Weekend Mixtape - Always Asking Questions













Musicians are a rum lot. One minute they act like they know everything, the next they are looking for answers. Here's a set of question songs. And, yes, I could have included "Should I Stay Or Should I Go?", "What Have I Done To Deserve This?" or "What Makes You Think You're The One?" but I elected to go for more contemporary tunes this time.
  1. Bob Evans - Don't You Think It's Time?
  2. Grant McLennan - Haven't I Been A Fool?
  3. Homer Hiccolm & The Rocketboys - Do I Wake Or Sleep?
  4. September 67 - What's Wrong With Alice?
  5. Counting Crows - Why Should You Come When I Call?
  6. Nik Kershaw - What Do You Think Of It So Far?
  7. World Party - What Does It Mean Know? *
  8. The Devlins - Where Are You Tonight?
  9. Abraham - What Gives With You?
  10. Iris - Annie, Would I Lie To You?
  11. a-Ha - Did Anyone Approach You?
  12. Bryan Adams - Why Do You Have To Be So Hard To Love?
  13. Pink Floyd - What Do You Want From Me?
  14. The Sundays - What Do You Think?
  15. Alex Lloyd - What's Wrong?

* During the research for this weeks mixtape, I discovered that World Party songwriter Karl Wallinger is a pretty neurotic individual. His other question songs include "Is It Like Today?", "What Is Love All About?", "Is It Too Late?" and "Who Are You?".

Also notice that a majority of the songs are performed by men. A little surprising considering the experience the gals have with phrases like "Did You Take Out The Trash?", "Does My Bum Look Big In This?" and "Where Were You Last Night?" - which reminds me, I need to dig out the Traveling Wilburys song.
