Smiths/Morrissey only?

I'm particularly partial to "No One Can Hold a Candle to You" lately.

 

[RichardofEngland]

You must have some Hold Steady on.
Killer Parties, Citrus or First Night - any Hold Steady will do really

gonne sequence it as well - no Mozz and Smiths though this is the other music thread - gonna try for stuff released in the past few years as well - but may throw in some old favorites - and it probably isn't as rocking as you'd like but hope it helps....

Lily Allen - LDN
Arcade Fire - Keep the Car Running
Tegan and Sara - The Con (the song)
Bloc Party - Banquet
Feist - 1, 2, 3, 4

I normally put on a bit of Linkin Park for scream along cheesy rock(Faint is a favourite) (but then, my friends are weird)

Thanks for the help, nearly done now! Think I'll pass on the Linkin Park tho Hatfull (maybe a few years ago though!)

Hm, how about British Sea Power and/or The Coral

Straight Down the Line from BSP's new EP is fantastic.
