Where there's a Will, there's a way

Believe it or not, I'm going to do a non-political and non-environmental post for once. I recently bought an iPod. Yes, just now. I think I'm the last kid on the blogging block to buy one. Its like being the last kid in school whose parents got cable.

Up until now I've been left out of the blog iPod shuffle posts. You know, the ones about naming the next ten random songs on your iPod or most embarrassing guilty pleasure songs. So I found a months old post from another blog that I can finally copy! The challenge is to write your thoughts about the next five random songs that come up on your iPod. You have to write about whatever comes next up no matter how embarrassing. Here it goes...

1) Use Me by Bill Withers
I love 70's funk and soul. This is a great song that I like to play on the juke box at Mowie's Cue when I'm playing pool. I can tell who has good taste in music by how people react.

2) Rock & Roll by The Velvet Underground
I like the Velvet Underground a lot but its on the top of the list of bands people pretentiously say they like to show off what great taste in music they have and how "in the know" they are. Which is what I guess I just did but that's what came up on the shuffle.

3) Those Three Days by Lucinda Williams
Lucinda has a great voice for sad songs that remind you of someone you used to know.

4) Baby Don't You Do It by The Who
Probably my favorite Who song. It proves why Keith Moon was the greatest rock drummer of all time. By ironic coincidence it reminds me of the same woman that song #3 makes me think of.

5) Aeroplane Blues by The Black Keys
The Black Keys are an excellent modern bluesy alternative rock band out of Ohio. I saw them at Lollapalooza this year. Amazing guitar player.

Well, I didn't get any I'm embarrassed to have out of the 223 songs I uploaded so far. Darn! Its my new favorite toy.
