Everybody has that one song that they play until their ears bleed, share them here.

My current is Hold me Now by the Polyphonic spree.

Abe Lincoln. Seriously, I've been listening to it ever since it appeared on SA.

Also, lots of Biffy Clyro lately. And Drive Like Jehu, especially Super Unison.

...Aaaaaabe Lincoln, I've got a lincoln log. Aaaaaabe Lincoln, I'm on penny.

Spiff? From PEEL (and elsewhere), I presume. An odd coincedence, though not too baffling.

Well, I came here to announce that these days, I listen to:

Naked Lunch - King George
Jeff Buckley - I Know We Could Be So Happy, Baby (If We Wanted To Be)
Mew - Special
Mew - Panda

...and Shellac's "1000 Hurts" (thanks to the aforementioned above poster, actually), since I haven't been able to order "At Action Park" on vinyl anywhere. Also, I ordered "Ride The Skies" about five months ago, and if I could, I'd listen to that a whole buncha lot.

Quote from: Pikka Bird

Jeff Buckley - I Know We Could Be So Happy, Baby (If We Wanted To Be)

Ooh. Nice.

Some of mine, as of right now:

Looks Just Like the Sun - Broken Social Scene
Skin is, My - Andrew Bird
Out of Sight/Kicked it in the Sun/Untrustable Pt.2 (About Someone Else) - Built to Spill : these three must be listened to in succession.
Hopeless - The Wrens
Yellow Country Teeth - Clap Your Hands Say Yeah!
Horn in the Middle - Nujabes
Love Love Love - The Mountain Goats

I actually listen almost non-stop to both of the Andrew Bird albums that I have. Lately I have been binging on The Mountain Goats too.

Heh, slowly but surely, PEELers are invading. Robiben is hiding here somewhere too.

Also, this is somewhat surprising, I have to say.

edit: Pikka: If you want the vinyl version of At Action Park and can't find it anywhere, check out www.greenhell.de - it's where I order most of my CDs, they have it. And they ship to Denmark as well. It's well worth it, At Action Park is an incredibly good album.

Peck · « **Reply #20 on:** 08 Sep 2005, 18:05 »

These three songs I could listen to for hours, and tonight, I think I may.

Decemberists - Song For Myla Goldberg
Letters To Cleo - Pete Beat
Raveonettes - Remember

Pikka Bird · « **Reply #21 on:** 08 Sep 2005, 18:08 »

@Spiff: That sounds like wisdom, but for the warning in my head. You see, the Danish postal service are known to mistreat whatever they can get their hands onto, so a vinyl album in the mail would probably get shattered pretty effectively. How do they (Greenhell) package vinyls?

SpacemanSpiff · « **Reply #22 on:** 08 Sep 2005, 18:10 »

No idea, I must admit that, while I'll lose indie points here, I hardly ever order vinyl. But they package their CDs in tons of paper and bubble wrap or whatever they happen to have there and then in a box.
Nothing they've sent to me (and I ordered tons of stuff) was damaged so far.

Edit: Adding to my list:
JR Ewing - Repition Is Failure
Jawbox - For Your Own Special Sweetheart (the whole damn album)

Pikka Bird · « **Reply #23 on:** 08 Sep 2005, 18:22 »

I just started getting vinyls recently when my dad brought home a (destroyed) player. I have a few good ones so far, and I can list them all from memory:

Jeff Buckley - "Grace"
Roxette - "Look Sharp" (the first one I got- mostly because of nostalgia and the fact that it cost $1.5)
QOTSA - "Rated 'R'" (Ltd. Gatefold with plenty of mammaries inside the cover (which I knew nothing of before purchasing it, of course))
Portishead - S/T
Patti Smith - "Trampin'"
The Velvet Underground - The banana one...

seconded.

Lately..."Lucky Charm" and "Further North" by Jets to Brazil have been seeing a few plays; "Sick of Modern Art" by the Explosion was my song for today. Songs that I could listen to over and over at anytime though, those would be "Public Witness Program", "Do You Like Me", "Argument"...um, a lot of Fugazi songs. Walking Concert's "The Animals", Ted Leo/rx "Squeaky Fingers", "The High Party", and the entire new Suicide Machines album...quite a few songs, really.

Broken Social Scene - 7/4 (Shoreline) Started listening to it when that copy of the live version came out and even more when the actual track was released.
