Entertainment For Lively Minds
Out of left field...

was watching the Quo at Glastonbury tonight and wished they would play Living On An Island, really nice, mellow Summer song. then I thought what other records are really unrepresentative of their owners, like Love is like Oxygen by Sweet, and She's a Rainbow by the R. Stones and that one by Velvet Underground about Sticking like glue...

Oo gosh..
Much as I love Blue Öyster Cult, you have to say that Don't Fear The Reaper was, and is, entirely unrepresentative of all their other output. As anyone who has purchased any of their albums has found.
And I also think of No Doubt. Don't Think was a great single. But everything else they've done.. just awful.
Although
I remember buying Mirrors aeons ago, and everyone agreeing it was quite 'poppy', even the NME were only a bit sniffy about it
Slade
How Does It Feel - even Noel Gallagher's admiration can't put me off it. Not actually better than Cum On Feel The Noize, mind, just different.
Ah Living On An Island
What an awful Song. The Quo's answer to "Waiting for My Man". The other slow one "Rock n Roll" is worse mind.
Teh Quo
Have a few of these - "In the Army Now" and "Marguerita Time" both spring to mind.
Dexys do Quo
Well the thing with Marguerita Time (full disclosure: I bought it on vinyl when I was 10) is that it depends who is singing it. I discovered this earlier this year, it's Marguerita Time, by Dexys Midnight Runners...

There's a pattern emerging
Those two are both ****e Too.
