Squeeze best songs
Currently getting into the music of Squeeze. Many great songs but my favourite is probably Cool For Cats with its catchy Cockney rhyming slang. What do you think?

Tempted and Another Nail In My Heart but as you say, so many other great songs too, |

Let's take a moment to appreciate the innuendo in most of Squeeze's lyrics

Far too many to name. Be easier to list the bad songs (which are few and far between)
brilliant writers |

Fabulous song. The thing I love about Squeeze songs is that they really tell a story and you get visuals in your head (I do anyway) Labelled With Love is another good example "She unscrews the top of her new whisky bottle, shuffles around in her candlelit hovel"

One of my all-time favourite bands. So many favourite songs but just a few include:
Some Fantastic Place If It's Love Last Time Forever Nirvana This Summer Annie Get Your Gun Up The Junction I Can't Hold On Black Coffee In Bed Hourglass Loving You Tonight Another Nail In My Heart In Quintessence I Think I'm Go-Go Love's Crashing Waves (Difford & Tilbrook) Satisfied Points Of View There's No Tomorrow I've seen them live lots of times, as well as Glenn solo. Brilliant musicians and Glenn & Chris are amongst the greatest songwriters this country has ever produced, imo. |
