"Discography: The Complete Singles Collection is the first greatest hits album by English synth-pop duo Pet Shop Boys, released on 4 November 1991 by Parlophone."

Neil Young - tell me why live at massey hall, 1971

"Live at Massey Hall 1971 is a live album by Canadian-American musician Neil Young. Released in 2007, the album features a solo acoustic performance by Young at Massey Hall in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, on 19 January 1971 during his Journey Through the Past Solo Tour. It is the second release in Young's Archives Performance Series."

Saint Etienne - swedish radio theme, 2022

"A collection of hot dishes and cold cuts from late period Saint Etienne. Some were one-off projects, others are gems that were ruthlessly tossed aside from reasons no one can quite remember. And so, for your enjoyment, we have the theme from a scandalous show called Luuk & Lokko (Swedish Radio Theme)"

Nada Surf - popular, 1996

"Popular" is the debut single by American alternative rock band Nada Surf, released in May 1996 from their debut album High/Low, released the following month. Each verse in "Popular" presents, in spoken-word format, sarcastic advice to teenagers taken from the book Penny's Guide to Teen-Age Charm and Popularity by American actress Gloria Winters."

Pet Shop Boys - integral, 2006

"The single criticises the Identity Cards Act 2006. A statement from the band cited the issue as the reason that Neil Tennant ceased his well-publicized support of Tony Blair's Labour party. Some wording, such as 'sterile, immaculate', is drawn from Yevgeny Zamyatin's dystopian novel We, although Tennant hadn't read it when he wrote the lyrics. In the book, the inhabitants of the future One State try to build The Integral, a glass spaceship, in order to solve the cosmic equation and resolve all the problems in their One State."

Saturday Looks Good To Me - if you ask, 2004

"With its reverbed guitars and stop/start pacing, Keep Walking reminds me of the better songs off the most recent album by Atlanta's The White Lights. This similarity is brought home on one of the later tracks called If You Ask. With an organ, a vibraphone and some dominant drumming, that song has that haunted prom feel that characterizes the work of so many Atlanta-based bands. However, to the credit of Saturday Looks Good to Me, unlike other bands, they manage to make each song different enough that I'm not left thinking that everything sounds the same."

Coldplay - hymn for the weekend, 2016

"The song was debuted on Annie Mac's BBC radio show on 30 November 2015. According to Berryman, lead singer Chris Martin originally wanted the song to be a party song with the lyrics "drinks on me, drinks on me", but his bandmates didn't think that would go well with their fans."

Ride - cali, 2017

"My favourite song is Cali. I love the optimistic, summer like feel of the track, with the little guitar flourishes and loose beat. There is also an insanely wonderful bit towards the end where there is a double tap on the snare that leads into the joyous second half of the song, where the band let rip and fly, playing with the melody of the song and taking it to new levels."

The Go-Betweens - draining the pool for you, 1984

"The album was named after an annual fair in Spring Hill, Queensland, suburb of Brisbane Grammar School, Robert Forster's high school. Some of the band had also lived there in the early eighties. Grant McLennan said of the title, "It was generally not that we were home sick, I think we just wanted to have, after Before Hollywood, which was so obviously an American kind of thing, a regional home-town thing." In another interview McLennan stated "we all lived there and the main reason was that in September, October of every year in Brisbane, there is, in Spring Hill, a fair, and as the album came out around then we thought it would be nice to have a parochial mention in a title because we hadn't done that for a long time."

The Cure - lovesong live, 1993

"for die-hard Cure fans it's a gorgeous treat and for other acolytes of the lukewarm or lapsed variety it might well re-recruit them back into Bob Smith's sometimes wacky, ofttimes gloomy and always idiosyncratic world."

Fleet Foxes - kept woman, 2017

"Crack-Up is enveloping enough to get lost in, and it doesn't always offer easy entry points. For every contained and elegantly pretty ballad like "Kept Woman," there's a byzantine engine of ambition like the title track, which closes Crack-Up with a burst of energy worthy of its title. But the point never gets lost that these songs chronicle the pursuit of contentment, however frustrated — and take great care to linger in the beauty that crops up along the way."

James - walk like you, 2014

"The tracks on La Petite Mort were influenced by the deaths of frontman Tim Booth's mother and his best friend Gabrielle Roth. It included more pianos and keyboards, drawing comparison to Elbow and Coldplay, with some of the guitar parts were compared to Muse."

Car Seat Headrest - joe gets kicked out of school for using drugs with friends but says this isn't a problem, 2016

"This whole record is one that I associate very heavily with a specific time and place. It was the only CD I played in my car for virtually that entire summer. Was living by myself for the first time, partying more than I should have been..."

Neil Young - a man needs a maid, 1972

"Bob Dylan had told him he liked the arrangement."

Sarah Cracknell - taxi, 1997

"For a decade, U.K.’s Saint Etienne have been keeping the ’60s pop flame lit; here, sublime vocalist Sarah Cracknell picks up the torch. Like her band’s efforts, her previous solo CD and countless contemporaries — notably Stereolab — Lipslide injects the sunny melodies of the ’60s into the dreamy, hypnotizing netherworld of ’90s trip-hop to create soothing, post-modern disco lullabys."

Devine And Statton - in the rain, 1989

"The second and last Devine & Statton album was even more concerned with the Welsh backgrounds of its two members, specifically the city the two called home. Aiming at what Ian Devine later called creating "a paean to Cardiff," the two, again supported with several side performers -- notably including New Order's Peter Hook on bass and regular Tom Waits collaborator Marc Ribot on guitar -- created another excellent effort showcasing (mostly) acoustic guitar/vocal-led numbers that carried both precision and sharp lyrical heft."

Car Seat Headrest - overexposed enjoy, 2012

"Car Seat Headrest frontman Will Toledo was offended when a friend pointed out the weak chorus in an early version of “Overexposed.” He had kind of asked for it, though; back in CSH’s fledgling days, Toledo would often post songs online as soon as they were done, asking for feedback — back then, he was testing out tracks for what would become 2013’s Monomania."

Echo And The Bunnymen - bring on the dancing horses extended mix, 1987

"Bring On the Dancing Horses" is a single by the English rock band Echo & the Bunnymen, released on 7 October 1985. It was the only single from their compilation album Songs to Learn & Sing (1985) and was recorded for the John Hughes teen romantic comedy-drama film Pretty in Pink (1986). The song reached number 21 on the UK singles chart and number 15 on the Irish Singles Chart."

Bright Eyes And Neva Dinova - get back, 2004

"in 2004, Bright Eyes mastermind Conor Oberst and Neva frontman Jake Bellows decided to take their friendship to the next level, lock themselves in a basement, and crank out some tunes."

Moby - the ceremony of innocence, 2018

"despite its relentlessly downbeat content, Moby's music is just too satisfying to be depressing."
