Friday random ten
(we could do it all over again)
1. Come on Hard – Gin Blossoms (Major Lodge Victory)
“Come on hard at night – I cry for you and all the others;
I promise I won’t hurt them anymore.”
2. No More – Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers (Echo)
“When I see that sun go down,
my mind begins to clear.”
3. Hard Times, Come Again No More – Lost Dogs (Scenic Routes)
“Many days you have lingered around my cabin door;
oh hard times, come again no more.”
4. Hometown Boy – Over the Rhine (Ohio)
“You feel the need to run, but you don’t know why…”
5. Light Years – Pearl Jam (Binaural)
“I’ve understood feelings and I’ve understood words,
but how could you be taken away?”
6. If Your Poison Gets You – Frank Black (Paste 23)
“If you sink to madness,
say a little prayer.”
7. Everybody Hurts – R.E.M. (Automatic for the People)
“When you’re sure you’ve had enough of this life, well hang on…”
8. Last Night on Earth – U2 (Pop)
“She feels the ground is giving way,
but she thinks we’re better off that way.”
9. Devil Inside – INXS (Kick)
“Look at ‘em go, look at ‘em kick;
makes you wonder how the other half lives.”
10. Girly – The Refreshments (Fizzy Fuzzy Big & Buzzy)
“Well, I’ve gone to the hardware store;
I’m gonna’ buy you a really big hammer.
Girly, won’t you pull these nails out of my heart?”
Favorite: 10 (I think – at least I know the Refreshments can be counted on for some fun listening)
Least: 5 (wanted to like this song more, but it has suffered from the stench of most of Pearl Jams more recent output)
Seen live and in person: 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 & 10
A list of those not listless: Ben, Brian, Cziltang, Ellen, Fred, Jess, Kim, Marisa, Mark(- coming back in from the non-random cold, finally) & Matt
