From the drafts: Playlists

I stopped telling you my music ages ago. Maybe if I'd posted this the practice wouldn't have stopped. This should have gone out on October 26, 2009.


It's been a while since you heard what music I'm listening to so here is October's playlist:

1. The Road - Frank Turner

I'd heard this a few times on the radio but didn't know who sang it til I was driving home and Zane Lowe was on. I normally try to avoid him, he's a bit specialist. And "I'm on board" is just irritating but he was talking to Frank Turner and so I listened. Apparently Frank Turner loves what he does, going round gigging and that so wrote a song about it, which is quite refreshing from the usual artist moans of another hotel room etc etc. But I just thought the song was catchy.

2. Drumming - Florence + the Machine

Her and Paloma Faith are...unique. I've said before that I'd walk past many of the people on my iPod without recognising them. Not them. I'd notice them. But goodness they can belt it out. I love this song. She really captures the intensity of it all.

3. Wheels - Foo Fighters

I'm not a Foos fan. They are ones I'd definitely walk past them on the street. But this song is so catchy. Needs to be listened to driving on an interstate or something.

4. The Captain - Biffy Clyro

I think it's safe to say I have no notion what this song is about. Heck, I can't even determine one of the line, I'm pretty sure it's not what I sing, "I can't walk rat arsed".
