Podcast Episode 17 - The Power Of Randomness
Round and round, the wheel of songs goes, where it stops, nobody knows...
Tonight we have for you a random selection of songs, served up by my iPod's shuffle mode.
But... Is it really random?
Do you ever get the feeling that there must be some sort of little pixie or gnome hidden away somewhere inside the thing, which is making all the decisions about which songs to play?
I know it happens to me all the time and, once again, what could potentially be a disastrous hodgepodge of songs turns into a great selection, starting up slowly and then picking up the pace gradually until it becomes a full fledged rock explosion!
And trust me, it really did come up like this, I didn't do anything except make a note of the songs as they came up and be amazed!
So here is the selection you got served up for tonight's episode:
- 00:00 - Intro
- 02:34 - The Butchies vs The Outfield - Your Love
- 07:16 - No Doubt vs Elvis Presley - Suspicious Minds
- 11:30 - Heaven 17 vs The Blue Öyster Cult - Don't Fear The Reapper
- 17:15 - Pennywise vs Ben E. King - Stand By Me
- 21:27 - Jawbreaker vs The Psychedelic Furs - Into You Like A Train
- 25:10 - Jaded Heart vs The Backstreet Boys - Larger Than Life
- 29:40 - Superbeing vs Duran Duran - Hungry Like The Wolf
You can download the show here or listen to it directly with the flash player below.
PS- After listening to the show don't you just get the feeling that "Larger Than Life" must surely have been written for some metal hair-band of the 80's and the Backstreet Boys must have discovered it unused somewhere and promptly proceeded to turn it into... what they turned it into? Surely that's what happened! ;-)
