The latest Sound of The Ladies podcast is out now, featuring a cover of Pulp classic Disco 2000, via All Apologies by Nirvana and Cherub Rock and 1979 by Smashing Pumpkins. It’s less novelty song than it sounds. It’s like the 90s never died. Please say the 90s never died. You can listen below:

In other news, music blog Large-hearted Boy has included my top ten albums of the noughties in a (admittedly large) roundup of such end-of-year lists - so thanks to them. There’s also a nascent campaign to make The Sound of the Ladies Xmas number 1 in 2010. For the usual x-factor hating reasons. Now, I don’t agree with all of this blogger’s arguments about why the Rage Against the Machine Number 1 was an epic fail, but I’m up for a Christmas #1. Let’s do this, people.

Brilliance, utter brilliance. Lovely jolly thought provoking melodies throughout and although its a cover it sounds more original than I thought would be possible, beats original by far. well done, keep up the good work

Thanks George! Just waiting for the lawsuit. Those holding the rights to the Nirvana estate aren’t remotely litigious, right?

im sure not. And if anything was to arise just point out that when you sing the line ‘would you like to come and meet me maby?’ you are in fact singing ‘maybe’ instead of ‘maby’. You may be a copy cat but at least you can spell

Oh! Like! Agree with George.
That Pulp song. Considered “weak” by many because of its ridiculous rhyming but never fails to break my heart, idky, particularly that line “you can even bring your baby”.
