  1. 🇬🇧 David Bowie "Loving the Alien" – 1984

    Some say this is the only Bowie track on the album "Tonight". I agree it's a great track. 👍 Bowie sings about religious conflict, historical violence and the dangerous comfort of believing in simple answers (*cough* USA) The single reached No. 19 in the UK...

  2. 🇩🇰 Martin Hall "Real Thing" – 1988

    At more than five minutes, the track develops patiently around programmed rhythms, layered keyboards and Hall’s distinctive, controlled vocal delivery. The lyrics give the song an almost spiritual intensity, revolving around inner conviction, transformation and the feeling of having found a direction...

  12. Decided to actually try out the vinyl after saving it from water damage and after a spin in the Humminguru it's perfect. Actually all the damage has been fixed by keeping it under pressure in the shelf for a few days. The bonus 12" is the best part.

    🇬🇧 David Bowie "hours..." – 1999

    Bowie returns to a more intimate, song-driven sound. Acoustic and 12-string guitars, restrained electronics and Reeves Gabrels’ textured guitar work give the album a reflective, sometimes melancholic atmosphere that lyrically deals with ageing, memory, relationships and the passing of time...

  32. 🇬🇧 Morrissey "Everyday Is Like Sunday" – 1988

    One of Morrissey’s most evocative early solo recordings. A deceptively gentle melody, sweeping strings and Vini Reilly’s understated guitar create a beautiful counterpoint to the song’s bleak vision of a deserted seaside town and impending catastrophe.
    It reached No. 9 in the UK Singles Chart...
