I still love that song. The shit covers don’t change how good it is for me - no matter how many shit drawings of birds I see I still think birds are cool.
Birds are shifty.
Oh yeah you can’t trust 'em at all. Cool little dudes though.
Fuck it let’s crack on with the top 20
Love the cheesy 80s synth on I’m Your Man. Lenny had a weird fascination with the worst synth sounds on earth I can only respect.
That’ll be you and me who voted for it then eh?
It’s what he opened with when I saw him at Glastonbury, and I remember being just blown away by the grace and charm and charisma of this man.
I thought there’d be enough DiSers who listened to ol’ Lenny as angsty teens to push Dress Rehearsal Rag a bit higher tbh
the sheer volume of excellent songs that didn’t even get a video posting is just ridiculous. what an incredible artist
Come on lads
Annoyed that I missed this somehow
Had a strong strong aversion to synth-era Len to begin with, but he brought me around. I now fully love those songs, synths and all. Although I can’t help but laugh a bit when something like Ain’t No Cure For Love kicks in, just the sudden cheesy whack of it.
Only 6 points for his best song? And 3 of those were from me?
wish I was at home, there’s a really good quote about this in Sylvie Simmons’ LC biography
best era, imo.
wonder if anyone kingmade “Steal My Sunshine”
Think Chelsea Hotel is the first of my votes to come up, but I have also forgotten my votes so who knows!?
CONFIRMED
They say you came and stole my sun
And I missed a million miles of fun
But you don’t really care for that it’s up for me do you?
