Airhead - Counting Sheep CDS


I put it to you that there are fewer bands more indie than Airhead. They had the one reasonably big hit, which isn't this, but I've always had a soft spot for them, as their brief poke up into the limelight coincided with some happy times for me.

This track is pretty good, if not quite up to 'Funny How', and track 2 is very much the Airhead formula, if a little more laid back. Number 3 is good, I can see how it maybe didn't quite fit in with their album, but I like it.

Never much of a fan of the added "demo version" on CD singles, but when it's track 4 of 4 I guess it's excusable. If you're a massive Airhead fan, this might be the tune which completes your life.

1. Counting Sheep
2. Take My Train
3. Keep The Apple
4. Counting Sheep (Demo)

1990s are here.

  1. Enjoying this track, which was completely unknown in the USA at the time, as far as I can tell. Great to hear something truly 90s-indie that's totally new to me.

    1. Hey. Thanks so much for your comment, and I'm really pleased that you enjoyed the track.

      It's worth searching out "Funny How", which was their big single from this album, if you can find it.
