Will it make my iPod?

[bospress.net]

Fairytale of New York and A Pair of Brown Eyes are both excellent choices, but if I were to choose a Pogues song it would have to be The Old Main Drag (which is also the first Pogues song that I ever heard).

What about "Waltzing Matilda" or is that too sappy?

[justine]

[Short Bus]

Thanks again

Don't forget this one, quoted by Bukowski himself several times:

LOL - I wonder if Buk would have liked the music. It's certainly something else! At least it's not our opera friend singing...:D

Okay, so we're onto week two?

Well this week the song I would put on Jimmy Snerp's mp3 is:

Listen to the Music by The Doobie Brothers

[This video is unavailable.]

 

[hoochmonkey9]

As K-BILLY's Super Sounds of the 70's Weekend just keeps on truckin'...

 

[chronic]

My pick for the week: Talking Heads - This Must Be The Place

 

[cirerita]

It's been raining a week in a row -very unusual here- so we need some upbeat music. Let me think. Hmm, what about Nick Drake's Pink Moon? :D

 

[Kingcargo.jb]

My suggestion: ANY version of Dark Star by the Grateful Dead from the great year of 1973.

 

[number6horse]

"Avenues" by Ryan Adams

 

[harrystuped]

aaaaarrrg
I thought I was posting for week one ( did not knew the rules, )
so I will have to wait to week 3?

 

[Father Luke]

Go ahead. We won't tell.

 

[Purple Stickpin]

Well, in keeping with my 1974 theme, go with Dylan - "Idiot Wind" from Blood on the Tracks for week #2.

 

[harrystuped]

talking heads - nothing but flowers (for the second week)

 

[Gerard K H Love]

1974 the start of a very bad marriage gone awry, and this hit song:




P.S. I only put that there because of 1974- a very bad year.

 

[Father Luke]

J. Geils Band - Whammer Jammer

 

[Purple Stickpin]

1974 the start of a very bad marriage gone awry...

You might consider listening to my suggestion, then. Dylan absolutely spitting and hurling poetic venom at his estranged wife (perhaps ex-wife at that point). And finally, being introspective about it at the end.

 

[EliseEffect]

The Weakerthans-Aside

 

[Digney in Burnaby]

I like "Dark Hills" by P:ano. From the "Burquitlam" area. (Burnaby-Coquitlam.) Lots of stupid contractions around here: Poco, Como, Ioco.

The link to the song:
http://www.myspace.com/darkhills

 

[Purple Stickpin]

My suggestion: ANY version of Dark Star by the Grateful Dead from the great year of 1973.

And you can search them here, listed from most recent to oldest, so hit next at the bottom to search earlier in 1973. Hint: 10/25/73 is a good one, but I didn't say that...;)

[hoochmonkey9]

[james]

week two submission: anything by elliott smith, but if i have to choose one, well...

waltz #2(xo) off of the album xo.

 

[strangegirl]

Okay I will have to go with The Beatles - Come Together.

 

[1fsh2fsh]

well, if I knew how to use one of those ipod things, it would have to be. Dead can Dance with Lis Fraiser (cocteau Twins) Persian Teardrop...
