This song, I keep listening to it. I used to work at her old school and they played her songs in the admin office with effusive pride, it was very sweet

Exile is fucking amazing. That whole record is fucking amazing.

Her new vid running around Old Street and Dalston etc makes me miss London nights out very a lot.

don’t know any cool new music like I used to :frowning:

lost my cool factor!

My current earworm is this:

It’s a great piece of music, but I have to make up my own lyrics for it to be a ‘song’.

This came on shuffle when I was for a run this morning, been in my head ever since

Imagine my delight to discover a music video full of those sweet sweet early 90s indie rock vibes :heart_eyes:

anyway listened to it and the piano is nice, sounds like Radiohead but the guy’s voice is a bit theatrical, plus there’s too many layers towards the end and it kind of makes the chorus seem a bit generic, would have been better if it stayed gentle instead of going for some epic feels

Still not found anything better than when I first heard this a couple of years ago

wish more people could do a slightly sinister tone without laying on too thick.

yeah it’s really great, there’s a few tracks towards the end I can’t be bothered with though

Give this a minute to kick in. Amazing weird 1972 jazz/rock/electronic hybrid

wow this is really something. Almost reminds me of Pavement from the weird vocal phrasing near the start. That weird atonal feedback around 3 mins is great too, so crunchy

I love the way the distorted vocals kind of bleed into the electronic (& guitar?) noise, sounds like processed vocals but I’m guessing you couldn’t do that at the time.

is there a whole album of this stuff? Maybe I should get into weird 70s electro funk soul sex jazz

It’s probably the best track on the album but actually, aside from a pointless cover of Love Me Tender, the whole album is great

It’s completely unlike anything else I know so that’s part of why I’m a bit obsessed with at the moment - always great to add something to your collection unlike anything else you have.

Very much enjoying repeat listens of this at the moment

I did wonder. Could you feed vocals through a moog at that point do you know?

This on repeat. Sounds a bit like Dusty Springfield fronting a mid nineties trip hop band. Actually from a 1971 Italian film soundtrack
