THE NEW VINYL VILLAIN 
No Longer Young Enough – The Just Joans. A song that shoots straight into my all-time favourites as does much of Who’s Smiling Now
Fake Fur – Urusei Yatsura. If I haven’t heard Siamese at an indie disco. I’m not at an ‘indie’ disco.
Since Yesterday – Strawberry Switchblade. A true pop classic. Nothing alternative at all about the song. It’s just pure pop and all the better for it.
Down The Dip – Aztec Camera. I adore this song. There was an incredible amount of hype about Mr Frame at the time and this song, amongst many others, holds up to any claim of hype.
