Friday Random Ten--The Raincoats Stole My Sunshine Edition

You know the drill. You know the woman. Wish her happy birthday.

1. "Powder Blue"--Ween
2. "QMart"--808 State
3. "Jungle Rock"--The Chimes of Freedom
4. "'Til the Blood Ran"--Dos
5. "I Don't Want to Hear It Anymore"--Dusty Springfield
6. "The Future"--Leonard Cohen
7. "Fairytale in the Supermarket"--The Raincoats
8. "Rudie Can't Fail"--The Clash
9. "Da Doo Ron Ron"--The Crystals
10. "Stealing Hubcaps"--Billy Ledbetter

Most of this music is sort of gloomy, which does fit our rainy weather today. I have friends visiting from D.C. this weekend and I was hoping that it would be a warm Texas February, like high of 75, for their visit. You know, if only to convince them to move back.

  2. Well, since I have the mix you gave me in the library I draw on for the random ten, the odds have gone up. ;)

    But I know what you mean--out of these random ten you have here, I have four of those songs on MP3 or on old-fashioned cds.
