He don't even break the branches where he's gone

I felt like posting some filler, so here is a Friday Random Ten.

  1. The Shins, "Mine's Not A High Horse"
  2. New Order, "Who's Joe?"
  3. Orange Juice, "Falling And Laughing"
  4. Sleater-Kinney, "Hot Rock"
  5. The Boy Least Likely To, "My Tiger My Heart"
  6. The New Pornographers, "Breakin' The Law"
  7. Cat Power, "Werewolf"
  8. Belle & Sebastian, "Meat And Potatoes"
  9. Warren Zevon, "Numb As A Statue"
  10. Dungen, "Sluta Följa Efter"

Number 11 was the "Legend of Pai Mei" dialogue from the Kill Bill, vol. 2 soundtrack. My iPod seems to like Orange Juice and Dungen more than I do, since these bands come up on shuffle more often than they really should. The best song in this list is definitely the Cat Power.

I remain a sucker for stuff like this. Here's what my iPod produced:

1. Sweet Sensation, "Hooked on You"
2. Huey Lewis & The News, "Couple Days Off"
3. "Fantasia on Greensleeves"
4. London Symphony Orchestra playing Sting, "Invisible Sun"
5. Candy Dulfer, "Donja"

Interjection: You must listen to her song "Lily Was Here" if you have never done so!

6. MC Hawking, "Crazy as F#@K"
7. Bob Seger, "Old Time Rock & Roll"
8. Toad the Wet Sprocket, "Stupid"
9. Icehouse, "The Kingdom"
10. CoCo Lee, "A Love Before Time (English)"


Best song of the group: It's a close call between Huey Lewis and Seger. Both songs evoke similar feelings. Those two far outshine the others here.
