FRIDAY RANDOM TEN - FESTIVUS EDITION

It has been four years since Festivus - the holiday for the rest of us! - last fell on a Friday. And since it is Friday, in addition to the traditional rituals of Festivus (the bare aluminum Festivus Pole, the ceremonial Airing of Grievances, followed by Feats of Strength and a recounting of Festivus Miracles), we can resurrect another old tradition: the Friday Random Ten.

That’s where I post a list of ten Choons spewed at random from the iPod d’Elisson. It’s been a while - with luck, the old iPod will still be functional. Let’s just go and see, shall we?

1. Can’t Buy Me Love - The Beatles
   
   
2. Brown Shoes Don’t Make It - The Mothers of Invention
   
   The first Mothers/Zappa song I ever listened to.
   
   
3. Someone In Your Garden - Philip Glass, Notes on a Scandal
   
   
4. Moy Motocikl (live) - Leningrad
   
   
5. The Other Side of Summer - Elvis Costello
   
   
6. Smoke - Ben Folds Five
   
   
7. Fair Play - Van Morrison
   
   
8. The Bunker - Beirut
   
   
9. Uf Dem Anger - Floret Silva Nobilis - Christian Thielemann: Orff, Carmina Burana

It’s Friday. What are you listening to?
