Shine 6: on and on and on and on and on and on

[atommickbrane.livejournal.com]

See, I loved My Life Story at the time! They had lots of violins! Cor, what is this new and exciting take on britpop! And they wore shiny shirts, which I believe was considered to be some kind of statement to image obsessed yoof! I bought their singles, oh yes, I even taped the alBUM of a friend, but in my later years I simply must ask myself how I could EVER have approved of a band who flaut the "virtues" of a gurlie who "leaves the pie, but always, always, eats her greens"? JAKE SHILLINGFORD with your STUPID CURL, I denounce you! Anyway, back we are in September '96, with a STUNNING selection of also-rans at the bottom of the selection (Bawl, anyone? Ruth?), ON AND ON by the Longpigs, and of course the obligatory Cranberries track. Don your Addidas trackie tops/Man City footie shirts and VOTE!

Soooo hard to choose between two of my favourite records of the 90s... Rocket From The Crypt versus Sleeper. Goddammit... even that Longpigs track would probably have been my favourite on most of the other Shine compilations, and that's not even in the top 2 here.
