“Underwear” by Pulp
From the album Different Class (1995)
“Underwear” by Pulp appears on 1 radio countdown from 1 station in 1995. It was first released in 1995 on the album Different Class. Its best result is #31 on the John Peel's Festive Fifty of 1995. In the combined RockLists rankings it is the #239 alternative song of 1995.
"Underwear" sits on Different Class, the fifth Pulp album, which Island Records put out in 1995. The words are Jarvis Cocker's, and the music is split five ways, between Cocker, Nick Banks, Candida Doyle, Steve Mackey and Russell Senior. Chris Thomas produced it, with David Nicholas engineering and Pete Lewis assisting.
It wasn't one of the record's four UK top-ten singles, a run that went to "Common People", "Sorted for E's & Wizz", "Disco 2000" and "Something Changed", but it rides on an album that entered the British chart at number one, took the 1996 Mercury Music Prize and still stands among the landmarks of Britpop; NME placed it sixth on its 2013 list of the 500 greatest albums ever made.
