They did a live set on bbc6 music a couple of hours ago. Sure you can catch up on the app if you missed it

Agh nice one

They did a session years ago with the BBC orchestra.

Did a few great tunes like 'Mirror ball'
'One day like this' but some have been removed from YouTube for some weird reason. But they are truly brilliant if you can try and look them up.

I'm off to see them in June. Playing in Manchester, can't wait!

I’d never get tired a slapping him.

Sorry, can’t stand him, on a par with James Blunt for being annoying.

I went to uni at High Wycombe in the late 90s, saw a few famous people getting out of cars at a particular cash point at the end of the high street (never did find out why celebrities went there, it was bizarre!… Noel Gallagher, Richard E Grant, Heston dooya want a bloominstarter, Gaz from Supergrass, guitar-abuser from Texas, Craig Charles, Ian Mckellan…) near to one of the awful establishments I would drink in. All of them took some light hearted banter with some aplomb. One of my mates shouted “your hats are horny” to Jay Kay, this monstrosity turned round and shouted back “oh yeah, you’re a [Poor language removed]!, go [Poor language removed] yourself!

If he wasn’t so tiny, and I mean childlike, my friend would have torn him to bits. I later found out he lived in Beaconsfield which is just down the road from Wycombe (A despicable shithole by any metric). I can validate your thirst for violence. Sleep well friend.

Christ alive, ON is a magnificent album. “Four letter word” and “great things” are as good as any power pop/indie of the time. Dark therapy was a great outro to the energy of that album

Edit. I’ve mis-remembered, it’s the penultimate tune on the album.

I’d hazard a guess, that cash point was the nearest one to their dealer !

James Taylor and Carly Simon doing an absolutely stonking version of the Inez and Charlie Foxx song, Mockingbird.

As Indie/shoe gaze/ 90s music and its influence is most definitely coming back into fashion and onto radio now here’s a beauty. Thanks for the echobelly mindjog @Rita_Poon

There was a time in that late 90's era which had some wicked female fronted bands...
