Meme from John Scalzi

[zwol]

I always do what John Scalzi says, and today he says:

1. Open up the music player on your computer (if you have one -- the music player, I mean. Clearly you have a computer, because otherwise you couldn't read this).
2. Set it to play your entire music collection.
3. Hit the "shuffle" command.
4. Tell us the title of the next ten songs that show up (with their musicians), no matter how embarrassing. That's right, no skipping that Carpenters tune that will totally destroy your hip credibility. It's time for total musical honesty. You can put the list in the comment thread, or write it up in your blog or Journal and then post a link in the comments.

So, here's mine:

1. They Might Be Giants, "Space Suit" (Apollo 18)
2. Van Halen, "Why Can't This Be Love" (Right Here, Right Now (live album))
3. Was (Not Was), "Anything Can Happen" (What Up, Dog?)
4. Brother, "The Crow" (This Way Up (live album))
5. Guster, "Either Way" (Lost and Gone Forever)
6. Tom Waits, "Bad Liver and a Broken Heart" (Small Change)
7. Lou Reed, "Cremation" (Magic and Loss)
8. Depeche Mode, "Higher Love" (Songs of Faith and Devotion)
9. They Might Be Giants, "Cowtown" (Lincoln)
10. Buena Vista Social Club, "Pueblo Nuevo" (Buena Vista Social Club)

This from a collection containing 2793 songs, all-the-way-through playtime 7 days, 18 hours and 42 minutes. If you've never heard of Brother, by the way, go check them out right now.
