Why didn’t I put Happy Monday’s, 24 Hour Party People?!
Hmmm. Yes, I should rethink all of this. How could I miss out The Stone Roses’ ‘I am the Resurrection”? Swap out the Elbow track I nominated and all is OK. (Yes, Photoshop Handsome is *that* good)
And now I’m going to have to have a serious word with myself.
