Sleeeeep - and music?

[byslantedlight]

My eyes are soooo melted, and my peripheral vision has the range of a computer screen... eeeh, but I'm looking forward to these two weeks being over... next Sunday night! Well, sometime after next Sunday night...

In the meantime, I'm trying to keep awake by listening to music on We7 (though I hate headphones too!) while I work my way through the immense dull braindeadedness of my day job. But I actually haven't been listening to music for ages, so...

Does anyone have any recs for anything good? I know you don't know what I like (bit of an indie girl in general, but I like a thousand different things too... *g*) but I thought maybe I'd make a list (yeay lists!) and listen and see what it's like and see if I could find some new stuff... So I'm not even going to say what I've liked to start with... *g* So - help? What do you like? What's your favourite? What's the album everyone should hear once?

Also, I'm currently listening to Reverend and the Makers (very good and boppy), but they totally remind me of someone and I can't think who... is it just the Stone Roses/Madchester in general, or...?

Also, also - which Manchester band covered Sunshine Superman?, cos I really like that too, and I keep losing it! I keep thinking the Happy Mondays, but it wasn't... I don't think it was... but who was it?! - Got it! It's not a cover at all, it's Donovan and it was the Happy Mondays!

Also also also - yeay, still writing in Pros in between brain-deaded jobs! *g*

ETA - yeay, a rec!

1. Camera Obscura - My Maudlin Career - rather like this!
