Led Zeppelin, Kevin Ayres, Jethro Tull, Yes, Tontos expanding head band, Captain Beefheart, Love, Jim O rourke, Godspeed you black emperor, Kate Bush, Air, Bjork.

I'd be interested in hearing a high quality version of it with my headphones too.

I only like the synth work. As someone previously mentioned the production is good but yeah I can't stand beyonce's "singing" style either. They give her the effect of multiple beyonces' to me and I find it really quite intense and relentless.

i don't mind her singing too much, it's actually rare for me these days to hear a top 10 song without obvious autotune so i like it

i also thought her Pink Panther song from a couple years ago was pretty good, for a pop song it had a really neat chorus that sounded almost like a locked groove.

it's when a vinyl record has a built in loop, usually at the end of a record but looking back i should have said that the Beyonce song 'check on it' sounds more like a vinyl skip or accidental loop in the chorus its a . When i first heard it i thought it was pretty weird but it grew on me.

i have a nostalgic love for the pet shop boys 'discography' greatest hits album. i once found it on my parents floor when i was 6 and listened to it to death then, i revisited it about a year ago and realised i still really love it.

Looking back on this post, is there anything for me actually to be ashamed of? Bjork perhaps?
