    So, it was supposed to be "Birthday" then, or? Let's add them all in, why not? There are several lists with the same artist with more than one entry in them. The Sugarcubes are well worth it...

    I'm shocked how the amazing Coloma is overlooked here on last.fm. I see some of their tunes became fully streamable recently, so make sure you give them a try. Also, what Egoexpress normally does is far from abstract pop, but I think Aranda fits this list like a glove.

    Today's Lyrics

    Stereolab - With Friends Like These

    L: all this violence is puzzling
    Maybe the law should intervene.
    M: all this violence is threatening
    Hate is in need of censoring.

    L+m: ban hate and violence for our convenience (x2)
    (repeat once)

    L: don’t we all know the dangers
    Of two conflicting viewpoints?
    M: an active troublemaker (? )
    Banning the flame of dissent
    L+m: so much aggravation!
    L: to all haters: we’ll create some laws to stop you.
    M: you’re the danger; you really shouldn’t be allowed
    To...

    L: they piss on morality!
    M: they detest humanity!
    L: those savages should be banned!
    M: they’re so deeply offensive!
    L+m: somebody shut them up!

    [throughout the following section mary (I think) sings
    Something like: "once you catch them, kill them, kill
    Them"]

    L: ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
    They’ll still be full of ? ? ? shit (? )
    M: but it’s handy,
    We’ll blame it on human nature.
    (repeat from "they piss on... to "somebody shut them
    Up!)

    L: we’ll censor the hell out of you...
    M: we’ll coerce evil out of you...
    L: we’ll cut you’re tongue if we have to...
    M: you’re the baddies and we hate you...
    (repeat once)

    Today's Lyrics

    Lali Puna - Grin & Bear

    You’ve been told
    You’ve been told
    Leave your dignity at home
    It’s time to grin and bear
    You’ve been told they don’t know
    You’ve been told their hands are tied
    We won’t return
    We won’t return here
