Timeless Melody (live BBC Session) (.mp3)by The La's [video - wiki - iTunes]
Hailing from Liverpool, The La's only released one studio album and are best known for one song - There She Goes. That's unfortunate. As Pitchfork once described, "The La's are a band surrounded by myth and critical reverence. Their story is a frustrating tale of thwarted perfectionism and unfulfilled potential that still doesn't have a proper ending." Sometimes great bands are short-lived, but luckily their music lasts forever. Timeless Melody is another one of their fantastic tunes, and this version was recorded live for a BBC session. It's arguably better than the studio album version.
Timeless Melody - I can't think of two more appropriate words to describe Britpop. We only scratched the surface with Britpop Week. Special thanks to super music friends Annmarie, Ariel, and Jeff for their contributions. We had fun, and we'll have to do it again soon.
