The Ultimate Playlist Thread

ButterCookie · #1 03-21-2010, 03:37 PM

I thought it would be a really cool idea for each of us to compile a 15 song playlist with some of our ultimate tracks on, including a You Tube link, so we can all go and listen to each others choices.

I didn't include Stevie, Christine & the Mac in mine, because you've all heard all their songs before and I want this to be about finding new music

1. Detroit 442 – Blondie
2. Sweet and Low – Deborah Harry
3. Hang on to Yourself – David Bowie
4. Someday – The Strokes
5. Pale Blue Eyes – The Velvet Underground
6. Dog Days Are Over - Florence + the Machine
7. Tall Dark Handsome Stranger - Heart
8. Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell – Iggy & the Stooges
9. The Killing Jar – Siouxsie and the Banshees
10. The Rebels – The Cranberries
11. Dancing Barefoot – Patti Smith
12. The Race is On – Suzi Quatro
13. Sheena is a Punk Rocker - Ramones
14. Trash Can Murders – The Runaways
15. The Blank Generation – Richard Hell and the Voidoids

Ooo, fun! I will leave off anything too metal, since I know that's not really everyone's speed here.

So, in no particular order, except for the first, which is, to me, pretty much the greatest song ever written:

- "Oh My Lord" - Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds, live in Lyon

- "Flood II" - The Sisters of Mercy

- "Upside Down" - Tori Amos, live at the RAINN benefit

- "Waiting for the Miracle" - Leonard Cohen

- "God Hates a Coward" - Tomahawk

- "For Her Light" - Fields of the Nephilim

- "Endsmouth" - Agents of Oblivion (Neil Gaiman fans may recognize the inspiration behind this song)

- "Chinese Arithmetic" - Faith No More (this live version has the hilarious Lady Gaga "Poker Face" intro)

- "Desert Song" - Dead Can Dance

- "The Four Horsemen" - Aphrodite's Child

- "Wild World" - Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds (re-doing a classic from Cave's Birthday Party days)

- "The Bones of Babydolls" - Acid Bath

- "Release" - Sunshine Blind

- "Waitin' Around to Die" - Townes van Zandt

- "Lawyers, Guns & Money" - Warren Zevon

- "Forever More" - Moloko (LOVE this video, too, the choreography is so fun)

I think I did one too many. But I could keep going. Haha.
