Another Day #4: Toothache Day

Today is Toothache Day. I don't make these things up, you can google it if you don't believe me.

Here's an early classic from The Charlies...

The Charlatans - Toothache

Of a similar vintage, we find this...

Ned's Atomic Dustbin - Twenty Three Hour Toothache

Next, a fairy tale tune written by the wonderful Stephin Merritt of The Magnetic Fields... apparently it's from a movie soundtrack. The cast includes Blair Brown, Mia Maestro, Qian Yi, Mary Lou Rosato and 

Fiona Shaw... but the interweb doesn't appear to be able to tell me which of them are singing here.

Stephin Merritt - Auntie Toothache

Here's an atmospheric tune from Austin-based Americana band RF Shannon, led by songwriter Shane Renfro...

RF Shannon - Tooth Ache

Here's the wonderful Ezra Furman, always worth a listen...

Ezra Furman - My Teeth Hurt

And you can never go wrong with mid-90s Green Day either...

Green Day - Pulling Teeth 

Here's the weirdest thing you'll hear today. I picked this up in a charity shop. It wasn't a keeper, but I sold the CD on the bay of E for a tidy profit, so this band clearly has its fans...

Lard - Can God Fill Teeth?

(Nothing to do with Marc Riley, as far as I can tell.)

Possibly not about tooth ache, but I will take any excuse to play The Felice Brothers...

The Felice Brothers - Teeth In The Tabloids

Finally, here's a lovely little tune by LA singer-songwriter Sam Valdez...
