Grinderman performing “Worm Tamer” live on Jools Holland. If this doesn’t put some swagger in your step, I don’t know what will.

Grinderman performing “Palaces of Montezuma” on Later with Jools Holland.
It’s perverse that Grinderman delivers what I consider to be one of the most romantic songs I’ve enjoyed in recent memory, but these lyrics are quite touching, in their own way:
The Epic of Gilgamesh
A pretty little black A-line dress
I give to you
The spinal cord of JFK
Wrapped in Marilyn Monroe’s negligee
I give to you
I want nothing in return
Just the softest little breathless word
I ask of you
A word contained in a grain of sand
That can barely walk can’t even stand
I ask of you

The Unthanks performing “Here’s the Tender Coming” on Jools Holland.
I am smitten by these tangle-haired ladyfolk lasses!
