Elvis Costello: Men Called Uncle
Neko Case: Bowling Green
Lill Lindfors: Ingen kom
Serge Gainsbourg: New York USA
Last Shadow Puppets: Standing Next to Me
Madness: One Step Beyond
Matthew Sweet: Life Without You
– hov, så måtte Altered Beast lige graves frem. Den er et rent mesterværk.
10 fra en virkelig godt blandet landhandel i kronologisk rækkefølge:
Serge Gainsbourg/Jane Birkin: L’anamour (Birkin/Gainsbourg, 1969)
Bent Jacobsen: Engangsknald (Bøsse, 1975)

Jeg har da en top 3 🙂
1. Blondie – Denis
2. Kraftwerk – Abzug
3. The Beatles – Blackbird
@ Tommy: Min ‘New Years Eve’ varer altså 2:21.
Ja, 2:18 er en dejlig længde. Ikke så meget pis med de ti herunder – inklusiv et The Walkmen-nummer, du ikke havde med, Jens (!)
Stop Breakin’ Down Blues / Robert Johnson
Been Smoking Too Long / Nick Drake
Burned – Buffalo Springfield
Blackbird / The Beatles
My Eyes Won’t Shut / Port O’ Brien
Glass Onion / The Beatles
Nothing To One / Leonard Cohen
Get Up Jake / The Band
Hazy Shade Of Winter / Simon And Garfunkel
New Years Eve / The Walkmen
På trods af nyindkøbt computer og deraf følgende stor udvidelse af biblioteket er en top 10 på 2:18 simpelthen ikke mulig for mig. Det må blive en top 5.
Frank Black: (I Want To Live On An) Abstract Plain
Psyched Up Janis: Tanked And Gone
Pizzicato Five: Love´s Prelude
Pet Shop Boys: Your Funny Uncle
The Kills: U.R.A Fever
Pastor, originalen er heller ikke med Bobby Fuller Four, men med The Crickets efter Buddy Holly.

Og skæbnen vil, at alle forbinder denne sang med The Clash. Jeg kunne ikke engang huske Bobby Fuller selv.
