I’ll change my mind in 10 mins but:

Oasis – Live Forever
Manics – Faster
Suede – Metal Mickey
Primal Scream – Loaded
Black Grape – Reverend Black Grape
Bjork – Isobel

Always happy to champion The Coral on here. The new album is really very good, but here’s a track from the last one which is a semi-regular ear worm of mine.
