Phew! I just finished a huge buttload of work that has consumed every fibre of my being for the past couple weeks. And now it's over! And now I'm gonna slack off for the rest of the day!

Does anyone have some happy bouncy jangly guitarry music out there to post for me? pretty please? I'll dig some up too...

I forget what song this is. I think it's Coax's All Brand New, but I stepped away from the computer and don't remember. Anyway, it's jangle pop, whatever it is.

gaspode: We had two great posts already today with good guitar and other stringed instruments. Check out jonmc's and skrik's just below.

Overnight Sensation (Hit Record) - Raspberries
Go All The Way- The Raspberries

(possibly two of the perfect pop-rock songs)

mischief, they were good. And I have downloaded them all. And I'm looking for poppy-rocky stuff, not stuff that makes AC/DC look like the MTC.

Another Girl, Another Planet - The Only Ones

(another relatively unknown gem)

jonmc! that used to be one of my FAVORITE songs! I can't *believe* you posted that song. Didn't even recognise the name until I started listening to it. Yay!

Cat Inna Can by my favourite band, Straitjacket Fits.

Reminds me of summer days in college.

"Falling & Laughing" - Orange Juice

That should be happy, bouncy, jangly, guitarry, and downright exhuberant enough for you.

Hey Jon, were you ever a Shoes fan?

Two from The Posies:

Solar Sister

King Midas in Reverse (which mops the floor with The Hollies' original.)

hall of robots, I'm not getting a valid link. It looks like the name of the song has been included in the link, which I've never seen yousendit do.

And bmarkey, LOVE The Posies' King Midas in Reverse. Thanks!

For a laugh, Mike Post - Theme to Magnum, P.I.

posted by goatdog 02 November | 17:59

No need to be sorry, hall of robots - downloading as I type. Much appreciated!

Yay! wonderful posts.

FYI, I'm getting nothing from s37.yousendit.com -- anybody else, it isn't just you.

Heh. Mine was actually Terrorized by The Posies. Lots of Posies here.
