The Smiths - "I Started Something I Couldn't Finish"

Apart from my obvious love of The Smiths, they also have a song I can use as my apology letter, probably to myself more than anyone else. Literally, "I Started Something I Couldn't Finish" with this so-called daily song blog. So instead of taking the 'daily' from the sub title, I will eventually get my act together. In February we should be back to sharing some of the newly added Bitter FM playlist songs and some of the regular gems.... on a daily basis.

Ultra Orange & Emmanuelle - "Sing Sing"

This song from Ultra Orange and Emmanuelle (Seigner) ticks so many boxes for me - I'll go through the list.

Speak singing - a la Black Box Recorder
Indie twee - see above, again
French chanteuses
The Velvet Underground and Nico
Serge Gainsbourg
Roman Polanski movies featuring Emmanuelle Seigner
Let's just say all Roman Polanski movies, period
Mazzy Star

There are plenty more, but this will do for now....

Happy New Year!
