Yep, Imperial Bedroom is Numero Uno for me too.

I remember, it took a while for it to click, but when it did, I rated it as one of the best albums ever (by any artist).

Chappers, Gordon, Mr Radish et al, check out this mash-up.

I'm not a big fan of mash-ups, but it's amazing how these two great songs (by two of my favourite artists) form a symbiosis. A good one!
