iPod Roulette ~ May 2010

I decided I would finish off the month with a round of iPod Roulette.

1. In the Flesh? (Pink Floyd) - From Disc 1 of The Wall.

2. Car Wash (
Rose Royce) - What's the deal?? This one came up last time I posted an iPod Roulette! What are the chances out of more than 3400 songs!?

3. Whispers in the Dark (
Skillet) - I might have liked Christian music as a teenager if there had been more of this around back then.

4. I Wish it Would Rain (
Nanci Griffith) - I listened to this artist some early in her career, but not much in recent years.

5. The Cinema Show (
Genesis) - From Selling England by the Pound which is my favorite of their albums.

6. Back in the USSR (
Beatles) - From The White Album. Not one of my favorite albums of theirs or favorite songs.

7. Wild Mountain Honey (
Steve Miller Band) - From the Fly Like an Eagle album.

8. Bye Bye Love (
The Everly Brothers) - I have older siblings so there are lots of songs from the 50s and 60s I enjoy.

9. God of Wonders (
Mac Powell) - This is the version from the original City on a Hill album. One of the co-writers of this song is the son of a good friend of mine.

10. The Great Eatlon (
James Newton Howard) - From the soundtrack of Lady in the Water.

11. Tears in Heaven (
Eric Clapton) - The events that prompted this song broke my heart.

12. Tom Sawyer (
Rush) - A band I didn't really take an interest in until their "progressive rock" stage.

13. Milky White Way (
The Melody Boys Quartet) - This group performed at my church a couple of years ago and put on quite a good show. Not my usual type of music, but I still enjoyed it.

14. Little Light of Love (
R.X.R.A.) - From the soundtrack to The Fifth Element. Great soundtrack and great movie!!

15. Land of 1000 Dances (
Wilson Pickett) - From the Forrest Gump soundtrack. Another wonderful soundtrack! Hmmm...soundtracks. That could be a good "Favorite Five" topic. I'll have to think on it.

I haven't thought about "Wild Mountain Honey" in YEARS but I so love that song. I'm going to download it to my ipod!!!!!

And "Tom Sawyer" takes me back to high school. I used to listen to it while skiing!!!! (I had a Walkman with the cassette tapes. I cannot hear this song without immediately thinking of skiing!!!)

This was a fun post for me to read. Amazing how different songs can create such memories!

Well, I still don't have an Ipod, but my little MP3 player would be quoting the poetry of T. S. Eliot or Anais Nin reading from her diaries. You must have a fabulous list of songs on your Ipod. :-) Blessings!
