A classic from Pulp. Many have left, the bar was shut, but still there was one final great album to be made. If "Common People" was an apex of Britpop, "This Is Hardcore" soundtracked the closing of it just as great.

This may not be the video to it, but I have to mention Gene's standout moment in my opinion.

You missed out the best song from that entire movement..



And seeing as we're going back further

Damn, I still have Birdland's album, which was something I traveled with for a while. I always like going back to the early days of the whole thing...and while I'm on that chapter, here's 5:30.

I think their first breakthrough...



Their "funky Fools Gold wanna-be" happening, with I think a bit of attitude that makes it stand out.



...and possibly my favorite song from Bed.
