Quiz #33 - Placebo "Taste in men"

In case you're wondering, I'm quite behaving myself in The Netherlands. Meaning none of the stuff I had was illegal. But then again I still have 2 weeks to go :))

In the meantime, here's the first quiz of this week. Guess the band and the song til next Monday (July 23) and you can score (at least) 20 points. 30 if you're really quick...

Good luck :P

UPDATED:

"Black Market Music" finds singer/guitarist Brian Molko in such moody lust that his strangled, androgynous wailing rivals anything the band has previously flashed to the world. Whether it's the dripping, slithery punk circle of songs like "Black Eyed" or the choir-boy enthusiasm of others like "Special K" (strangely echoing Midnight Oil's "Warakurna"), Placebo seem to have finally found that sweet wet spot between beauty and perversion. Even at its worst (the "Block Rockin' Beats"-sampling "Taste in Men"), past glories sometimes fail to be repeated with at least grand, postcoital contentment. Because it's hard to hate an album with such fascinating softer touches.

Placebo
Taste In Men

Directed by Barbara McDonogh
And I believe the first notes of the song are a tribute to Pink Floyd's Let There Be More Light.
