Singles of the Decade ii

More choice choices from the decade almost past!

The Innocence Mission - One For Sorrow, Two For Joy mp3

Absolutely beautiful, and originally posted here in 2007 by Spike as part of this post.



Hello Saferide - I Was Definitely Made For These Times mp3

Released as a single in the UK in 2007, and arguably one of Annika Norlin's greatest compositions, this song has, bizarrely, failed to appear on any Hello Saferide album to date. Quite simply, it is three minutes and eight seconds of pure, unbridled pop genius!



Harmonica - Rocking Girl mp3

Not a lot of people know this track. But they should as, like the Hello Saferide song, it's joyous, life-affirming stuff. Rocking Girl originally appeared here as part of this Three of a Kind post on Norwegian pop.

Right, that'll do for today I think. More of the same at some point in the not-too-distant future I shouldn't wonder.

Singles of the Decade

According to moi, and in no particular order. This is basically just an excuse for me to dig out some of my favourite songs from the past ten years and inflict them on you in something of a haphazard fashion. So haphazard in fact that the first one was actually recorded in late 1999, which wasn't in this decade at all. (It wasn't released until February 2000, though, so it's in.)

Anyway, the single in question is by Brighton combo Clearlake and it contains not one but two absolutely fantastic songs. And oh look, here they are now.

Clearlake - Winterlight mp3

Clearlake - Jumble Sailing mp3
