I'm bored at work, thought I'd create a new list.

well, seems like I cloned without knowing you once had such a list going on... thankfully we don't get punished for "uncredited cloning" or whatever... The Housemartins are one of the 80's most unjustly overlooked bands... I am listening to Beautiful South in the office today, now that's what I call a funny coincidence!!!

Most people don't know much about the Housemartins, but they were always one of my favourites. It turns out Norman Cook used to live just down the street from where I live now (in Didsbury, Manchester). Of course, he doesn't live there now, so it's not really all that cool. Oh, well. Glad to see someone else likes this band! I was starting to think no one really listened to them.
