The Music Cup Round 6 - Manchester

First topic message reminder :

The lead at the top has changed for the first time and I'm no longer top!

This round is all about bands/singers from Manchester and its surrounding area.

So without further ado the choices are...

Buzzcocks - Ever Fallen in Love
David Gray - Sail Away
Joy Division - Love Will Tear Us Apart
New Order - True Faith
Oasis - Champagne Supernova
Oasis - Don't Look Back in Anger
Oasis - Wonderwall
Stone Roses - She Bangs the Drum
The Hollies - Bus Stop
The Verve - Bittersweet Symphony

As usual pick your fave three!

Youtube links will go up tonight as at work at mo (unless someone fancies adding them up?)

Don't worry Davie, I'm sure there will be a jive round and maybe a symphonies round!

Damn youngsters!

I thought this was a "music" cup

Just cause it's not available on gramophone doesn't mean it's not music!

According to the current Mr CJ, if it's not got a gatefold sleeve with a picture of a spaceship on the front then it's not proper music.

Mr CJ may well have a point there - though sadly that definition would cause the terminally bland ELO to be included in the definition

How about a one hit wonder round?

A one hit wonder 70s disco fever hit round?

We need a Soul round.
