MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
...just had a bit of random playlist magic.
Shall we say two per person?
Any genre, for any occasion.
Mine would be:
Radiohead - Reckoner
Portishead - Roads
Beach Boys ‘God Only Knows'
Sandy Denny ‘Who Knows Where The Time Goes'
won't get much better than those
Oh, and Sandy wrote hers at fourteen...
Orange 9mm - Dead in the Water
Helmet - Smart
You win my eternal gratitude if you've actually heard of these songs or artists.
The Congos - Solid foundation.
XTC - Making plans for nigel.
The Mamas and the Papas- California Dreamin'
Refused- New Noise
Audiophile, I remember Helmet, though I only had Betty.
The Undertones - Teenage Kicks
New Model Army - Green & Grey
I love rock and roll - Joan Jett and the blackhearts.
Stop - Jamelia
Audiophile - Biscuits for smut 🙂
Black Sabbath - NIB
B52s -Rock lobster

(California Dreamin' was the first song which came to mind but Northwind had already picked it)
Can I reserve the right to come back tomorrow and choose two completely different songs, which may involve Motorhead and AC/DC. Music is such a mood dependent thing, I struggle to understand how people can have one favourite song which they stick to forever - for me it really depends on when you ask the question and how I am feeling at that particular time.
Changes all the time. Couldn't possibly name one or two
Sonic Youth - Teenage Riot
That would be one of mine.
Can't think of the other few hundred though....

So much good music in this thread.
At the moment it's
Beach Boys - Sloop John B
Midlake - Young Bride
I hope oldfart doesnt post his taste in music is crap! http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/in-the-mood-for-a-song-to-give-you-goose-bumps 😉
The KLF - Last train to Transcentral
Nina Simone - Feeling Good
And hundreds of others based on mood time of day and location. (some tracks never sound right in the car for example)
For absolute perfect perfection... Get on the train to Fort William out of Glasgow, and sit on the right of the train. At any point after Bridge of Orchy, but ideally somewhere on Rannoch Moor, play Mogwai Fear Satan.
packing blankets- Eels
Kev
Ah, from listening to the radio, 2 more that I don't think have been mentioned:
Roscoe - Midlake.
Ghost Writer - RJD2
Easy peasy this one
God Only Knows - The Beach Boys
Next...
May You Never - John Martyn
Time has Told Me - Nick Drake
