Repetitive, moi?

I love lists.  These random playlists serve no purpose other than to remind me of music that’s buried away in my iTunes, waiting to be rediscovered.  One song leads to another; one band creates a ripple effect leading to another needing to be heard again.

I was out on the longboard this time, on a beautiful sunny afternoon.  I didn’t have long, however, before other commitments would tear me away.  Here are a few songs chosen at random by my iPod as the skate soundtrack that day.

1. King Crimson – “Happy With What You Have to be Happy With”
2. Senseless Things – “Watching the Pictures Go”
3. Neck – “The Star of the County Down”
4. Soul Asylum – “String of Pearls”
5. Johnny Dowd – “True Love”
6. Sonic Youth – “Creme Brulee”
7. Siouxsie & The Banshees – “Christine”
8. Siouxsie & The Banshees – “Peek-a-Boo”
9. Nuclear Assault – “Live, Suffer, Die”
10. Rolling Stones – “19th Nervous Breakdown”
11. Shirley Bassey – “Reach for the Stars”
12. Jimmy Eat World – “Cautioners”

Well, two different Siouxsie and the Banshees tracks, from different albums, one after the other.  Most strange.  Great songs, though.

I remember really enjoying the Stones track; the Shirley Bassey number was a bit out of the blue.  But then, random is what this game’s all about.

Till next time, groovers!
