Through a nearly normal chain of musical association beginning with the Moog Cookbook's "Basket Case" (1996) and progressing through Rasputina's "Why Don't You Do Right?" and "Brand New Key" (1996), spatch has just played me the Wurzels' "Combine Harvester" (1976) and I'm going to bed.

it compounded my experience of "what the fuck, I guess the scrumpy-and-western phase went with the rest of the memories Buttercup was obliged to trade in."

We both agree he sometimes manages to sneak “Brand New Key” into rotation every few months, yeah?

Have I shared the Surfrajettes' instrumental cover of "Toxic" (2018) with you? It is unironically my favorite version of the song.

I think so, and I agree. (My favourite version of “Oops, I Did It Again” is Max Raabe’s)

Absolutely. (And agreed on Max Raabe.)
