Songs that *inexplicably* moove you...

Every now and then a Llamasoftie will say something interesting. Honestly! This is where we will keep these topics so that they don't get deleted.

Heh. Fascinatingly, I once did - genuinely - lose my bag in Newport Pagnell.
LOL - Really? - LOL - YOU SIR, ARE A STAR... ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)

Did you know that John Peel bumped into the great man at Newport Pagnell services, and he proclaimed "This is my favourite service station" - LOL ;)

George - We hate it when our friends become successful, and if they're northern, it makes it even worse... ;)

I didn't. But if I did, I'd never admit it around here. :D

about 2 years ago I was in a dump of a hotel in Shenyang, and heard Yesterdays by GnR. Rightsong at the right time kind of effect.

For the record, I tried to do a 'Llamasoftie Christmas Album' made up of a lot of the choices in this thread - but I couldn't whittle it down to a manageable number of tracks without feeling that I'd left people out. :(

This leaves loads of people out, and it's filtered heavily through my taste, but I think this will work as a single CD. First person to mention the song gets the credit mostly... there's loads of brilliant stuff left out, but I was aiming for some kind of flow. That's not so easy when you go from the Beatles to Boards of Canada via Supertramp and Underworld, but that's the kind of paths my radio show takes!

Here goes!

Beatles - Strawberry Fields Forever (Ads)
Mogwai - Punk Rock (nitebycandlelite)
Johnny Cash - Hurt (substitution for Snakey's suggestion)
Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds - Into My Arms (Mr. Anderson)
Simon and Garfunkel - Bridge over Troubled Water (bloody everyone)
Glen Campbell - Wichita Lineman (Ahchay)
David Bowie - Life on Mars? (Fuseball)
Peter Gabriel/Kate Bush - Don't Give Up (Ely, Gribbles)
Supertramp - The Logical Song (Sickboy)
Delgados - Pull the Wires From The Wall (flookster)
The Beach Boys - God Only Knows (Acronym)
Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah (Gribbles)
Schneider TM - The Light 3000 (Jon, via Tmuk)
Underworld - Cowgirl (Yak)
The Source feat. Candi Station - You Got The Love (Jon)
Boards of Canada - ROYGBIV (Datasette)

- A
