#86 The House Of Love - Feel
This is as indispensable as the La’s ‘There She Goes’. Only God knows how it has slipped beneath the radar. Everything is in the right place, the chiming guitars are ubiquitous, Guy Chadwick’s voice is velvet soft and the lyrics are lovelorn enough to have 2005’s sorry number one balladeer back in the trenches. But, that was to be the House Of Love’s lot, no matter how many pristine classics they produced the world just shrugged its shoulders and tuned into Right Said Fred. Perhaps the music was just too sexy for the time, and maybe an army of bloggers could have made a difference by extolling its virtues. If this had been the case then daytime radio could rightly be awash with ‘The Girl With The Loneliest Eyes’, ‘Crush Me’, ‘Shake & Crawl’ and ‘The Beatles & The Stones’. The House of Love have just reformed so perhaps faith could yet shine on them. KD
