Do more of these videos please? Your taste in music is Amazing .. With a capital A, my ipod should really be more like this, theres more to add to your anthem .. as of 2010 yh theres more ;)

[FranzLotus]

@keropie102 Haha cheers for the comments :D I'm planning on doing a 'Best of decade' video, actually in order so expect that in the near future

[elusivemusic]

You sir, are a legend for putting these videos together. Kudos.

[oxdogg007]

Oh and Bromheads.... sheffield!

[rnrdemon]

I agree with Doves' "Black & White Town", but actually there's another 100 or more songs that would make the list, also from artists you have chosen, and this could easily go on for a while. I'll take this as an inspiration to make my own compilations of that decade now, thanks!

[gogolplex74]

finally Foals!

but where are The Wombats?

[sk8terj888]

Tv on the radio is my favorite band. thank you sir for posting this video hah

[satustratoga]

Oh, and by the way, QOTSA isn't indie.-

[satustratoga]

You must be kidding. Nude? From In Rainbows and the only track worth for you... is Nude? Hell.-

[Galkian]

...and suddenly appears IDLEWILD with "You held the world in your arms", I discovered that song when I was 17 playing FIFA 2003!!!! :D THANKS A LOT FOR YOUR LIST, it improved my personal collection ^ ^
