I'm not belittling the Beatles; I'm simply glorifying kazoos.

Please don't mention bongos. Bongos make me have to consider that there is something more pleasing to the ears than Embrace. This scares me very much.
The answer: Embrace - Save Me. It's like a double-whamey aural-orgasm.

'Save Me' is a favourite of mine. As are 'You're Not Alone', 'My Weakness Is None Of Your Business', 'Looking As You Are', 'Make It Last' and 'I Wouldn't Wanna Happen To You'.
Actually, it would be quicker to list the songs I don't like:
'Three Is The Magic Number'. I cringe at this. Hell, I even cringed whilst typing this!

How would you even know? Have you listened to them yet? They make the
best
simple
NOISE
ever.

No. No dancy stuff. But they regularly make you quite annoyed that you're confined to a body. They're phenomenal, in a wonderfully simple, easy way (but without all this hideous droning minimalism that's all too common). They write simple words (with a tendancy to write choruses that simply repeat one line, but it's fantastic) to make huge points, and play simple music to make AWESOME songs. They are the absolute purest form expressing ideas through sound. And they have so much of "it", whatever "it" may be; there are words, sung by a voice, and a guitar line, and a bass line, and a piano line, and some drums, and none of that's all that amazing, but then they have all of this "it". And it makes them pretty painful to listen to sometimes. Seriously, it actually hurts me to listen to them live because they're so good. But for some reason I still do, whenever I can. And it's all so together. And Richard McNamara plays the BEST guitar solos EVER. And they're not that complicated, and they don't sound that far-fetched, but they express PERFECTLY everything that the song is about.
And they also write some crap, too. Mainly because Danny McNamara likes to make people cry, which he can't do, at all. Doesn't mean their balads are bad; but the self-absorbed ones are better than the "Ooh isn't this so sad for everyone". Luckily he doesn't try it too often though.

Screw all of this trying to explain the aiming point of all music through words. When are you going back to Manchester? Send me your address.

Oooh I missed a bit. Some of their songs are nothing but happiness. Without the depressingness of most poppy-happy-crap. They're just irrisistabily happy, just accept stuff as it is, fun, smile-inducing songs.

P.S. Efforts to annoy were pitiful! You know you could have done that with one word!
