This week's FRT comes to you Straight Outta JP Center, from the Sweet Finnish bakery (owned by people from Finland, not poor spellers), and the song pool is roughly half as large as normal, owing to the fact that I'm using Helen's laptop and Helen is uh, more selective in filling out her itunes library than I am.
So: The first 10 songs to come up on shuffle mode are:
01 - Luxury Liner - Emmylou Harris Hot beat Emmylou!
02 - Do You Want to Know a Secret - The Beatles Cool-as-a-colada Latin-y beat from Ringo.
03 - Black Wind Blowing - Billy Bragg Lyrics by Woody Guthrie.
04 - Shine on You Crazy Diamond (Parts VI - IX) - Pink Floyd Don't you just love the transition from Part VII to Part VIII? Almost as good as the transition from Part III to Part IV.
05 - Job of Journeywork - The Chieftains Music to burn peat by.
06 - My Sharona - The Knack Ask me to show you the 1988 video of me performing this song on my Mom's Yamaha keyboard. Classy lyrics.
07 - We Want a Rock - They Might Be Giants "Everybody wants a rock to wind a piece of string around." I know I do. An accordion-soaked fave from John and John.
08 - Keep on the Sunny Side - The Whites From the "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" soundtrack.
09 - Big Rock Candy Mountains - Harry McClintock Another "O Brother" song. "There's a lake of stew, and whiskey too, you can paddle all around 'em in a big canoe!" I'm there!
10 - Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! - ABBA One of the London Symphony Orchestra's finest moments.
