I've sort of avoided playing the tag game for some time now, but UK's
Blowing My Thought Wad hit me up with one that I'm happy to take a run at...
“List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they’re not any good, but they must be songs you’re really enjoying now.”In no particular order, here are my Magnificent Seven:
1) High & Dry' by
Radiohead...

How is that still on you-tube? Did Radiohead convince P that it's their song and he can't take it off the site? What's the scoop?

Nice try, but isn't it kind of cheating to name 9 people? You really think that's going to make Epstein and I not notice that we didn't make the cut? ;)
I thought I'd missed my chance to see the Prince version of Creep too - glad to see it's (back?) up.
damn...and I was just trying to be nice, Diane.
Yeah...that live Creep song was up and then taken down by Prince's people but then Radiohead said it was their song not his (to claim copywrite infringement)...then this version just appeared, but I've read that Prince is still trying to get all copies off Youtube so who knows...watch it quick!!
Will, I thought this would be a good one for you.
Nice selection. That's a really good comment about Radiohead. Even after all these years OK Computer always seems to be one solid block of music rather than individual songs.
How fun! I'll post something today.
One of my favorite albums of all time is The Bends by Radiohead. I agree - a band best listened to by the album, not by the song.
I collect and study rock music documentaries. I Am Trying to Break Your Heart is one of the best of all time.
Prince is hot.
Hey, thanks a lot, Dix! I'm on the road, distant from my tunes and apparently stuck in a town where all I can find on the dial are CBC and some place that plays Neil Diamond and Jerry Vale 24/7.
But I will respond as instructed. It'll just take a couple of days.
And...if Jim Prentice gets his way on copyright, will we even be able to do stuff like this anymore?
Frankly I feel "outed." Often what one says they listen to bears little resemblance to what's actually tickling their eardrums. In my case that couldn't have been more true. But thanks for including me, Will. It was fun to look at what I'd actually pressed the play button on.
So hard to pick just seven.
Wilco have been breaking my heart for years now. They're my all-time favorite band. But they didn't make my list.
