My Life Story's Jake Shillingford is interviewed on teletext today talking about his act, which seem to be one of the great lost acts of the late 1990s. Teletext also gave the band 10/10 for their recent live performance, which i dont think i've never seen before!!! they must have been a frickin great band!!!

 

the interview says that the kaiser chiefs are very big fans, and so probably they are like them but with a ruddy big orchestra. maybe if like ZTT's trevor horn were to produce them?

 

anyway Sex & Violins: The Best Of My Life Story is due to be released very soon and has these tracks.

 

1. Girl A Girl B Boy C

2. Funny Ha Ha

3. Motorcade

4. The Penthouse In The Basement

5. Angel

6. The Dice Man

7. Sparkle

8. 12 Reasons Why I Love Her

9. Strumpet

10. The King Of Kissingdom

11. You Can’t Uneat The Apple

12. It's A Girl Thing

13. If You Can't Live Without Me Then Why Aren't You Dead Yet?

14. Empire Line

15. Walk / Don't Walk

16. Neverland

17. Here Comes The Big Weekend

 

so has anyone got any videos for these tunes?

Well, My Life Story would fit in ok these days I suppose. I think the Kaiser Chiefs probably toured with them back in their britpop days when they were called whatever they were called before Kaiser Chiefs...and that might explain why they like them, cos MLS were really, really average back in the day.

 

The reviewer's probably an old fan blinded by nostalgia.

Oh, and both Sparks and Rednex got to that oh so funny "Sex and violins" pun first...

1. the missing link between abc, marc almond, dexys and the kaiser chiefs/franz

 

2. britpop band

 

3. no orchestra

Gratuitous Sax and Senseless Violins :lol: :lol:

I might get that.

I'd rather get their album 'Golden Mile' but it was deleted years ago and is almost impossible to get on eBay or Amazon marketplace.

I got a very battered copy of 'Morning Glory' this week from eBay. It does not have the hit (well, hit by My Life Story standards) 'Duchess' which is very annoying.

 

I might still get the GH for the best of the other albums.
