# SEDAN FUCK

# I want someone to get the music video it's from
But it's a bit obscure...
(clue: it reached number 65 in 1998. No, I know that's not much of a clue.)

# Is it...
Tooty and the Suits with "Rock My Palanquin"?
(I helped save b3ta! Photoshop Bitch 2014 edition, Sat 21 Jul 2012, 18:02, archived)
# Very close... (and, personally, I think Tooty made a mistake going solo)
It's the wonderful Helen Love :)

# Whoa, spooky :0
I even remember you posting that, but when I clicked on the link I got a 404 error...
We must both think of Helen Love whenever we hear the word 'shed' - how peculiar!

# I just realised that myself - I'd actually pasted a random bit of text instead of the url and never checked to see if it worked!
It's ninja'd now

# Also, I'd no idea it was Helen Love (or that Helen Love was anyone)
I just looked up the song and, cos I find it quite annoying didn't play the vid right through (hence why I didn't recognise your clip). I was also quite surprised to find out it's a female vocalist.

# I must have heard it 2 or 3 times on the radio back in 1998
and it STILL gets stuck in my head. I especially like how it namechecks loads of bands that have since disappeared and no-one even talks about now.

# 'You've got your Longpigs and your Bluetones!'
(actually, I really like Blue Skies by Longpigs for its demented siren intro... sigh, I'm so indie sometimes)
Also mentions Jonathan King before his very name became dangerous to say - the 90s were so innocent, weren't they..?

# I have been getting BIG TIME 90s nostalgia these last few months
Been listening to everything from Pulp to Massive Attack
(I helped save b3ta! Photoshop Bitch 2014 edition, Sat 21 Jul 2012, 18:33, archived)
# It was a time when bands with guitars were actually allowed in the top 10...
I've always preferred Pulp's 'This Is Hardcore' era to their britpop height - and all of Massive Attack is gooood :)
I've had a Pumpkins reawakening recently and good ol' Wedding Present...

# I'm not really too bothered about bands having guitars
In fact, speaking of Smashing Pumpkins, my favourite album of theirs is the electronica-tinged Adore.

# I think melon collie is their best

# Mellon Collie is a very close 2nd (and Siamese Dream is a very close 3rd)
In fact I possibly like Mellon Collie a little more, I just listen to Adore more these days. Plus Ava Adore is definitley my favourite Pumpkins song.

# Ooh, and Perfect is ace too
(I only really know the singles from Adore but I recall the last 17 second track being quite moving despite it's shortness)
(I helped save b3ta! The Silent Channel is getting his recommended 5-a-day, Sat 21 Jul 2012, 18:58, archived)
# Best non-single tracks on Adore
are Daphne Descends (which I think would have made a better second single than Perfect) and For Martha, which is really beautiful.

# *fires up Youtube*
while I'm here, Age of Innocence from Machina would've been an excellent single and Home from Machina II is the definiton of 'soaring'*

*though not officially

# Check out "Behold! The Night Mare" as well
I'll have to check out Machina a bit more. I only know the singles off that.

# I'd say Siamese Dream for the last two 'summer evening' songs
I wish Corgan wouldn't go around calling himself the Smashing Pumpkins now - though ironically the Wedding Present have been going around as just Gedge for years and I have no problem with that... I AM AN INDIE HYPOCRITE.

# True, although
I think the Pumpkins were always just a kind of backing band for him, so I guess it doesn't really matter who else is a member. I'm not familiar with any of the new incarnations music though, so can't comment on their actual goodness.

# yeah, siamese dream is also excellent, but mellon beats it for sheer volume of quality tracks

but fewer people are commenting. Seen loads of pics go without a single reply.
