I saw this on Dan’s site, and I thought I’d give it a go. Dan is a guy that I saw at orientation both in Tokyo and Yashiro – he was actually one of Antoine’s roommates at Yashiro. His entries are a lot more exciting than mine, and certainly less verbose. I think he lives in northern Hyogo, so our paths appear to cross here and there, but I haven’t seen him out there yet.
Anyway, the idea is to fire up your music player and write down the first twenty random songs that come up – no skipping the embarrassing ones. Here’s my list:
1. Creedence Clearwater Revival – Bad Moon Rising
2. Soil – Road To Ruin
3. Nirvana – Been A Son
4. The Cult – Spanish Gold
5. Massive Attack – Hymn Of The Big Wheel
6. The Beatles – While My Guitar Gently Weeps
7. John Coltrane – Giant Steps
8. John Mayall and The Bluesbreakers – I Don’t Mind
9. Corrosion Of Conformity – Deliverance
10. Soul Coughing – 16 Horses
11. Aerosmith – Back In The Saddle
12. Grim Fandango Soundtrack – Scrimshaw
13. Blue Man Group – Utne Wire Man
14. Al Green – Let’s Get Married
15. ESPN Jock Jam – Tootsie Roll
16. Star Wars Soundtrack – The Last Battle
17. Isaac Hayes – Run Fay Run
18. Moby – Oil 1
19. Deadlights – Sweet Oblivion
20. Incubus – Idiot Box
I was surprised at some that came up. I have the whole Led Zeppelin catalog here, and nothing showed up. I was a little embarrassed about ESPN Jock Jam – where did that come from? Anyway, an interesting experiment.
