That's why I gave you a cocktail glass. Cemented the victory knowing Plugger would either give me the win or get a DSQ

Objects

 

[por_please_ya]

Objects definitely

 

[JHF1870]

I'm so glad I didn't go for "meano" Fossie 32 I realized it wouldn't fit the playlist then beelined The Cure and discovered that gem. Smith sings that song so passionately and it builds and builds and build.

Have to say thanks to everyone, that playlist was awesome. Really emotional stuff.

 

[Chipmunk]

First one please

 

[JHF1870]

OK

Theme is human made objects, Title/Artist/Album. Bonus points for album art

No previous podiums

I have only just discovered Elliott Smith's Either/Or album, it's only about 28 years too late, it wasn't on my radar back in 1997.

I was too busy listening to Radiohead's OK Computer and The Verve's Urban Hymns albums but Either/Or is up there with them.

First time listen as well. Can't say it was my kind of music sorry. Maybe I have to listen to some of his other music.
