Share youtube, songwhip, spotify, bandcamp links, music memes, album art, articles, whatever! But avoid links to directly download music (don't want to get Lemmy.world in trouble). Songwhip links always appreciated!

See this post on recs on how to post!

The Golden Rule: Music taste is subjective so don't be a gatekeeping asshole. There's no "bad music", only music you like or don't like.

We Are A Community: So no racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or spam.

Out of the all the bands who are in my top 50 most listened to, The Sundays are one of the few that I was never able to see live.

last.fm tells me that I have listened to Reading, Writing and Arithmetic 110 times digitally. However, I also own physical copies on cassette, CD and vinyl. I reckon that I must have clocked up somewhere near 1000 plays by now.

Do you like their other 2 albums? They also have some very good songs that were b-sides.

I only heard and had the first on casette, this song being in my reportoire busking and campfiring. Iโ€™ll give them a listen soon.
