I made a really good playlist recently. The consequence of this action has been that I am staying up late again playing the first two levels of this puzzle game called Cubis over and over. Some highlights of this list include: Once Bitten Twice Shy by Ian Hunter (this is the original that Great White covered) who was once part of the great Mott the Hoople; Shake Appeal by Iggy and the Stooges (this song really makes you want to...shake); Killing of a Flash Boy by Suede ("All the white kids shuffle to the heavy metal stutter"; is there a better first line that that? what about the line, "Shaking obscene like killing machines here we go"); Baby Boomerang by TRex ("New York witch in the dungeon of the day / I'm trying to write my novel / And all you do is play/ Baby Boomerang") and the White Stripe's cover of Stop Breaking Down (the Rolling Stone's version from Exile on Main Street is pretty great too). So piping music directly into my brain is keep me up-late at nights.
