Leafing through the new Q, Tori Amos picks the fab-tastic Sleeper track "Best of Luck Mr Gorsky" from "The It Girl" as one of her top tracks that 'men should listen to'.

Go Tori!

Sleeper man... I say they reform and become the surprise headliner for Glasto now that Kylie is out.

Imagine the anticipation... who will the surprise band be?... and then TO EVERYONE'S SURPRISE the chords to Sale of the Century belt out and here comes Louise!!!

Yay!

And Glastonbury is united as a hailstorm of piss-filled scrumpy bottles form a 6 feet deep pile on the stage.

Elvis Costello was a huge Sleeper fan back in the day. That fucker made me copy "What Do I Do Now?"

Does one of Costello's backing band post here?

Man, the paper headlines would be more like:

SLEEPER HIT OF THE FESTIVAL IS SLEEPER

FANS CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THAT NOSTALGIC, BUT TIMELESS, BRITPOP

LOUISE WIENER CAN DO US ANYTIME

THE IT GIRL STILL HAS IT

etc etc

Everyone loves Sleeper - and it paved the way to an Echobelly reunion all would be right with the world.
