Ooh, it's hot, innit?

At the request of [info]tekno_alice
List 5 songs that you are currently digging. It doesn't matter what genre they are from, whether they have words or even if they're any good, but they must be songs you're really enjoying right now. Post these instructions, along with your 5 songs.
I've done six (sorry) but i've also uploaded MP3s for y'all to listen to. I'll take 'em down after a week, or sooner if anyone has any problems with them being here.

The La's: Feelin' (Mike Hedges recording) From the great unreleased La's LP. This version uses Coral Sitars instead of yr standard six-string. The moment when the solo starts (on yet another sitar) is the most explosive moment in pop ever.

The Pipettes:ABC Brand new 45 from top Brighton Girl Group. Er...total pop. "He's the kind of guy who...OH-OH! AH WO-OH-OH-OH!!!"

Go-Kart Mozart: On A Building Site Lawrence's new record. One for the kids.

American Spring: Shying Away Finally made a CDr of all the Spring recordings for Tim Hopkins over the weekend. Could not prise this one off the record player no matter how I tried. "I know what I want, and I really don't want to. But I have to. So I'm shyin' away." Yep, genius.

The Gosdin Brothers: Try & Catch The Wind The sound of the sun streaming through the leaves in the park yesterday.

The Magic Numbers: Don't Give Up The Fight

* The La's: You get the feelin' I'm gonna love this one, don't you? And how!!
* The Pipettes: This bothers me because I feel it should be double-P. Unless it's Pipe-ettes!? (Apropos of nothing: My highschool nickname was Pip, and I loathed it.) Great song, though. :)
* Go-Kart Mozart: Jilted John X Bob the Builder. :P
* American Spring: Growing on me, but it's taken two listens! A million influences I can't untangle, so I'll just say, Pretty good!
* The Gosdin Bros: Harry Nilsson X Glen Campbell. d:
* The Magic Numbers: Not taken with this one really. Reminds me of why I don't like The Flaming Lips' hit either ("You're Beautiful" was it?). Can't articulate my feelings. I'll give it a few more goes though.

I downloaded them all. Thanks. :D

Fair enough. 'Pippettes' looks even wronger. I still want an LJ mate of mine to stop calling me 'Pipa' though. :P
