Guilty Pleasure

This cover version should really annoy me, but somehow.... doesn't!

It reminds me of that Sebastien Teiller Eurovision song!

That really grew on me! I dl'ed his album yesterday in fact and listened to the first track but it was a bit boring.

I seem to be in a mood for morose Euro balearic nindie this summer.

I've been listening to punishing filter house all morning! Annoyingly the OCC website hasn't updated the top 100 singles yet even though it says it has, so no chartpoll yet :(

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Yahoo! UK charts is the fastest and most accurate I think.

I actually caught up on the charts at the weekend via a great big torrent so I am in a pro-pop mood once again.

Aha! Good stuff there. Tho OCC are usually fine (and give you the full top 100), I guess their update-o-dude is off sick today.

It's updated now! Not that there's anything particularly interesting in the 75-100, bar an inexplicable Ashlee mini-rebound.

Music is OK (synthy strings esp.), vocals iffy tho

Is it a sign of premature something or another that I rly, rly liked that? *goes directly to BitTorrent*

It's the nindiepop hammong organ-y thing that does it I think.

You can d/l it direct from the Pinglewood link, about halfway down the page maybe?

Ah, awesome -I shall annoy my mum by putting it on the CD I'm about to burn for her.

I sometimes seriously question whether the amount of nindiepop I have on my computer disqualifies me from ever being allowed to make value judgements about music ever again.

i really like this. although i like the original more - it's a really good song (at least if you're into euro-tecno-trash, but anyway it's a great song as the cover proves).

also, check out this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFIqv3GFIzk

The key is to keep the original tempo, I think. If this had been a maudlin acoustic strum-fest, it would have failed.
