Eleven songs for a gray and rainsome day

NaBloPoMo!

  1. Poor Boy, David Byrne and Brian Eno. This entire album is good for rainy days.
  2. Daddy Went Walkin’, Neil Young. Poppy asked to listen to “Old King” three times in a row in the car this morning. This one reminds me of that one. Probably because they both feature dogs.
  3. Blue Bayou, Linda Ronstadt. I love to sing along to this song. I am, however, surprised that I don’t hear howling dogs and screeching cats when I attempt that final note.
  4. Goodbye, So Long, Farewell, Music Together.
  5. That’s Right (You’re Not from Texas), Lyle Lovett. But Texas wants you anyway.
  6. Wonderful, Sam Cooke. I originally typed “cookie.” One-track mind.
  7. Night Sight, Air. I once saw Air filed as “Air, French Band” in a record store. Now I can’t think of the band as just “Air.”
  8. Zousan (Little Elephant), Elizabeth Mitchell. My iPod loves this song. It plays it at least once a day.
  9. You Don’t Know How It Feels, Tom Petty
  10. Be My Covering, Bebo Normal
  11. Yogurt Stand, Poppy. What, you’ve never heard “Yogurt Stand”? It’s the dance sensation that’s sweepin’ the nation. Not on my iPod (yet) but still awesome and heard frequently in my kitchen.

Yogurt stand
I really want to spin around
and it’s fun if I want to
and I love playing with “Another celebrated dancing bear”
and I love it so much
that I feel like spinning right now
‘Cmon and spin with me
wooo wooo woooo
If you wanna spin around
just ask a grown up
Alright!
Falling down, cha cha cha!
