List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they're not any good, but they must be songs you're really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your LJ along with your 7 songs. Then tag everyone to see what they're listening to.

In homage to my new-found addiction to YouTube, I've found the videos for all songs! Click on the links:

1) Maximo Park - Apply Some Pressure
2) Oingo Boingo - Stay
3) Pet Shop Boys - Always on my Mind
4) Rihanna - SOS (such an earworm!)
5) Propaganda - Duel
6) Suede - Europe Is Our Playground
7) The Smiths - The Boy with the Thorn in his Side

Oh, the magic...

You know that I... would love to see you next year

Nostalgia...

The first cut won't hurt at all

Oh...

From Heathrow to Hounslow, from the Eastern Bloc to France

Oooh...

And if they don't believe me now...

Thanks for that. HUGELY enjoyable! And now I'm just wishing that the Pet Shop Boys had made a video for "That's My Impression".

Staring at faces, by the Serpentine...

Thanks, by the way. That was really nice.

You are welcome. Any chance of you finding the videos for your current top 7?

My favourite videos keep disappearing from YouTube, probably due to copyright infringement. I'd probably post a set of seven dead links!

Placing it here!

I don't own any of their albums but I saw them live recently, at Koko, and they just blew me away.

Ooh - Maximo Park are ace-tastic - and I always have much love for Pet SHop Boys and The Smiths.

I'll have to do some research and find the vids for my seven :)

Always on my mind is a classic! I love that video, and the Pet Shop Boys do a better version of the song than Elvis originally did

I agree... they've made it into a real anthem.

A music video search proved fruitless. Surprise. My latest infatuations:
  1. Peggy Lee - "Black Coffee"
  2. Corrine Bailey Rae - "Put Your Records On (Acoustic)"
  3. Stan Getz & Astrud Gilberto - "Corcovado"
  4. Tony Bennett - "Mood Indigo"
  5. Louis Armstrong - "Beale Street Blues"
  6. Harry Connick, Jr. - "To See You"
  7. Dorothy Loudon - "A Terrific Band and a Real Nice Crowd"

I know the Astrud Gilberto one, but the others are a mystery.

Aw, I saw the posters around but hadn't heard the song yet. Shame about those radio stations which now shrug off PSB. Hope you have a good time at the gig.
