Beatles - Let it Be (album) (F***ing awesome as always)
Beatles - Rubber soul (Just love the attitude in it)

Have you caught the new tribute album to Rubber Soul? It's called This Bird Has Flown and it's a whole bunch of cool artists doing the entire album track-by-track as a tribute ...it's been 40 years since Rubber Soul was released...it's the feature album on Triple J this week and sounds pretty good from what I've heard

This is the track listing

01 Drive My Car - The Donnas
02 Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown) - The Fiery Furnaces
03 You Won't See Me - Dar Williams

10 I'm Looking Through You - Ted Leo
11 In My Life - Ben Lee
12 Wait - Ben Kweller

Nah hadn't seen.  Good to see an album that is 40 years old can still be in the media in the week i mention it though .  And a damn good album too.  Not sure i want to hear Ben Lee singing beatles though.  Could seriously damage some songs .

1. Kate DeAraugo - Faded
2. Ricki Lee - Breathe
3. Lee Harding - Wasabi
4. Yellow Card - Lights and Sounds
5. Lindsay Lohan - Confessions of a Broken heart (that one surprised me too)

Substance-80s New Order- love Bizarre Love Triangle
Visage-best of
Duran Duran(anything)

Buying soon (maybe) Rio -duran
                              Priest=Aura-Church

If you listen to podcasts at all fajo there's one called Old Wave Radio New 80's Music that you would probably enjoy...modern, indie artists but the songs are very reminiscent of the 80's.  It's funky.

As for me this week I've been playing my new purchases that I bought for my 6 months of having quit smoking...Tea & Sympathy from Bernard Fanning and You Could have it So Much Better by Franz Ferdinand.

But I did hit my 80's playlist in my iPod a coupla times last week...some great stuff there

I know there are lots of 80s influenced artists going around but havent heard much of it. Used to listen to net radio quite a bit. lots of 80s stations around on the net that play the good stuff not the usual crapola the 80s are associated with

Does it have to be something from now??? Coz I hate nearly all current Top 40 stuff...

1.  Dr Hook
2.  Meatloaf
3.  Peter Gabriel
4.  Kate Bush
5.  Moody Blues

*ROCK ON!*  

Didn't put a top 5 before, I'll go on recent listening cos all time is too much compare. So in order of most played first...

Sigur Ros - Takk... (still gets better with every listen, and is stored in the cd player)
Oasis - What's the Story (old, but still rocks when you crank it)
Beatles - Let it Be
Pink Floyd - The Final Cut

Don't really have a 5th main one at moment. With the Beatles and Rubber Soul have got a decent run recently. Recovering the Satellites occasionally also.

5) Because Of You - Kelly Clarkson
4) If You Wanna Have Some Fun - Spice Girls
3) The Special Two - Missy Higgins

Whats your top five fave songs of 2008?  I know my top couple or so but will have to give thought to the next few.

So far thinking ...Stop And Stare - One Republic might be my top one..

I actually change my mind a lot, like when I find a new good song I get over the old ones a bit.

Grannynizer - Agnes Georgina
Hooker Face - Agnes Georgina
Hollaback Hag - Agnes Georgina
I'm Too Sexy - Agnes Georgina
I Kissed A-gnes - Dara

I Kissed A-gnes - Dara
Lolol!


I kissed Agnes and I hated it
The taste of her wrinkled skin
I kissed Agnes just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don't mind it
It felt so wrong
It felt so gross
No way I'm in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I hated it
I loathed it

You could've at least made it rhyme.....

Well I actually did the entire song (rhyming!) but I thought it was a bit wrong  

Let's hear it.

I deleted it, I just wrote them out in the quick reply box Lets just say it was very.. descriptive
