Moi. Glad you like it. :) That song has a great energy to it, and I am getting quite good at singing along to it despite not speaking a word of French.

Added a track from Mono, because I am finally going to see them live. <3<3<3<3<3
The only thing better would be Godspeed You! Black Emperor live, which is a bit hard to accomplish.

I have the feeling I should hate it but I really don't. :p

Well the picture is awful, the name is questionable and it starts of lame... and then it turns into gold pure gold.

I like to build on the themes other posters start. Like adding the MIA and Akala tracks after "Inglan is a bitch" and I just added 2 vampire songs after "Bela Lugosi's Dead". :devil:

I was shocked to realise Bela Lugosi's Dead is 30 yrs old, it's about 25 yrs since I first heard it and have loved it ever since. (9 mins was always a touch to long though :p)

Well, I can see that people have been been turning from the vampire theme to even creepier stuff. "The Boiler", by Specials & Rhoda? ...wow... that is the most unsettling and depressing song I've heard since... well, possibly ever. Fuck me, I think I'm gonna have to listen to The Antlers sing about abortion for a while just to cheer myself up after that one. Fuck. :(
Also, the next track, "Ring the Bells", is completely unavailable in Finland. :erg:

Yup, those last three were me.
My sister used to play the Rhoda Dakar with the Bauhaus (which was also mine) all the time and it just came back the other day.
Not something you want to hear too often but worth a listen.
Can't you get any James at all?
So far the only thing on the list we don't get is the Donkeyboy "Ambition", well, we get a "tribute" version I didn't bother putting on.
Don't know if Subjeff gets it on premium.

Yeah, it's sorta like a Lars von Trier movie. Very powerful and moving but not really something your want to go back and revisit.
And we do get 4 James albums over here, assuming that it is the same James, that is. Spotify has a tendency for lumping together different bands/artists with the same name. Justice for instance comes in no less than 4 different flavours: the French dudes, a rapper called Just Ice, a pop princess with a hard-to-understand accent and a Belgian hardcore band. Anyway, James albums we get: Strip Mine, Wah Wah, Millionaries, Pleased to meet you.
edit: Switched out Donkeyboy for fellow Scandiavian pop-rockers The Ark.
