I used to go down there for Kebabs on a Fri Lunchtime for the office (we took it in turns, I wasn't the general dogsbod) so we'd eat in the office and then spend most of the afternoon in't pub. City job.

As I post each song, snippets get stuck in my head and the operatic chorus of Blue Girls is so lovely.. will have to put the proper song on.
in case there is any confusion, still looking for #35:
― she started dancing to that (Finefinemusic), Monday, 31 October 2011 16:29 (twelve years ago) link
I love these picture clues. I feel like I'm exercising my brain. Disney Time for #35? (A very Halloween-appropriate picture.)

Minnie Timperley.

Underrated song imo. Well, I guess any good song on We Love Life feels underrated to me.

As I say, I thought the whole of "We love life" is 1) Underrated 2) possibly the one album I played the most.

COUNTDOWN!
Oh, I completely forgot about Minnie Timperley! I can't remember if I voted for it, but I'm glad it made it. One of my favorite tracks from that album.

Everyone YouTube that whilst I get some lunch. You need to hear it!!

The weak links are "TV Movie" (although it works well as a sort-of intermission to the album), "Party Hard", and "Seductive Barry" (Pulp could never do epics and should have never recorded a song longer than seven minutes).
i disagree with this so much! "Seductive Barry" and "You're In My Eyes (Discosong)" off the last Jarvis solo album were both on my ballot because i think he's GREAT at the 8-minute slow burn (and i probably wouldn't mind if the 6-minute slow burns like "F.E.E.L.I.N.G." and "This Is Hardcore" were a bit longer). those songs are really just masterful achievements in pacing and mood.

PULP, PLUP, BLUR... hey it is almost an anagram if you add a few pen strokes....

To be fair, he knows I am (was) a massive Blur fan too.. so I guess he blanked a bit, since he doesn't post to ILX or anything. He gets partial points. :)
Has anyone ever noticed that Pulp always uses "Yeah, yeah, yeah!" as filler but Blur's always on the "La la la"? Not 100% of the time but I once told him that's an easy way to guess if I'm playing a Pulp or a Blur song, heh. And Song 2 does end with "Awwwww... yeah."

Just throwing this out there, but I'd be totally down with taking part in an ILM This is Hardcore tribute album, where we recast the songs into different genres (e.g. "The Fear" as a dance track, "Party Hard" as a country song, "This is Hardcore" as industrial, etc. etc.)
― epistantophus, Saturday, 5 November 2011 00:09 (twelve years ago) link
Aww, yeah you guys should do it. I've no musical ability whatsoever however.
― she started dancing to that (Finefinemusic), Saturday, 5 November 2011 02:40 (twelve years ago) link
That could be an asset, not a liability! You could do an a capella track, or a kazoo track, or a minimalist lo-fi casio track!
― epistantophus, Saturday, 5 November 2011 21:17 (twelve years ago) link
Listening to Pulp to prepare for the show, I've come across a few songs that should have ranked higher or at all:
Separations - I forgot about the actual song! "Let's Do It.."the Mark of the Devil
