FRIDAY RANDOM TEN - EDBD EDITION

The iPod d’Elisson
The iPod d’Elisson.

EDBD, of course, being an abbreviation for Elder Daughter’s Birth Day. Which it is, today. And, as we all know, the Friday Random Ten is my semi-regular post comprising a selection of ten songs, belched out at random by my Little White Choon Box, AKA the iPod d’Elisson pictured above.

Given that today marks thirty-three years of life on Planet Earth for Elder Daughter - as well as thirty-three years of Daddyhood for me - it’s a rather special occasion, the sort that should be celebrated with music.  So - what has the White Box coughed up for us today?
  1. Horn - Phish

  2. Mozart - Requiem in D Minor - Herbert von Karajan

  3. Roll Right Stones - Traffic

  4. First There Is a Mountain - Donovan

    Man, they just don’t write lyrics like this anymore.

    The lock upon my garden gate’s a snail, that’s what it is.
    The lock upon my garden gate’s a snail, that’s what it is.

    First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is.
    First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is.

    The caterpillar sheds his skin to find a butterfly within.
    Caterpillar sheds his skin to find a butterfly within.

    First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is.
    First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain.

    Oh Juanita
    Oh Juanita
    Oh Juanita, I call your name.
    Oh, the snow will be a blinding sight to see as it lies on yonder hillside.

    The lock upon my garden gate’s a snail, that’s what it is.
    The lock upon my garden gate’s a snail, that’s what it is.

    Caterpillar sheds his skin to find a butterfly within.
    Caterpillar sheds his skin to find a butterfly within.

    Ah, my-my.

    First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is.
    First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is.
    First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is.
    First there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is.
    First there is a mountain

  5. Please Please Me - The Beatles

  6. Pirelli’s Death - Stephen Sondheim, Sweeney Todd

  7. Perfumed Lies - The Judybats
