BenJen's Blog

Welcome to my blog. A place where you may not find consistency, but where you will find various rants and irrelevant anecdotes, and 'witty' text on the subject of whatever crops up into a poor student's mind.
Please, do try to enjoy it... Constructive criticism is more than welcomed.

Have a nice day now, chaps and chappettes.

Warning: May contain traces of football, video games, and musical ramblings... It's mostly the latter, in truth.

My Music Guilty Pleasures: #10

Into the top 10, we charge! I've been simultaneously both dreading and gleefully anticipating this home straight. Without further ado, let's break into the final third.

Moloko - Pure Pleasure Seeker



Ah yes, this one's a bloody corker. Something about that looped brass riff gets me in the best possible way. Unfortunately, I don't think many people are aware of this song and so haven't been gotten in that same way. Worse than that, most people are completely unaware of Moloko these days after their split in 2006. Look up 'Sing It Back' and 'The Time Is Now' on YouTube; you'll know at least one of 'em for sure. No, I will not link them to you, you lazy bastard. With any luck we'll see a Moloko revival at some point in the near future, as their disbandment has been quoted as being only tentative and potentially temporary. Fingers crossed. I suppose the main reason this track has reached such an impressive peak point on this list is more to do with just how much I like it, rather than how much of a guilty pleasure it is. Yeah, it's another one of those songs. Seriously though, I like this way more than I should. I defy you to disagree; which you probably will because music's entirely subjective. Guess I'm just a pure guilty pleasure seeker...
