let's play.
once upon a time there was a city in yorkshire called sheffield
(pulp, arctic monkeys, sheep etc)
on a beaufitul sunny day, 8 days after the most special canada day ever,
the bsst band in the galaxy came to sheffield
my friend J and me were there
we came to the venue at about 4pm
*they* were there...and saw us...and didn't run away!
kd asked us what we'd like to hear that night
so i gave him the 'oh-my-god-they're-never-gonna-play-these-songs-live' part of the wishlist i'd written on the train to manchester [jun28, dan mangan+bss]
i think he kinda liked it
then he sang us a part of one of those songs
what i want you to tell me is the name of the song
(pls post it as a comment)
the first lucky bsstard will get a signed copy of their self-titled album from me.
(i think this blog post finally started making sense)
IMPORTANT> one song at a time please
IMPORTANT TOO> you can post more comments/songs but please let 5 other people guess before you post another one.
have fun.
chris
p.s. i'm asking this because
- i know the answer
- google does not :)

but...sorry it wasn´t this one.
Bandwitch?
Hotel
oh man..this looks like the start of a dream setlist!
but it was something different :)
I THINK I KNOW IT. But I have to wait... :)
Superconnected?
john: then i wat to know too!
yasmin: no :( they played superconnected all the time and it was always one of the highlights. the :whitey on guitar vs. david on sax: solos were heavenly!
All My Friends?
Backyards.
market fresh
'all my friends' was my next guess!
i guess i'm gonna go with...
"Where's Your Heart?"
(totally picking obscure ones here...)
Swimmers?
Canada vs. America?
Death Cock!
Let's Get Out of Here?
Prison Province!
and the winner is....
well there's no winner yet.
(but there's a finite number of bss songs in this world)
Is it... Passport Radio?
Until It's Dead?
Major Label Debut?
no no no :)
'obscure ones' = 'good ones' :D
May I try again?
Stomach Song?
\begin(hint)
'feel good lost' is too obscure.
\end(hint)
Jimmy and the Photocall?
Windsurfing Nation?
I'm Still Your Fag..?
Pacific theme?
..trying to imagine kevin singing pacific theme :D
hint #2
forget all studio albums.
Everybody's Fucking Everyone
Christina, you're awesome and this is really fun.
But if it's not "Cocaine Skin", I'm going to get ANGRY!
Do The 95. Yeah.
My last guess: All the Gods
aahhh I was going to say everybody's fucking everyone!
ugh is shaharazed an AOH song or a BSS song? I've never really been able to tag it correctly on my itunes.
Well I say it's that one! (just in case... I mean, I would request that song.)
all the gods was gonna be my next guesssss DANG!
I've collected your letters and put 'em in a place you'll know oh oh ??
westminster?
One Night Man?
comment #42
wow...westminster, one night man, efe and the one with 'letters' are a bit closer than pacific theme.
(hiding under the bed, someone's gonna kill me for this whole thing) :D
Choose Your Own Adventure (from the live KEXP show)
sidenote: does anyone have a copy of Westminster that they'd be willing to put up for download?
How about...
That one untitled song Kevin Drew made up on the spot to sing on BBC6 because they wouldn't play TBTF????
here: http://goo.gl/ChHcu
Escarpment Blues?
"Have a Life"?
Summer Time Dues?
Untitled #33?
At this point I just wanna know! hahaha
But what does that mean
for you and me?
ha!
bye bye cd,
congrats wishasana,
thanks everyone..you were just awesome! this is the best list of bss (+sarah harmer:)) songs
ever! and it was fun too!
Matt -> something for you
http://www.mediafire.com/?e1drxlk2jhn
Hélène -> hard to say but I'd probably request it before an aoh gig.
oh...and the whole thing is here
http://bit.ly/hmv92b
there's no other proof
you just have to believe me (:
Thanks Chris! This has always been my favourite BSS focused blog because you keep it so interesting. You seem like a person who likes to sit and have a coffee by the way.
I agree re: Shaharazed. I consider that to be an AOH song.
Does second place get to meet Kevin Drew? ;)
Cool! Thanks! It's -20 so summertime's over-due by my estimation. Is there an email I can contact you at?
Could someone fill me in on what songs were written when? Were Summer Times Dues, Westminister, and a good handful of those Feel Good Lost era? o:
thanks again everyone :)
matt>
sit: it's called 'home office' in my company ;)
coffee: definitely. rule#1 = 'don't drink 4 cups a day otherwise you'll still be up when amy sends the correct answer @3:something a.m.'
john>
songs: one night man+w'minster = spirit if... jp edition bonus tracks
summer time dues = (summer of?) 2008
wheres your heart, wheres your mind
I thought I was a real BSS fan until I read these comments and didn't recognize the songs you guys were naming. I still love this band and they blew my mind when I saw them live
