Gogol are superb. First time I ever saw them was on Jools Holland, best thing on the show by a mile that night

I fell in love with a girl this weekend

This is the album I fell in love with her to.

It is 69 Love Songs by the Magnetic Fields.

It's superb. An album to fall in love to, an album to cry about love to, an album to pontificate about love to, an album to regret love to. 69 love songs all in different genres poking fun at, eulogising on, waxing lyrical on love

I am very fussy with music released post-1990 so take it from me, this is worth listening to. Highly critically acclaimed stuff too.

I Don't Believe In The Sun Kind of a Nick Cave vibe circa The Boatman's Call
Long Forgotten Fairytale Kind of like (will fill this in when I remember who I remember). Much more lively than the song above if you didn't fancy it. Also contains a dancing girl.
A Chicken With Its Head Cut Off Country vibes. Nice lyrics
The Death of Ferdinand De Saussure Just brilliant. One of those songs which keeps the same groove throughout (top bass line) but it's damn good. Kind of a bit REM-y if they were crossed with Belle and Sebastian. That's a terrible description. Just listen. Lovely chorus
Washington D.C Cheerleader intro turns into a beautiful song about the place your lover calls home
I Don't Want To Get Over You Breakup song for the foolish among us

I'm sorry, but I can't listen to the Magnetic Fields without thinking of this.  I even took a related photograph.

YES.

69 love songs is a bit uneven, but when it is good, it IS GOOD. including all of the ones linked above, I really love Epitaph for My Heart, Zebra, and Underwear.

If you haven't check out Holiday and The Charm of the Highway Strip. I don't think they've ever topped those.

Underwear.

Underwear is sort of like the best song Serge Gainsbourg never wrote, but mostly in English.

it is my girlfriend's favorite album/band, but I often can't stand them at all. I am a jerk.

Chicken with it's head cut off, though, wow. So good.

I can't stop listening to this song due to a cover on Burnt Weeny Sandwich (I like the Mothers versions better, but I can't find a good link for it). This happens to me a lot, where I put a song on repeat and annoy everyone around me.

I've been going through my Zappa record collection and listening to it all. I can't believe I never really listened to the Grand Wazoo before - it is so fuck*ng good.
