missed them entirely
Biggy - warning. |

your taste is impeccable - I havent thought about US3 in years - I think they will get a spin today !
I'm going to have to put most of this into an epic FAB playlist if I get chance. Some right crackers in this thread !

I’m glad you approve, you probably wouldn’t if you heard me trying to sing along with it (aka murdering a good tune). I just totally love all the horns in the whole album, how can anyone not like that sound |

I was obsessed with us3 when I was younger. My dad would play them in the car all the time |

"Starless" by King Crimson. Every single time I hear the lyrics it sends a shiver down my spine.
"Sundown dazzling day
Gold through my eyes
But my eyes, turned within,
only see
Starless and Bible black" |

"Yonaka:
Guilty
Death by Love
Teach me to Fight"
Yonaka are absolutely amazing! I went to see them two years ago in Brixton with a Fab friend and it was so good. F.W.T.B is one of my favourite songs and was epic live. |

Jealous! I've never been to a concert before as only got into music the past few years but Yonaka are the one of the bands I plan on seeing soon when allowed to.
I do like the Grandson remix of F.W.T.B as well |
