[Music] Bank Holiday music thread

[Icy Gull]

Years since we’ve done this I think


Go to shuffle on your MP3 player or equivalent and list the first 5 songs that come up. Your comments on them after they play welcome

I have so many songs that I seldom listen to and have to check what they are when they come up on shuffle


Alison Krauss and Union Station - Tribute to Peador ’O Donnell
Walker Brothers - Joanna
Creedence Clearwater Revival - Someday Never Comes
Maximo Park - (I’m Gonna Be) 500 Miles - edit (listening to this one now, what a load of shit it is)
Franz Ferdinand - Sound And Vision (edit - now up and a decent straight copy of Bowie)

God knows what Harry Wilson’s Tackle will come up with, I doubt I’ll know any of them
