The Housemartins - five get over excited live, 1997

"The live version of "Five Get Over Excited" on Raise the Flag by The Housemartins was recorded at the Austin City Limits festival in Texas in 1987."

Club 8 - don't be gone, 1996

"Club 8 consists of Karolina Komstedt and Johan Angergård, formed in 1995 in Stockholm, Sweden. Their early sound, as heard in Nouvelle, blends anorak pop with influences from bands like The Smiths and Sarah Records artists. The song "Don't Be Gone" reflects their signature dreamy, melancholic style, with introspective lyrics about honesty and emotional support in relationships. Nouvelle is noted for its 13 tracks, including other songs like "Blue Skies" and "Me Too"

Edward II - my love the horizontal polka, 1991

"My Love (The Horizontal Polka)" fits their pattern of mixing traditional elements with modern or whimsical twists. The "horizontal polka" phrase itself is a colloquial euphemism, adding a layer of humor or innuendo, which aligns with the band's creative approach."

It's Immaterial - summer winds, 1990

"Held in high esteem by Its Immaterial fans, Song was retrospectively described by Whitehead as "the It's Immaterial idea to an extreme," while Campbell said that he and Whitehead "were very proud of what we'd offered. If you look at what you're trying to produce as works of art, I actually thought Song was the nearest I'd got to something that would actually stand the test of time. And I think it's proven that."

Club 8 - breakdown, 1996

"Club 8, who are Karolina Komstedt and Johan Angergård, began their career in 1995 and have not stopped making their signature brilliant music since. Each of the seven albums they have released is testimony to Karolina and Johan’s mastery of their talent, the band’s evolution and the refinement of their sound. They make for an interesting study in the life of the pop sensation that they have become."

Saint Etienne - sugarhouse lane, 2006

"There is history aplenty in the Lower Lea Valley, for all the neglect and decay that now characterises the landscape. The street names alone are steeped in it: Pudding Mill Lane, Sugarhouse Lane and Waterworks River. The building that housed the Bryant and May match factory, where the match girls famously went on strike and begat the Labour Movement, still stands in nearby Bow. Around the corner on Wallis Road, a tiny plaque stuck absurdly high on a brick wall announces with little fanfare that plastic was invented here. As Bob Stanley puts it: 'Right here, in Hackney Wick, they invented the future.' Elsewhere, nature has started to take over again, with algae and moss creeping over concrete and steel."

Saint Etienne - mervyn's theme, 2006

"A melancholy loveletter to what we now know as the capital’s Olympic zone"

Micheál And Eilish - róisín dubh, 1990

"Róisín Dubh" ("Dark Rosaleen" or "Little Dark Rose") is one of Ireland's most famous political songs. It is based on an older love-lyric which referred to the poet's beloved rather than, as here, being a metaphor for Ireland. The intimate tone of the original carries over into the political song. It is often attributed to Antoine Ó Raifteiri, but almost certainly predates him."

Micheál And Eilish - mná na héireann cover, 1990

"Mná na hÉireann" (English: Women of Ireland) is a poem written by Irish poet Peadar Ó Doirnín (1700–1769), most famous as a song, and especially since set to an air composed by Seán Ó Riada (1931–1971). Peadar Ó Doirnín lived in Forkhill in south Armagh, Ireland and is buried in Urnaí graveyard nearby in County Louth. He is best known for his song 'Úrchnoc Chéin Mhic Cáinte'. It was the editor of an anthology of his poems (1969), Dr. Breandan Ó Buachalla who gave the lyrics its title 'Mná na hÉireann'."

Club 8 - those charming men, 1996

"Club 8, who are Karolina Komstedt and Johan Angergård, began their career in 1995 and have not stopped making their signature brilliant music since. Each of the seven albums they have released is testimony to Karolina and Johan’s mastery of their talent, the band’s evolution and the refinement of their sound. They make for an interesting study in the life of the pop sensation that they have become."

Micheál And Eilish - dublin in the rare old times cover, 1990

"In the song, the narrator, Sean Dempsey, who comes from Pimlico, a working-class neighbourhood in the Dublin Liberties, recalls his upbringing. He laments the changes that have occurred in the city since his youth, mentioning the loss of Nelson's Pillar, the Metropole ballroom, the "Royal" (Theatre Royal). He dislikes the "new glass cages", the modern office blocks and flats being erected along the quays, and says farewell to Anna Liffey (the River Liffey)."

Micheál And Eilish - the mountains of mourne cover, 1990

"The song is a whimsical look at the styles, attitudes and fashions of late nineteenth-century London as seen from the point of view of an emigrant labourer from a village near the Mourne Mountains. It is written as a message to the narrator's true love at home. The "sweep down to the sea" refrain was inspired by the view of the mountains from Skerries in north County Dublin. It contrasts the artificial attractions of the city with the more natural beauty of his homeland."

Micheál And Eilish - the lonesome boatman cover, 1990

"The Lonesome Boatman is a 1969 album by the Irish folk music duo Finbar & Eddie Furey. It is best known for its title track which is played hauntingly on a tin whistle, as well as its version of the traditional ballad Carnlough Bay."

Micheál And Eilish - skibbereen cover, 1990

"Skibbereen", also known as "Dear Old Skibbereen", "Farewell to Skibbereen", or "Revenge For Skibbereen", is an Irish folk song, in the form of a dialogue wherein a father tells his son about the Irish famine, being evicted from their home, and the need to flee as a result of the Young Ireland rebellion of 1848."

Edward II - miles away, 1991

"Some ideas lead you to wonder why nobody thought of them before, while you wonder why anybody thought of other ideas at all. Edward II's fusion of British folk dance and Morris music with reggae is definitely in the latter category, but the result is genuinely fun. Rees Wesson's accordion and Jon Moore's fiddle fit right in with Alton Zebby's slapped reggae percussion and the lively brass section. As with Edward II's other releases, there are some intermittently interesting straightforward reggae cuts on Wicked Men, but things only get really interesting when the band starts playing with folk influences. The last two cuts, the Morris dance tune "Shepherd's Hey" and the rocked-up folk lament "List for a Sailor," are the best tracks on the album, and both received limited airplay when the album was released."

Micheál And Eilish - danny boy cover, 1990

"Jane Ross of Limavady is credited with collecting the melody of "Londonderry Air" in the mid-19th century from a musician she encountered."

The Postmarks - slaughter on tenth avenue cover, 2008

"The array of songs the group has chosen to cover is quite eclectic and far reaching. Aside from the above noted artists, they hash out new versions of tunes by championed artists like David Bowie, The Ramones, The Ventures, Blondie, and Jesus and Mary Chain. Not a small feat. Not small at all."
