5. Barbra StreisandGuilty
I came to it because I was very like, "I’m gay but I do not like Barbra Streisand. I don’t own a Barbra Streisand album", then I went to an Oxfam gig – and it was Hot Chip actually – at their really good store in Dalston. Anyway I was a bit drunk afterwards and picked it up and thought: "That will be good for a laugh." I took it home and it didn’t stop being played for about two years. It was the record that, whenever I came back with friends, would be put on, and I think I won a few people over to it. And because I bought it on vinyl second-hand, it would always have this one track where it skips and I’d always have to run and change the record. Then I downloaded it when I bought it on CD and now it doesn’t skip, I really hate it!
