Michael J. Sheehy-Love Me

Growing up and going to school in Camden, London in the 90's nights were often spent in dingy smoky clubs and pubs pretending to be aloof and perfecting silly indie dance moves. It was after all the centre of the "Britpop" explosion (well in the media's eyes anyway) we would frequent gigs at the Bull & Gate in Kentish Town and watch elder sister's bands aspiring to be The Breeders. Michael was also a regular at the B & G, he would often play gigs and got together a band Dream City Film Club who had a brief dalliance with 'next big thing' status. In fact both Michael and Dream City Film Club released a couple of albums on Beggars Banquet but unfortunately they didn't amount to much. On listening to this again after a couple of years not hearing it the song is a little dated but I still really enjoy it and on a personal level I know who it's about and the story surrounding it so I suppose that helps to secure my affection. Love Me is reminiscent of the Tindersticks which will know if you read the blog regularly is a rather good thing. Download more of Michael's music at Epitonic and buy his stuff here
