March 13, 200817 yr Author special mention has to go to your fantastic album chart - great to see Nick Drake in there - as well as brilliant albums by Bat For Lashes, Alison Moyet, Bowie, Roxy Music, Duran Duran and, of course Kate Bush - as well as the 2 best Goldfrapp albums. Singles wise - I love the new entries from Moby - his finest single in years - and the Siouxsie single which is possibly the best release from Mantaray, I think. Great to see Sam Sparro and Neon Neon rising - thanks to you, they're both in my own personal chart this week - same with Late Of The Pier. Great chart, as always - varied, interesting and intelligent choices :) Thanks for all your comments especially Russt's. I think it is very safe to say this incredible track, will be a very high new entry (in stark contrast to Madonna's desperately poor new single) in next week's chart: XPmXjtcErK8 Portishead - Machine Gun
March 13, 200817 yr It's a great single, I think - and likewise, it'll be in with a bullet in my top 20 next week. Having heard the whole of the Portishead album, this was the one track I really didn't think they'd release - but power to them. It's a brave choice. A class single by a class act - but, of course, Joe Public won't 'get' this single at all - or the album, I don't think. There's a track on there called 'We Carry On' and it's positively techno - very strange (but wonderful), but likely to alienate the lounge-fans Portishead seem to attract. I can't wait for the live dates - Portishead are awesome live - one of the best gigs I've ever seen was them headlining the Sunday night at Bristol's Ashton Court open-air festival many moons ago - the sun setting on a balmy day... and Portishead playing as it got dark to a huge home crowd. :wub:
