Pop Club - over the moon, 2026

"It's an upbeat, introspective indie/pop-rock track with themes of feeling out of place yet euphoric ("over the moon") in a relationship or moment."

Michael Rother - südseewellen, 1987

"Traumreisen is the third studio album which Rother recorded without any assistance. The entirety of the album was written and performed by Rother utilising guitar and electronic instrumentation."

Acid House Kings - first time, 1997

"First Time" is a song by the Swedish indie pop band Acid House Kings from their 1997 album of the same name. It features the band's characteristic twee/80s-influenced sound: jangly guitars, bright synths, and simple, catchy melodies."

The Lightning Seeds - three lions live, 1998

"So successful was the original ‘Three Lions’, buoyed by England’s near miss at the 1996 European Championships, that the only logical thing for David Baddiel, Frank Skinner and Ian Brodie to do was re-record it for the next big international tournament: the 1998 World Cup."

Belle And Sebastian - it only takes one lion, 2026

"The lyrics came to Stuart Murdoch in the hazy aftermath of Scotland’s dramatic qualification for the World Cup. The Belle and Sebastian frontman had watched his side’s playoff victory over Denmark through his fingers before deciding to write his own anthem to a team he has followed for more than 50 years. “Most people recognised instantly the next day that they’d witnessed the most important Scottish game ever,” says Murdoch. “That was our magic moment.”

Pink Floyd - goodbye cruel world, 1979

"With his final “goodbye,” Pink places his last brick, abruptly cutting off the music and his farewell, as if we’re stationed on the outside of his wall along with the rest of the “cruel world.” On an album where nearly every song segues into the next via an instrumental or sound effects interlude, the silence that cuts into the end of the album’s first half is instantly jarring, the immensity of Pink’s wall felt in the void where only seconds before a musical life existed. Figuratively speaking, the wall silences all."

The Innocence Mission - this boat, 2020

“This Boat” is lovely as ever, with limpid guitar, luminous piano and strings enveloping Karen Peris’ earnest, trembling vocals. The song seems to explore the strangeness of how time unfolds, historically and personally: Boats giving way to planes; the sunrise that begins each day. “Things that we started out here to say / went down the street and turned into a day,” Peris sings, musing on time’s constant forward motion, and its debt to what came before."

Ingraban - the one i love rem cover, 2026

"A long time ago, I played in a band covering this song (and many others). Of course, at some point I wanted to do my own cover version. In case, one of the old band members checks in here: "Hello!"

Saint Etienne - nothing can stop us instrumental, 1991

"The first song me and Pete ever wrote. Beginners luck."

Acid House Kings - heaven's just a kiss away, 1997

"The Creation Records boss Alan McGee had a band called Biff Bang Pow! released an album called The Acid House Album. We thought that was funny, so we decided to call ourselves Acid House Kings. In retrospect, maybe not a brilliant choice. Or maybe it was?"
