It's Fun Tuesday. Here's some of the shizzle that's been keeping me warm and dry indoors today...From the retro new Futureheads' video to the weird and wonderful JLS inspired offering from Hot Chip, KIGH romcom rock n roll, shriekingly ace Strange News From Another Star and Lostprophet's take on cops and robbers.
Strange News From Another Star - Oh My God They've Given Me The Suburbs
Hope they gave your eyes and ears the same rainy day Tuesday cwtch as they gave me!

A Hug in A Headphone
Well last week was slightly richer in the singles stakes, what with (now not-so) brand spanking new shiz from Courteeners, Hot Chip and Marina and the Diamonds. But here goes.
Singles you probably don't own yet, but definitely should:
Calvin Harris - You Used To Hold Me (nu-disco goodness from the nu-disco Duke)
Taylor Swift - Today Was A Fairytale (like a shot-size romcom)
Helping Haiti - Everybody Hurts (albeit a predictable choice of song, it's for a better than good cause so don't be so cheap!)
John Q Public - Voices Of Refusal EP (donate what you want for this EP and ALL proceeds will go straight to the Haiti Relief Fund).
If you buy nothing else this week or could buy an album but that would mean eating value beans, then embrace the vaule beans.
Albums you need in your life today:
Massive Attack - Heligoland (They're supermassive and they're back. Nuff said.)
OK so I know they were released last week BUT Hot Chip have a One Life Stand with Your name on it and Peter Andre has, ermmm, no strings attached love waiting to embrace your ears. They're not shy and neither should you be.
Have fun with your iPods this week!

The guys over at Stereogum have compiled one hell of must-have albums list. They've not given a meek 5, 10 or even 25 but a flabbergasting 69 indie records that you simply must have by this time next year. Oh yeah, 2010 is gonna be good!

Highlights for me include Vampire Weekend's Contra, The Avalanches' follow up to 2000's Since I Met You, MGMT with Congratulations and Los Campesinos! tell us Romance is boring. Other rightfully anticipated indie gems will be winging there way to our iTunes from Fleet Foxes, The National, Hot Chip, Arcade Fire, Of Montreal, Drive By Truckers (trust me on this one) and The Walkmen.
January 12th. You have a date at HMV with Vampire Weekend. Don't forget.
