3. Lou Reed - Perfect Day : One of the greatest example of Lou Reed's fabulous song-writing ability. This song is so evocative.

4. Pink Foyd - See Emily Play : One of their more conventional pop songs, during the Syd Barrett era. The song is just a brilliant gem from their Pipers album.

5. Primal Scream - Velocity Girl : Before they were known for dance-pop, they wrote perhaps the perfect straight-ahead guitar pop song. This wasn't on any of their main albums...it was included on a compilation tape that the New Musical Express magazine sent out to subscribers in 1986.

6. Serge Gainsbourg - Ford Mustang : Serge Gainsbourg wrote jazzy vocal pop songs in French that largely involved themes of sex and glamour. This was one of the songs he sang with Jane Birkin. I think it is very stylish.

7. Suede - Down : Not one of Suede's most famous songs, but perhaps one of their very best. Highly melodic and compelling. Lyrically great and evocative, too.

8. Boy George - Bow Down Mister : Just an incredibly infectious song. Cute, amusing lyrics. Indian mysticism has been a part of pop music since the Beatles.

9. Teenage Fanclub - Straight & Narrow : This isn't one of their famous songs (in circles where the Fannies are famous, as mainstream hit-making fame somehow eluded them despite being one of the most accomplished song-writing groups ever) but I think it is their best. Perfect melody and harmonies.

10. Paul Oakenfold - Southern Sun : I opened this compilation with a lovely electronic track, and I'll close it with another. A dreamy trance song, with the typically great production of Oakenfold.

Comments welcome. A bit poppy, but quite good pop, in my opinion. I'm in a pop mood.
I have a few tracks but I will give this a listen.

ALL THE M's


Instead of thinking of a theme, I thought what the hell. I will look at what M's are on my MP3 player and choose a track from each band (12 tracks but feck it) so here we go:

1) Melt Banana- Shield For Your Eyes, A Beast

A simple groovy guitar riff kicks off. So far so normal, then the kooky childlike female vocals kick in and the tempo explodes. Punctured with electronic manipulation and you get the magnificent Melt Banana. If you don't like this then you hate music.

2) My Bloody Valentine- Lose My Breath

A simple monotonous acoustic riff played behind Belinda's slow hazy drawl. Possibly my favourite MBV track.

3) Mother Tongue- Burn Baby

Got ya. A band I am always banging on about are here in all their skanky dirty rock blues swagger. Listen to that amazing drum roll at 2:20 , then PM me for the album

4) Maudlin Of The Well- Heaven And Weak

Before Kayo Dot there was MOTW and mighty fine they were too. This slow builder is one of the more mainstream tracks they did. It has the feel of a classic rock track then it hits the half way point and decides to become a Thrash Metal track before ending with some awesome riffing. Delicious.

5) Mos Def- Zimzallabim

The guitars come out and add a barbed intensity to Mos Def's effortless flow. 'The New Danger' is a stupendously good Rap album.

6) Mindless Self Indulgence- Molly

Love them or hate them but MSI peddle an infectious electro punk wackout noise and their energy is evident on this live track. Is Molly a Liar?

7) Mass- Elephant Talk

Post Punk minimalism that creeps insidiously into your head even if you don't want it there. That creepy church organ does'nt help much either but it's certainly effective.

8) Mice Parade- Milton Road

Duelling acoustic guitars make a stand off while the most gorgeous distorted guitar throws it's hat into the ring. Metaphorically speaking of course. No vocals or percussion the hypnotic guitar lines ensure it's own particular rythmn.

9) Mount Eerie- No Flashlight

Before Bon Iver retreated into the mountains for solitude, Mount Eerie was already there making a sublime melancholic album of which this simple acoustic piece is it's calling card.

10) Melody Gardot- Love Me Like A River Does

I will love her however she wants me. A lot of Female Jazz vocalist leave me cold with their coffee shop banality. Not this little beauty. This is old school Jazz. Deliciously late night smoke material. Move over Winehouse, this is how it's done.

11) Masters Of Reality- Kill The King

The masterful Chris Goss at his laconic best. Damn fine stoner blues rock that begins with a simple acoustic guitar/ piano riff and then the groove come sin and what a riff. how I love the first MOR album. Great great Rock music.

12) Meat Puppets-I'm A Mindless Idiot

Cow Punk is what best describes MP, although this guitar picking track is one of their lighter tracks. A great jaunty number to finish things off.

Seriously though, i'll probs make this my night-time listening. I'm sure you've heard me bang on about the Melt Banana track, it's simply one of the greatest things i've ever heard.

No this is from MP3 player only and it get's changed around every couple of month's. If I did M's from my entire collection it would be at least a 100 track comp lol.

I guess it' time i make a proper comp.

i wanted to make i like jackhammer's with one letter...but i couldn't do that so instead i went with "ABC"

1.girl's not grey-afi
not only is it a great song but also it told me afi could still rock
2.(antichrist telivision blues)-the arcade fire
my 8th grade writing teacher got me into the arcade fire and there songs like this really stick out to me because i can really relate to a lot of neon bible
3my body is a cage-the arcade fire
I'm standing on a stage
Of fear and self-doubt
It's a hollow play
But they'll clap anyway

4.i would be sad-the avett brothers
cheesey love song thats actually appealing...i love it
5.(pop)ular science-bayside
Nothing feels right,
But my fake smiles paint pictures like everything's fine.
Sheep like what they're told,
So they've got spindles spinning bad songs into gold.
And who decides what's wrong or right to like?

6.Girl is on my mind-the black keys
really who can't relate to this song at one time or another?
7.reckless abandon-blink-182
always bring back great summer memories
8.magazines-brand new
same as #6 really
9.the velorium camper I: Faint of Heart-Coheed and Cambria
this song(minus the necrophilia) is one that i can really relate to except maybe not to that level of freakiness
10.mistaken i.d.-citizen cope

it's still uploading so ill post the link in a little while

I think you're right. I've always notice that I have more M bands in my collection than anything else. I've always wondered why there are so many of them.

This was absolutely insane and i loved it. Some songs try to take a u-turn and end up ****ing up but this was brilliant and kept me on my toes. Really enjoyed Mother Tongue too and i think i should pay more attention to Melody Gardot too, nice work!
