Forever Lost
By The Magic Numbers
This could also be a post about songs with killer choruses... This one is not quite as killer as the following ones, but it's still got an awesome hook that totally hit me out of the blue. That alone was enough to make me choose it for this week.
The Magic Numbers themselves are a English band that had mild success a couple of years ago but have kind of dropped off the radar a little unfortunately. Unfortunately, they are most known for walking off of 'Top of the Pops' after the host made a comment about their weight :S.
Beat Of Your Drum
By 78 Saab
78 Saab are an Australian band that have been around for ages but still haven't received the kind of recognition they deserve.... If they were a little more prolific in releasing albums I'd consider these guys heading to You Am I levels of unfair obscurity.
This song is off the 2004 album Crossed Lines (which is an excellent album all up) and features an unbelievable build up and catchy chorus.
There She Goes, My Beautiful World
By Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds
Nick Cave doesn't get anywhere near enough credit. I mean really... What has John Farnham done lately? What has he done to secure his position as Australia's most know male singer?
Not that I think Nick Cave would like that.. I definitely can't see him doing 'For the last time' style tours. Or performing in Jesus Christ Superstar. Maybe it's like Nick Cave is the Anti John Farnham? Maybe they are two opposite sides of the same coin? Maybe... just maybe, they are twins separated at birth... and Nick Cave is like the evil twin.
Also he dated PJ Harvey. Good on him.
