Desert Island downlaods

[Have a disco]

So ok Your left with your Ipod/MP3 player with only room for 10 tracks to play on it (I know its a very crap Ipod / MP3 player) the question is what 10 songs would you download to take with you, where ever you go. Should the worst happen and you get stuck on a Desert Island.........???? and why?????

[Corabar Steve]

Grieg - Hall of the mountain king ( from Pier Gynt), the best classical piece ever

Stray Cats - Rock this town, nice bit of slap bass

Ramones - California sun, feelgood factor

the D@mned - New Rose, the punk song, no contest.

the Psychedelic Furs - President Gas, the band that taught the Sisters all they know

Sisters of Mercy - Marian, the best Sisters track

Raging Slab - Pearly, my favourite track by my favourite band (& they share my love of guinness, I remembr the hangover from last time they played London)

David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust, genius

the Move -Blackberry way, under-rated genius

Pearl Jam - Rearview mirror, listen to it & you'll figure it out for yourself

[Have a disco]

and Why???? each track please lets keep to the original format LOL

[Corabar Steve]

Be patient I was editing my post.

Could everyone else make sure they post the reasons they like the tracks in question straight away, or be prepared to duck the dummy.

[Have a disco]

[Corabar Steve]

Obviously the question was too hard Badger

[Have a disco]

Ok heres mine even I have 10 songs I could take with me anywhere

1. The Buggles - Video Killed the radio star = was basically the end of my childhood song and the lyrics definitely stuck with todays music scene

2. Bonnie Tyler - Total Eclipse of the Heart = a song that stuck between me and my first love whom I have no Idea where she is now even though we have been married and divorced 15 years ago now

3. Howard Jones - New Song = the song that epitomised my entry into digital dance sounds the lyrics were right

4. Human League - (Keep feeling) Facination = college days all those girls phwoar

5. Nick Kershaw - Bogart = king of songwriters his lyrics and howards Jones above got me writing lyrics myself

6. Aha - Take on me = first real video I enjoyed from beginning to end and 2nd girl friend took to it

7. New Order - Blue Monday = First great song that no matter where I played everyone danced time and time again even got away with playing album and no one noticing LOL

8. Peaches n Herb - Reunited = fell in love with this when i was in care home all those years ago when I was a rebel. I now just rebel musically looking for the next top tunes on the dance floor

9. K-9 Corp - Dog Talk = sort of rounded up my opinion of women along time ago LOL No was my main hip-hop electro song and was just perfect

10. Duran Duran - The Chauffaur = will make me cry most times just for the pure brilliance of the track

Your forgiven prehaps you could get more in depth with your choices rather than I like them hardly personality revealing LOL

[Solitaire Events Ltd]

I was a casual, and hated anyone into anything 'alternative'!!

How things change...

[Have a disco]

[ian8limelight]

Your forgiven prehaps you could get more in depth with your choices rather than I like them hardly personality revealing LOL


I've posted them because I do LIKE THEM. There is no particular story behind them hence the initial reason I gave !

However, it did prompt me to start the 'DJ Influences' thread so thanks Badger for that.

[Have a disco]

I noticed very interesting thread to start

3.Bruce Springsteen - The River - He's the boss y'know!
4.Steely Dan - Rikki don't lose that number - quality, could have picked anything, love this tune
5.David Bowie - All The Madmen - on the edge early Bowie - brilliant, scary, sends chills down my spine,even after 35 years!
6.Roxy Music - Do the Strand - Huge production - lets boogie
7.Lynyrd Skynyrd - Freebird - live version from the OGWT- excellent air guitar time
8.Buzz****s - Orgasm Addict - toss up with New Rose and teenage kicks- narrowly scrapes home

[Corabar Steve]

Day after day
They send my friends away
To mansions cold and grey
To the far side of town
Where the thin men stalk the streets
While the sane stay underground



Genius!
