Once loved


 Most Friday nights in my house involve YouTube and red wine and that's what brought me to write this post.

Once loved albums - there's so many........some I'm particularly embarrassed to admit. You know the ones you loved when you were thirteen and danced round your bedroom too. The ones you play to your new boyfriend when your eighteen and think your really cool. He tells you he loves Eminem so you play him a remix of Eminem and Vanilla Ice (*cringing as I write this), only years later did he tell me how much he hated this! We now laugh a lot at this! 

But I'm talking about the ones that were great ten years ago and still are. The ones that still sound great and never get bored of. 

The Kooks - inside in/inside out
This was probably the first indie album I ever loved from beginning to end( especially Eddies Gun and Jackie Big Tits) The mid 2000's brought something new to the charts and the Kooks was just what it needed. 

Florence - Lungs
This may not be ten years old but I love love love this album. Florence has so much passion in her voice and  every song makes you want to kick of your heels and dance. If you don't have this album I suggest you download it immediately. 

Artic Monkeys - whatever people say I am, that's what I'm not
This was definitely the best album they have ever done, every song is so catchy and has never dated. I even had don't you look good on the dance floor as my ring tone back when this was released. 

The Streets - Original Pirate Material 
To be totally honest I think most of the streets albums are fantastic but this one which was released way back in 2002 is fantastic. still to this day not many British artists can do what Mike Skinner has done and that's create something so raw and so honest but with a great beat. I've seen him live twice (once in Ibiza *see attached photo) and he was absolutely amazing.
