Desert island tracks


S**t. I should be prepping for my interview on Tues. Instead I'm applying for other jobs. Remembering the awesome Black Kids+Ladyhawke gig on Thurs. Thinking of songs I would like to have with me in the event I get stuck on an island. Stupid, considering that I already AM living on an island. But in the very unlikely event that this island becomes "tropical" and "desert-like" , what with global warming/ climate destabilisation/ whatever, and I am the only one inhabiting it, I would like to know that I at least have some of my most beloved tracks with me to keep me company. And the complete collection of Calvin & Hobbes, of course. 

My seven tracks:
1) Just Like Heaven by The Cure - without fail, always, always, makes me smile.
2) Gentle Threat by Gonzales - beautiful solo piano piece.
3) Good vibrations by the Beach Boys - desert island. Beach Boys. yeah exactly.
4) Intergalactic by Beastie Boys vs. M.O.P. - for my amusement.
5) My Brain is Hanging Upside Down by the Ramones - makes me wanna jump up n down and rock out.
6) Wild is the Wind by Cat Power - oh that voice.
7) Till I get my way by the Black Keys - bluesy. soulful. perfect.
(If I made the rules and this was an 8 track list- Paris is Burning by Ladyhawke- Cut Copy remix- would be the 8th of course.)

Back to job apps. BOR-ING!!
