"Hand In Glove" is one of the few songs by The Smiths which I disliked when I first heard... and even after going through an all-Smiths phase, that was a song I always excluded[xx(]

You should definitely give The Durutti Column a try. It's not depressing music, but it's very mellow and sort of meditative. The bulk of Vini Reilly's songs are instrumentals comprised of electric guitar and some other odd things.

I know The Durutti Column... but their albums are not available here. That's the incovenience of living in Argentina. [;)]

What songs or albums have you heard by him? This is one artist whom I want to eventually own all the albums to[:)]

Check out "Slo-Glyde" from a compilation called [i]The Return Of The Sporadic Recordings[/i]:

Very spacy and poppy.

XXX, thanks for that song.... IT'S EXCELLENT.

Here are some:

The Associates- Breakfast
The Durutti Column- Mercy Theme
Eyeless In Gaza- Letters to She
The Style Council- Ghosts Of Dachau
Felt- Now Summer Spreads Its Wings Again

The Duritti Column debut (strangely enough called "the return of the Duritti Column") will take you from giddy to melancholy in under 5 minutes. Songs like "Sketch for Summer" and "Requiem for a father" are pretty convincing....

Cure - Pictures Of You (It means a lot though)

Right now, I'm listening to "Life is a Red Wagon" by Jane Siberry. Another one of her songs that has actually moved me to tears is "It Can't Rain All the Time."

Yes, it does... and not only for us, but also for Robert. He has expressed it many times.

Til Tuesday's entire first album really gets to me - especially Looking Over My Shoulder & Voices Carry. The whle album really reflected a lot of what I was feeling at the time. Still love it, never get sick of it!

Prefab Sprout - Goodbye Lucille No.1

Please keep 'em coming guys... I'm going to compile all these songs in my mp3 player and listen for hours.... then I just might kill myself afterwards.
