Here are some things I've been listening to, of late. Having all my CD's on MP3 finally means I can actually listen to stuff while I'm working without shuffling around looking for what I want. I realize that MP3 is lossy, but so was the audio cassette tape, and we used that for years cos we had no choice. Anyway.

Big Country, Talking Heads

Brick Windows, Ministry

Sinnerman, Nina Simone

Let's Get Retarded, Black Eyed Peas

Hangover, Max Webster

I Wanna Be Your Dog, Iggy Pop

I'm Bored, Iggy Pop

Boots or Hearts, Tragically Hip

The Hardest Button to Button, White Stripes

Sundown, Gordon Lightfoot

Whole Lotta Rosie, AC/DC

Twist in my Sobriety, Tinita Tikaram

Hot on the Heels of Love, Throbbing Gristle

rand()m quote

Work is about a daily search for meaning as well as daily bread; for recognition as well as cash; for astonishment rather than torpor; in short for a sort of life, rather than a monday-to-friday sort of dying.
