Citrus - Asobi Seksu

Advantages: too many, it's amazing
Disadvantages: if you don't like madchester stuff

...of vocals by Ian Brown. This track is just beautiful. 4. Don't Stop 'Don't Stop' is an experiment based around reversing the tape of the previous song 'Waterfall' which as far as I'm concerned is the weakest track on the album. 5. Bye Bye Badman This track is a light, breezy tune, with 'citrus sucking sunshine' providing one of the albums finest images. The teasing vocals are over this track so that each new time you hear them they sound refreshing and new. 6. Elizabeth My Dear This is basically the old folk standard 'Scarborough Fair' dressed up in anti-royalist clothes.

Advantages: 97.4% better than a lot of stuff out there at the minute
Disadvantages: The CD doesn't make a very good ashtray

...Who/What? Three quarters Canadian, one quarter British seems to be the perfect mix, well, a better mix than Coca Cola and orange anyway, which isn’t a difficult thing really all things considered, I mean, well done on your successful pairings with vanilla, citrus zest, cherry and lemon, but orange? Anyway, time to backtrack, get off this tangent and back on to the never ending circle of Pop (short for Popular, remember that, won’t you?). Dragonette are here, they have been for a while actually, but it’s only recently that they’ve started to get their selves noticed by the great unwashed, and if you’ll give me a moment of your time, I’ll take you on the quick tour.
