Due to entirely foreseen circumstances, it was not possible to create this week’s shuffle on Friday so, a day late, here it is. I can only apologise to my many millions of subscribers who must have been devastated. But anyway, here goes.
Ten songs chosen at random from my collection by my music machine and I tell you what it’s chosen. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to listen along to the music and, if you feel so inclined, listen along, too. Just click on the title. It’s easy, like taking candy from a baby, as the song goes (but why would you do that?).
Here goes then. Let’s listen to the music.
- All Rights Reversed by The Chemical Brothers ft The Klaxons. We begin with this banger from the Geeky Boys’ 2007 LP We Are The Night.
- Six Weeks, Nine Wells by Field Music. Good stuff from the Mackems, taken from 2024’s Limits Of Language.
- The Love Of Richard Nixon by Manic Street Preachers. Excellent, from 2004’s Lifeblood. Such a good band.
- The E.N.D. by Pharcyde. Old skool hip hop from their 1995 – 1995? Seriously? – LP Labcabincalifornia. Love this.
- Perfect Gentleman by Wyclef Jean ft Hope Harris. Perfectly lovely from 2000’s The Ecleftic” 2 Sides II a Book.
- Most Of Us Are Sad by The Eagles. Beautiful Glenn Frey song, sung by Randy Meisner, from the band’s stellar 1972 album Eagles.
- Love On My Mind by Freemasons ft Amanda Wilson. Banging Disco/House taking us back to the year of our Lord 2005.
- Exitlude by The Killers. Short and sweet from the band’s 2006 long player Sam’s Town.
- Heaven’s What I Feel by Gloria Estefan. Back to 1998 for some formulaic disco from the lovely Glor.
- I Don’t Want Your Loving by Weezer. And finally, some Weezer from 2010’s Death To False Metal. Nice.
Well, that was fun! This week’s Desert Island Disc is, of course Most Of Us Are Sad by The Eagles.
Hopefully back to Friday again next week. Thanks for playing.
Have a good week till next week.
