Bizarrely I was still listening to Capital FM a lot and wondering why they were playing Fastlove instead of Elastica. Then I found Xfm hurrah for young indieKat!

> Cj Bolland - Sugar Is Sweeter

This is still an amazing song.

It has "Sneak's Kicker Mix". Doesn't sound quite as good.

Poor Suede's triumphant return to glory seems lost in all that.

Actually, what's really surprising is the lack of both Wannabe and Firestarter in the Jop poll.
