Uncle Grumpy's Musical Oddysey

Day 3,095, 16:09 • Published in Ireland Ireland

• by Releasethe Krakken

Uncle because in our culture we have an obsession with age and everyone calls you uncle phegh... as a sign of respect and just in case some young woman is confused...

Also because pub owners gets cranky if one of the old foggers gets lost before the jukebox. Because always the same music must play on his airwaves. I can hear them screech behind me oh no krakken is at the tunes.

Perhaps I will get a beer later. I dont seem to get hangovers anymore which mean I am either dead or drink too little or have found the magic cure with all the medicines me are taking. Anyway here is some music.

Today we are going more with laid back music so here goes of the 80's nineties and noughties even of this decade whatever its called.

The La's - There she goes (gruntier orginal version me thinks)

Sixpence none the richer (version)

New Radicals - We only get what we give

Third Eye Blind - Semi Charmed Life

All together now - The Farm

500 Miles - The Proclaimers

Communards - Dont leave me this way

James - Laid

Come on Eileen

Deep Blue Something - Breakfast at Tiffany's

The cure - Friday I'm in love

Counting Crows - Mr Jones

Jimmy Eat World - The Middle

Semisonic - Chemistry

...suddenly my mission was clear...

She's so High - Tal Bachman

New Radicals - Someday we'll know

Foster the people - Pumped up kicks

James - Sit Down

Ocean Colour Scene - The Day We caught the train

The Stone Roses - I wanna be adored

Mazzy Star - Fade Into You

I wanna hold the hand inside you
I wanna take the breath that's true
I look to you and I see nothing
I look to you to see the truth

You live your life, you go in shadow
You'll come upon and you'll go black
Some kind of night into your darkness
Close your eyes with what's not there

Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew

The strange light comes on slowly
A stranger's heart is out of home
You put your hands into your head
And your smiles cover your heart

Mazzy Star - Fade Into You Lyrics

Waterboys - The Whole of the moon

Closing Time - Semisonic

encore

Len - Steal my sunshine

Do you happen to be rolling mostly the songs that were or are on radios all the time?

this was more the music i downloaded and liked semisonic. james was to the back of our university attendance .waterboys my sister had 2 lp's i had a tape of stone roses more tot the back of nirvana. youtube is brilliant though at grouping music. i started downloading music heavily with audiogalaxy because of the proximity software one could share a lot. these days i copy from youtube videos. this more mainstream but still fun.

I prefer FLAC files, so I download mostly from PirateBay. 🙂

Very neat trick for downloading from YouTube is this:
Change "youtube" in URL to "pwnyoutube".
Example: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rt6fXa60Y8A
Downloadable: www.pwnyoutube.com/watch?v=Rt6fXa60Y8A
