13. Lloyd Cole & The CommotionsRattlesnakes

“Louise is the girl with the perfect skin/ She says turn on the light, otherwise it can’t be seen/ She’s got cheekbones like geometry and eyes like sin/ And she’s sexually enlightened by Cosmopolitan”. To think that was a hit record! It can be done. It can be done. I can remember everything. Again, it’s one of my favourite covers ever – the mystery of this story of a hazy door – are you going to open it and enter this world of student bedsit literary excellence? It’s a really underrated album and I absolutely adore it to this day. I’ve been trying to get my kids into it, but they’re not having it. It’s all Daft Punk for them.
