Number20 is Tarmac by Hazeldine. Some superb lyrics in this song!
Sorry L, when listening all the words just flow by. Now you expect us to have heard them? (AND remember them?)
Just teasing folks! I was just aware the lost had sunk down the blogpost list...
No pressure; as I said originally even I wouldn't get quite a few of these... though YEAH to Chrissie for commenting for the first time to get Tarmac!
Half Day Closing?
This makes my head hurt. :)
Number 10 is Codex by Pere Ubu.
"I think about you all the time".
That's either romantic, or very creepy. I think it's romantically creepy.
Well done Baby Washington!
And well done Neil - you got around to it!
No 14 is that Flying Burritto Brothers song (I think Dylan wrote it?) "Do Right Woman"
The chorus is....
"If you want a do right, all night woman, then you need to be a do right all night man...."
I think a motown artist covered it as well, but I can't think who.
Cigar?
Paulie... erm, gosh, well it could be but it ain't!
Sorry!
13 is Crush in the Ghetto by Jolie Holland. Congratulations on your good taste.
Commiserations, though, on your bad taste, in thinking that any other songs are worthy to be mentioned in the same post as Jolie's.
21 is "Brassneck" by the superb, still fantastic Wedding Present.
Cool blog, by the way.

Dammit! After 2 days I get the Portishead one to discover I've been pipped!
