Starshy – Heavenly The warmest opening to an album ever. One chord at an ever-felicitous tempo, compressed to the blanketest of fidelities, and then it becomes a Heavenly song and even better. Here’s a picture of the biggest injoke in the world:

I Fell In Love Last Night

I fell in love last night – Heavenly I’m glad this song came up because it gives me a reason to finally change the mp3s i have of this single. For some reason both this and the b-side cut off around 3 minutes in. Perhaps it was a punishment, a revenge, dished out by the [...]
P.U.N.K. Girl

P.U.N.K. girl – Heavenly Yes! Another acrostic song. P is for the painful way she makes me feel some days. U is for Utopia, the other times with her. N is for the new wave dreams she had back in her teens. K is for the kid in her, my P.U.N.K. girl. Everything the song [...]
I’m Not Scared Of You

I’m not scared of you – Heavenly If pop music in various roundabout ways is an edict of relationship advice (and when has it ever not been?), then this song is one of the more heedworthy admonitions in any song/heartbook. To not be afraid, threatened, held to ransom, duped… Amelia, she with the most capricious [...]
Wrap My Arms Around Him

Wrap my arms around him – Heavenly Because i’m sure this song has come up before, here, have a live version of what might be my favourite Heavenly song. But that’s a claim that takes some consideration and is made void once i remember the Heavenly songs i like that little bit more. Shallow, for [...]

I fell in love last night – Heavenly The record that started it all. Not for me – it was By The Way i first heard, met with instant infatuation. Not for Sarah – this was number 30. It could be argued not even for Heavenly – that this was a continuation in spirit and [...]
So Little Deserve

So little deserve – Heavenly “No one can live this way forever, but what’s wrong with indulging in a little daydreaming now and then?” – Everett True, in his review of Heavenly vs. Satan. I don’t know why i pasted that there. I don’t hold Everett True up to be the be-all-end-all of rock journalists, [...]
So Little Deserve

So little deserve – Heavenly Two things struck me while driving along listening to Heavenly yesterday, looking for keyboards. Firstly, thanks to youtube and the history it dredges up for those who had no access to it, i can’t now not imagine Amelia cradling her guitar during the quiet parts where she sings and nothing [...]
Orange Corduroy Dress

Orange corduroy dress – Heavenly You (I) sit around on youtube, typing the same search queries over and over in vain hope someday someone old will realise they have an amazing, as yet unpooled tape resource and upload it. Sometimes it happens. Last night it happened. Live footage of Heavenly. Finally, i know what they [...]
Orange Corduroy Dress

Orange corduroy dress – Heavenly Perfect. Simply and thoroughly perfect. Even when Peter Momtchiloff steps on that distortion pedal about two and a quarter minutes in, a huge seeming no no in this music and people’s want of it. But that’s a ridiculous thing even to bring up, and it’s a horrible loss of faith [...]
