  Podcast   i-Tunes Playlist

Which song do you listen to when
you prepare breakfast?

Glen Campbell - Wichita Lineman. This track is perfect to make breakfast to because of its lack of bass (my ears don’t do bass in the morning anymore.)

you drive a car late at night?
The Doors - Riders On The Storm. It’s such a great tune to drive to.

you make love?
Gary Numan - Music For Chameleons. Because I’ve done it before with this track playing in the background.

you have to spend a night
in a spooky hotel?

Jilted John - Jilted John. Laughter is the only cure for being shit scared in a spooky hotel.

you rob a bank?
Heaven 17 - (We Don’t Need This) Fascist Groove Thing. Reminds me of being young and having loads of energy (I’m gonna need loads of energy to
rob a bank).

you are lovesick?
Depeche Mode – Freelove. This song has so many great emotional memories, it’s the only choice.
you relax on a beach?
Steely Dan - Peg. Summer beats!

you ride a bicycle?
Hawkwind - Silver Machine. I used to sing this out loud when I rode my bike to the shops... err strange kid!

you run naked through a cornfield?
Sly & The Family Stone - Runnin’ Away. Probably the best record to run away to .... ever!

you paint your appartement?
Pink Floyd - Dark Side Of The Moon. I’ve just finished loads of DIY and I was mostly listening to Pink Floyd.

you work in the garden?
The Kinks - Autumn Almanac. Just perfect lyrics to dig a garden to.

you surf the internet?
George Duke - Brazilian Love Affair. No matter how many times the computer crashes, it’s impossible to get stressed out if this tune’s playing.

you pretend to be married?
Mrs Miller - A Lovers Concerto. This record is so crazy, it’s the only choice.

you walk in the rain?
23 Skidoo - Last Words. I can’t think of a reason why, but I’m sure this would be a good choice.
