""What would you think if I sang out of tune, Would you stand up and walk out on me. Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song, And I'll try not to sing out of key.""
Live Forever
1 recommendation
"A fascinating documentary about the rise and fall of the Brit Pop music moment of the 90s. It may have barely made a blip in North America (I still cannot believe that Oasis is only known as "That Wonderwall band", but the genre made a lasting impact in the UK with much of the modern music being made there owes a huge debt to the bands of BritPop. Live Forever takes it's name from the Oasis so..."
Shotter's Nation: Babyshambles
3 recommendations
"Musically and lyrically much stronger than the debut and follow-up EP, Shotter's Nation sees Pete Doherty really returning to the level of music-writing that he was known for in the Libertines. I still don't think either party will be quite complete without the other, but it's going to be tough for Carl Barat's band, Dirty Pretty Things, to match this sophomore release."
Your Woman Pt.1: Tyler James
1 recommendation
"Okay so I'm a total nerd, but I LOVE this reincarnation of the 90s one-hit wonder, "Your Woman." Remember? "Well I guess what they say is true, I could never be the right kind of girl for you, I could never be your woman" Anyway this song is very poppy but fun. Apparently this Tyler James once dated Amy Winehouse and was touted as the "next Justin Timberlake" but it all fell through. At leas..."

"I loooved Wonderwall when I was in high school. Here's a juicy tip if you love Wonderwall - look for Cat Power's cover of the song on itunes!"
Robbie Williams - Greatest Hits
1 recommendation
"Robbie Williams is probably the most prolific British artist of the past decade. Starting with the boyband Take That is the early 90s, he grew into his own in the mid 90s. Not only he is a great singer and songwriter, he's the coolest dude around. If you've never heard of him before, pick up this Greatest Hits album - it doesn't have a single bad song. Great melodies and cool lyrics all around...."
Lord Don't Slow Me Down - Oasis
1 recommendation
"It seems people either love or hate the Gallagher brothers! Count me in the love faction! Sure they fight (what siblings don't?) and sure they "borrow from the Beatles" (why not "borrow" from one of the best I say, others who are more popular have done a lot worse). However, what the haters loose site of is that Oasis is one of the best if not the best Britpop band to come along in the past 20 yea..."
The 1990s - Cookies
1 recommendation
"I predict these guys will be huge. The singer's voice sounds to me a lot like Pete Shelley (singer from the Buzzcocks). This is great fun sing along music. This is another one of those bands who you can tell are from the UK (they hail from Glasgow)."
Final Straw by Snow Patrol
4 recommendations
"I'm not usually super into this Brit-poppy, indie-rocky kind of mish-mash, but Snow Patrol are so damn catchy, I can't not fall for them. Favorite track: "Spitting Games," which is so nostalgia-inducing in the best way."
Eyes Open : Snow Patrol
4 recommendations
"I'm not claiming best album of the year. I'm not even claiming top ten. That aside, there are some really, really great songs on here."
A Guide to Love, Loss & Desperation: The Wombats
1 recommendation
"If you think that all indie pop is more tegan and sara than the kooks, you haven't heard the wombats. Their blend of poppy catchy lyrics and splashes of art rock make them a band worth listening to! And if you're one of those mainstream-ers who won't touch an indie music album if the cover was made of chocolate, this could totally change your opinion that all indie music is a bunch of drug addicts..."
Young & Armed: Sugarplum Fairy
1 recommendation
"What can you expect from the Swedish pop-rock band Sugarplum Fairy? Catchy pop-rock songs with an boy-bandish feel but lyrics and domain that stretch far beyond what's typical for this genre. For variety's sake, listen to 'Stay Young', 'Sail Beyond Doubt', and 'Sweet Jackie'. If you like Sugarplum Fairy, definitely listen to 'Marigold', 'She' and 'Last Chance' off of their other albums."
Parachutes

"The best of Coldplay's albums. Sporting the popular Clocks and Yellow all the way down to the less well known (but still great) Everythings Not Lost."
Keane - Perfect symmetry
1 recommendation
"I am in love. Yes you heard me, I am totally in love with Keanes new album. I cant stop listening to it and this is coming from me, the former anti-keane girl. This isnt the typical Keane album with leadsinger Tom Chaplins beautifully soft voice, this is feelings mixed with raw sound that takes the mind to the 80s. Songs like "Spiralling" and "Again & again" makes every fiber in my body ri..."
