Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Which raises the question, which is the best song on the list?

Monkey Gone to Heaven would be a strong contender for me, alongside, Whole of the Moon, Blue Monday and She Bangs the Drums

All good shouts. I’d probably include Ghost Town and When Doves Cry.

For some reason, despite them being my sort of thing, I’ve never listened much to The Pixies.
