Post-Valentine's Random 10+
Feb. 15th, 2008 08:54 pmI slept late, ran a bunch of errands, got the kind of haircut one would expect for $5 at a school, with interpersonal drama added at no extra charge. Will go see Jumper Sunday.
1) The Killing Jar, Siouxsie & The Banshees
2) A taste Of Honey, Stef Meeder Grand Hammond Medley
3) Don't Renege On Our Love, Richard & Linda Thompson
4) Bongo Avenger, Eric & Ryan Kilkenny
5) Cliffs of Dover, Eric Johnson
6) Do It Again, Steely Dan
7) Mister Kingdom, ELO
8) Motion Picture, Asthmaboy
9) Season Of The Witch, Al Kooper, Mike Bloomfield, Stephen Stills
10) Dead Horse, Robin Holcomb
And then there was more . . .
11) The Sidewinder Sleeps Tonite, R.E.M.
12) One After 909, The Beatles
13) T-Bone, Neil Young & Crazy Horse
So if you want the best collection of songs about love ever, I recommend without reservation 69 Love Songs, by The Magnetic Fields. From the heights to the depths, in more musical styles than you can shake a stick at (if that's your idea of a good time), Stephen Merritt delivers the goods. And the man can write. Anyone who can rhyme "Louvre," "manoeuvre" and "Hoovre (up the gold dust)" is a genius, period.
