Select a song that everyone has to hear & may not have before

A great start, The Wombats & Nick Cave. This thread has (late night) legs written all over it

I'll give you the little known Tim OT and "Romantic Warfare"

A dull tune perhaps but you'll be humming it for days if you give it a listen (or six ).

And I can't let an intro to a band or singer thread without offering up the marvellous Beans On Toast (AKA Jay McAlistair, the man behind Nambucca etc). Might not be the best song as an intro but as good as I can manage right now I'm afraid.

The Kyrie from the Missa Papae Marcelli by Palestrina

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIcrgNtyX0U

Here's why...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missa_Papae_Marcelli

Essentially it's a story of politics, sociology, religion, decadence, laciviousness and art all rolled into one. It all seems very tame now, but in it's day, it was more controversial than any music is now. Polyphony v Plainsong.

The Sabre Dance by Love Sculpture from 1968. Featuring Dave Edmunds on guitar before his solo career took off.

This is a hidden gem, dance but likeable. make sure you listen to the end as the best bit is after 5mins.
