Ultimate Pulp - Top 10s
Permalink  
 


It's been a while since these have been done and I've found myself listening to (and liking) Pulp songs I've not played for a while (i.e. "What Do You Say?"/"Sylvia"). So here goes, it would be too hard to put these in order but my current top 10 is:

What Do You Say?
Snow
Being Followed Home
Glory Days
Sylvia
In Many Ways
It's a Dirty World
Countdown (album version)
Sunrise
They Suffocate at Night

So come on, let's be having some Top 10s biggrin

At this moment...in no particular order -

Pink Glove (Peel Session) - just incredible.
Live On - Another song that comes ´´alive´´ in session rather than on record...(though this never made it onto record)

It´s A Dirty World
This Is Hardcore

(Probably the two most technically impressive songs Pulp wrote. Epic and despite being both over five minutes I always want to replay them when they finish)

(And the 6 below are perenially in my top ten)

Cuckoo
TV Movie
Something Changed
Ansaphone
Birds In Your Garden
Wickerman

1.Live Bed Show (Summer 1996/Autumn 2001 versions)
Love it. Especially second half from 2002 outro.

2.Something Changed
Forever the best!

3.Bad Cover Version
"Bad cover version of love..."

4.It's a Dirty World
Mistake severed part of the album.

5.Like a Friend (album version)
100% hit. And why they never performed it live?

6.The Birds in Your Garden
Second "Something Changed".

7.Wickerman
This song is almost about our town. We have a hydroelectric dam, metal works, coal mines, and our city is situated on the parallel of Sheffield.

8.Roadkill
Just a pretty sad song. It sounds like cold autumn wind.

9.I Spy (Brixton 1995)
Best orchestral accompaniment "in the midnight hour".

10.This is Hardcore
Melancholy

11.Babies (from later 2001-2002 concerts)
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..."

12.Forever in My Dreams
Hope for the future, which is not

13.Cuckoo Song
"One night then the moon is blue..." Blue moon appears in the sky on December 31 this year.

14.Little Girl (With Blue Eyes)
Are not you ashamed?;)

15.F.E.E.L.I.N.G.C.A.L.L.E.D.L.O.V.E. (2001 version)
The guitar sounds very good

16.Common People (1998/2001)
Always the loud end of the concert.

17.Razzmatazz
Scrambled

18.Sunrise
Quiet sunrise in the forest...

19.Cocaine Socialism
"Sniff..."

20.Wishful Thinking (Peel Session)
Young Sheffield tomatos;)

Hermmm....

Seconds - rediscovered just this Saturday night, after a particularly heavy night in Manchester. On the way to buy some cigs at 3am. Yes, we did the 14 year old phone/speaker thing (though it was a proper battery powered speaker) and this song was so good at the time that I'm only a little embarassed about that.

Ansaphone - was also rediscovered at the same time 

This is Hardcore

The Fear (breakdown one, if you must know)

His 'n' Hers

Razzmatazz. Particularly the auto recording, listen for someone shouting for Wickerman, and place bets on who, from this forum, it was... (not me)

Ladies' Man - reminds me of my college days, I listened to this track a dozen times on the day it was released in the computer labs, so it's here as a nostalgia trip more than anything.

Help The Aged - first Pulp song I taped off the radio!

Dishes

Death II

That's the one! I also recall another board poster shouting "Master of the Universe"!


And as for meeting Candida, that was a legendary moment, I can't agree with you more. Happy days!

Let's get this resurrected!

Mine has changed, it is currently:

Help the Aged
I can't stop listening to this at the moment, I'm playing it on repeat in my car for some reason or another. Whilst it wasn't the best choice for a comeback single, it's still a good song with a great video to accompany it.

Looking For Life
I might be in a minority here but I think that it is better than anything off the "It" album and an edited version would have fared better as a single than "Everybody's Problem".

Being Followed Home
A permanent resident in my top 10.

Glory Days
See above.

FEELINGCALLEDLOVE
Edinburgh Corn Exchange 2000. The memories biggrin

Weeds
Can't stop listening to this at the moment, especially the second half.

My Legendary Girlfriend
I have a love/hate relationship with this song. At the moment I can't get enough of it.

The Fear
The best start to an album ever.

The Day After The Revolution
"This is Hardcore" also ends on a high.

In Many Ways
I can't think of anything else to say about this except it's wonderful!

Your Sister's Clothes
