Friday Random Ten – The “I Shall Never Write Fictional Letters On This Blog Again” Edition

Lauren

If it’s Friday, it’s time for the Friday Random Ten. Load ’em up, hit play, and list the first ten that shuffle out on their feet.

1) Belle and Sebastian – The Boy With the Arab Strap
2) Brian Ferry – Smoke Gets In Your Eyes
3) Mount Sims – Object Electronique
4) Roots Manuva – Dub Styleslike Short Hand
5) The Breeders – Do You Love Me Now?
6) Danielson Famile – Did I Step On Your Trumpet?
7) Sammi Smith – This Room’s For Rent
8) Nico – These Days
9) Donovan – Get Thy Bearings (best walking the sidewalk song ever)
10) Vashti Bunyan – Timothy Grub

Or if you trust the Last.fm tool more, the top ten tracks of the week by rotation include the following, and for reference, the Q Lazzarus song is the “tuckage” song from Silence of the Lambs and still retains its delicious squickage when not in the movie.

Bonus: a lighthearted and funny rap video first seen at Slant Truth, Roots Manuva’s Witness (1 Hope).

  2. Dear Lauren,

    Your “Friday Random Ten” sucks and stuff. Sure, Brian Ferry’s “Smoke Gets In Your Eyes” is as haunting as, well, anything the man sings (and warbly too!), but really, um, you shouldn’t write people letters. That’s totally rude.

    Sincerely Yours,

    Not-Scott

    P.S. Scott wrote this, but had to stand on principle or something resembling it.

    P.P.S. The Danielson Family are conservative Christians. What’s with you liking them, outside of the fact they’re good? Jeez …
