We Are Family [Themes 1]



Something a wee bit different now. Trawling through the net today I downloaded a set of songs on a particular theme. Some are songs I already own, others I've never heard in my life before. It started off as 10 songs on each theme but soon expanded as I found more and more songs (and more themes). I haven't heard the outcome yet, I'm going to post it on here before I even listen to it myself. It could turn out amazing or it could be a disaster, probably the latter. Theme 1 is 'family'. Most of the songs on this one are well known to me (some other ones which I'll post later are a bit more obscure). So here we go 14 tracks to enjoy, or maybe not.

01 Brian Eno - Third Uncle

02 Camper Van Beethoven - We Saw Jerry's Daughter

03 Pavement - Father to a Sister of Thought

04 White Rabbits - Navy Wives

05 Rilo Kiley - A Better Son-Daughter

This Sporting Life!!!

When it's a quiet day at work we often do quizzes among st the department staff usually on the theme of music or films. Quite often you will be sitting minding your own business when someone will challenge you to name 10 songs with blue in the title or 10 songs with a mode of transport in the title. Taking it a step further I'll be doing a regular (ish) theme day on here and this is the first in the series. As it's nearly the weekend and a lot of people will be looking forward to a few days of sport here is 10 songs with a sporting theme in the title.

  1. Kraftwerk - Tour de France [Francois K Remix]
  2. Stereolab - Ping Pong
  3. The Fall - Athlete Cured
  4. Les savy Fav - The Equestrian
  5. Let's Wrestle - Let's Wrestle
  6. Camper Van Beethoven - Take The Skinheads Bowling
  7. The Pastels - Speedway Star
  8. Franz Ferdinand - Darts Of Pleasure [Home Demo]
