I-pod shuffle
« on: November 08, 2013, 05:19:52 AM »
This usually brings up some interesting results.

Here are the rules:

Put your I-pod (or whatever other gizmo) on shuffle and write down the first 10 songs that come up.

No cheating!

Mine could have been a whole lot worse:

Under the gun - The Sisters of Mercy
I'll work for your love - Bruce Springsteen
El Dorado - Manu Chao
Walk - Blind Melon
Friendly society - The Phoenix Foundation
Fill me with apples - The Sleepy Jackson
Fame - David Bowie
Melts my heart - Marty Willson-Piper
New Gold Dream - Simple Minds
Snelsmore Wood - New Model Army

1. Monsters -- Sons & Daughters
2. Collapsing New People -- Fad Gadget
3. Mexico City -- Jolie Holland
4. In the Arms of Sleep -- Smashing Pumpkins
5. Hollow Man -- REM
6. The Hazards of Love 2 (Wager All) -- the Decemberists
7. Andy Warhol -- David Bowie
8. If Silence Means That Much to You -- Emma Pollock (obviously came up on random since the lads are in Scotland!)
9. Mind Terrorist -- Public Enemy
10. Rent Strike -- Groove Collective w/Bernie Worrell
