Friday's Playlist #15.5 Stranger Than Fiction

An ongoing series:

  • The Proclaimers, 'Whole Wide World' (Life With You)
  • Wreckless Eric, 'Whole Wide World' (Wreckless Eric)
  • Pardon the pun, but it was wreckless of me to inadvertently leave two songs on permanent repeat on iTunes overnight whilst the volume was down. I mean, I love both versions of the song, but the play count is now lying to me about how much I love the song.

    Sadly, this wee entry doesn't even have a happy ending. Another 30 minutes of not discovering the musical mistake would have finally displaced Cheap Trick's 'Surrender' from the Top 25 Most Played folder, but it wasn't to be. Maybe next time.

  • Kutosis, 'Nina Vatolina'
  • The Proclaimers, 'Act of Remembrance' (Persevere)
  • Dark Little Poet, 'Tired of Waiting'

  • Update 11/12/ 22
    Another case of missing MySpace music. Three tracks missing this time. I'm especially gutted that the Panic Stations track is missing. I'm convinced 15 years on that it was absolutely brilliant, and the only thing I can remember about it is that (I think) the band were from Derry in Northern Ireland. I also think the Amy Winehouse track is from before she really broke America  . . . and the world. I remember being a wee voice at the back talking up her genius, and no fucker would listen to me. Too many people bigging up Tori Amos for some reason.
