Can't believe nobody's said Blue Monday

For raving around the living room I always like to revisit what I listened to in my daft goth days - Bauhaus, Sisters of Mercy, early Cure, Siouxsie.

You have to do the dance too: see the bat, catch the bat, embrace the bat, hurl the bat aside Grin

If non-goth kids and husband are raving too, Billy Idol is a more universally acceptable choice.

Or Underworld, Born Slippy.
