britpop flashback

Sep 07, 2006 15:13

I amused some people on their Myspace profiles with some Youtube old Britpop/UK indie love, so I'm doing the same here.

( Adorable, Sleeper, Shed Seven, Suede, Gene, Echobelly, Cast, Space, the Boo Radleys )

Throw me your matches, 'cause I like to burn stuff... vfc September 7 2006, 21:32:36 UTC

Damn. I thought I was the only person in America who listened to Sleeper and Echobelly. And "Wake Up Boo!" is one of my all-time favorite songs.

Hell no you weren't! Although I was pretty much the only one I knew who liked those bands then, too. That first Echobelly album is great, and I have a serious love for the Boo Radleys. Wake Up! is pretty much my favorite album of theirs behind "Everything's Alright Forever". But I might just like that album for nostalgia's sake.

I had the biggest thing for Louise Wener back in 1996/1997. I also really want the Snoopy shirt that the girl in the Metal Mickey video has on.

I feel like I should be able to recommend some Britpop shit, but can't. Ash? Space? Not really Britpop, but what about White Town's Your Woman?

Dude, EVERYBODY had a thing for Louise Wener. Her and Justine were THE girls.

Oooh, I'll definitely look up some Ash. I already have Space listed! It's that song with Cerys from Catatonia. But unfortunately I couldn't find any more of their videos.

I never saw most of these videos the first time around (no cable back then) but these songs are bringing so much back!

How about lush, elastica, supergrass, charlatans, kula shaker, menswe@r (haha), bis?

You know I still have Space's "Spiders"? And "Where Have You Been Tonight?" on 45 by Shed Seven. And "Goldfinger" autographed in gold marker by Tim from Ash (aka your ex-boyfriend). Pwease pwease Arrison, let's go meet some rock stars again. Lori-Jo even called me.

Love ya!
