What band had you forgotten were/are really good.

Crowded House for me. DH is cooking and put them on. Amazing voice and lyrics. I haven't heard them for ages.

The Magnetic Fields. Hence my username.

Shed Seven

Idlewild

ABC and Level 42…..>>>>>>>> shuffles off…….

ABC and Level 42…..>>>>>>>> shuffles off…….

Oh, these give me childhood nostalgia so badly!

I was going to say Razorlight and Hard Fi's first album.

Was so impressed when I saw Cud recently, 30 years after last listening to them.

Sinead O'Connor

I think it only works if you have forgotten them and rediscovered. There are a few in this thread that I never stopped listening to 😊

For me I recently rediscovered Ride.
Love them.

Echo and the Bunnymen

I love ABC - so good. Level 42 was a rediscovery for me too. Stands the test of time.

I'm ashamed to say I haven't heard of some of these. I'll be checking them out though.

@RenoDakota Yes, 69 Love Songs gets a spin round here every 6 months or so.

Yes, thirded! Absolutely love Aztec Camera, can't get over how a teenager wrote and performed Oblivious.

Del Amitri - still going strong.

Me too. Just this week

I haven't forgotten but other might have

Agree with Squeeze, huge fan here.

Del Amitri are amazing and have recently released a new album which is great. I also love Brett Anderson as a solo artist outside of Suede

😂

Idlewild! Now that's a flashback musically.

Live in a hiding place, when I argue I see shapes..... feel 16 again!

For me Semisonic randomly came on the radio other day.

So weird and random because I was never that into them as a kid but Supertramp.
Breakfast in America. Great album.
Toto too. Georgy Porgy. Tuuuuune.
Ever since Gerry Rafferty’s Right Down the Line was played in Ozark, I’ve been burning that tune as well My kids can’t stand this phase I’m in. Way too cheesy for them. 😆
I’m also going through a Sade phase. Just loving all the memories of listening to her in my 20s while living and travelling around Europe.

I’m a die-hard Smiths fan. I’m 50 and I still wear my 35 year old Smiths T shirts, OP. 🤩

I saw Texas live in the 00s. They were really good. It was around the Wu-Tang collab. Saw them about 5 years later and it was like Sharleen was doing us a favour. Seemed so bored.

My dd who is 16 is really into Fleetwood Mac/Stevie Nicks at the moment. Its a thing with her age group I think. Also Dolly Parton. 😂
