The Perfect Playlist (for you)

[Robot Chicken Koko]

Make a playlist and put it here that has the music that makes you groove, gets your toes wiggling, makes your shoulders 'should,' your fingers 'fing,' or whatever. Make a playlist for yourself. I also promise to listen to all the playlists that I hope you all give me. I hope you like mine. I call it The Bark Ball.

I'm going to make an effort to include driving music and a couple funk songs.

1.) "Pigs" by Pink Floyd
2.) "We Don't Stop" by Michael Franti & The Spearheads
3.) "Turn To Stone" by ELO
4.) "Watchin' the Wheels" by Matisyahu
5.) "Sunshine Superman" by Donovan
6.) "My Stoney Baby" by 311
7.) "Got To Get You Into My Life" by Earth, Wind & Fire
8.) "Good Vibrations" by The Beach Boys
9.) "The Cowboy Song" by Faith No More
10.) "Teakwood Betz" by Perpetual Groove
11.) "Godzilla" by Blue Oyster Cult
12.) "Work That We Do" by Sublime
13.) "Smoke Some Weed" by Ice Cube
14.) "Papa Was A Rolling Stone" by The Temptations
15.) "Kielbasa" by Tenacious D

Nice! That's tremendous - suits the song much better than the band version, I think.

1.Father Lucifer - Tori Amos
2.Susan's House - The Eels
3.Moonchild - Chris Cornell
4.Without you I'm Nothing - Placebo & David Bowie
5.Wooden Jesus - Temple of the Dog

12.Where is Jack the Ripper? - Grooverider

Good stuff, thanks for keeping my thread alive. Unfortunately I suck. I haven't listened to anyone's playlist. Aurelyn, yours would be especially hard for me to put together because I don't have any of your music, which means I'd have to do the whole illegal downloading thing. Oh well, I'll still hold true to my promise everyone!

You're the only person except for myself I know who would have Alizee, The Pet Shop Boys, Sèzen Aksu and David Bowie on one playlist.

Actually, those exact songs (Su Saniye, It's a Sin, Moi Lolita and Ashes to Ashes) are on my current selection of songs I'm listening to...


It's almost scary there is another such person out there...
