“Wish You Were Here” – Songs Ranked

I always have a tough time deciding what my second favourite Pink Floyd album is (after “Dark Side of the Moon”, of course) – on the one hand “The Wall” is quite sensational with its grand length and concept, yet “Wish You Were Here” has always stood out to me as a flawless album. EveryContinue reading ““Wish You Were Here” – Songs Ranked”

David Bowie – Opening Tracks Ranked

A long time ago I ranked all of The Beatles’s opening songs, mainly just as a fun way of showing how the first song on the album is one of the most important and usually one of the strongest of the record. I wasn’t really planning on giving any other artist the same treatment, butContinue reading “David Bowie – Opening Tracks Ranked”

50 Underrated David Bowie Songs

I thought I’d just have a bit of fun with this one – I’ve made far too many lists about David Bowie, and I promise I’ll run out soon! In my various lists I’ve mentioned a few songs that I thought were underrated, so my original plan was to pick out 10 or 20 tracksContinue reading “50 Underrated David Bowie Songs”

Beatles “Love” – Songs Ranked

“Love” is a bit of an oddity within the Beatles’ catalogue, as they didn’t really have anything to do with it. The album came around after the Cirque Du Soliel show of the same name needed a soundtrack, so Giles Martin (son of George Martin) came in to remix some of the band’s most recognisableContinue reading “Beatles “Love” – Songs Ranked”

Every Beatles Number 1 – Ranked

The Beatles are quite comfortably the greatest band of all time, blending both commercial pop and experimental rock in ways that had never been seen before and will never be seen again. I was actually very surprised to learn that they had a huge number of singles reach number 1 in the chart; I knewContinue reading “Every Beatles Number 1 – Ranked”

“Kid A” – Songs Ranked

Whilst “Kid A” has never been my favourite Radiohead album, it quite comfortably ranks in third. This may sound insulting, but when you realise the sheer awesomeness of Radiohead’s discography then you realise that third ain’t so bad. This is easily one of the best albums I’ve had the pleasure of listening to, and ifContinue reading ““Kid A” – Songs Ranked”

“Speaking in Tongues” Songs Ranked

I went through a bit of a “Spring Cleaning” phase recently (I know it’s Winter, don’t judge me!) where I browsed my various catalogues of favourite albums to see if I’d missed any glaring ones on my blog – and I have! “Speaking in Tongues” is in my top 3 favourite Talking Heads albums, andContinue reading ““Speaking in Tongues” Songs Ranked”

Every James Bond Theme Song Ranked

There’s always a lot of buzz whenever a new James Bond film comes out – “Will there be a new Bond? Is the villain any good? Where’s the trailer, I want to see Bond kick some ass!” I think, above all else, the Bond theme is what gets the most attention in the months beforeContinue reading “Every James Bond Theme Song Ranked”

“american dream” (LCD Soundsystem) – Songs Ranked

I get the impression that a few people were underwhelmed by this album, and how LCD Soundsystem dragged themselves out of retirement for it. To that I say – what the hell?!? This album’s fire! The awesome dance beats, a whole range of diverse tracks … why were people so underwhelmed?!? Maaaaaybe it doesn’t quiteContinue reading ““american dream” (LCD Soundsystem) – Songs Ranked”

What I learned from re-listening to David Bowie’s entire discography

I’ve done a more than a few Bowie lists on by blog, so it’s no surprise that I absolutely bloody love the man. He was a beautiful soul, with creativity and flair oozing out of every artistic endeavour, and hardly a day goes by where I feel saddened by his tragic passing a few yearsContinue reading “What I learned from re-listening to David Bowie’s entire discography”
