As with all things social media, sometimes you can’t escape the memes. As this one. I was asked about songs which played a major role in my life. It also says not to think too much, so I chose for that part & went for the experience. All these are important. Some for obscure reasons, some in different versions, but all, none the less, important.
Music was my first love & it will be my last. Fuck 10 songs, even this list of unknown length only touches some little years, nothing near the conclusive list.
Alanis Morisette – Ironic
Meat Loaf – bat out of hell
Police – Roxane
Phil Collins – the roof is leaking
The Police – 7 days
Maria Carey – emotions
Tori Amos – Smells like teen spirit
Counting Cross – Round Here
Paul Weller – You do something to me
Guns n Roses – November rain
David Bowie – Little Wonders
ELO – Mr blue sky
Screaming Jay Hawkins – I put a spell on you
Billy Joel – Uptown Girl
Wham! – Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go
Rene Froger – Een eigen huis
Wim Sonneveld – Het Dorp
Reef – place your hands
Oasis – Champaign Supernova
Marc Cohn – Walking In Memphis
Tracy Chapman – Fast Car
Leonard Cohen – Take this waltz
Aznavour – La Boheme
Being concise is sometimes an important excercise. In this however, just a frustrating waste of otherwise pure emotion. I don’t even know how much there are. Let me go make a youtube playlist!
Now, Since I went through that intense process of making The List (a list), I require you to listen to it’s entirety, it’s current 22 tracks of Life. This playlist will grow.
Send it to your chromecasts!!
