Desert Island Songs: The Squeakquel
When Vodes posted his Desert Island list last week, Joey and I thought it was a good list and a great idea. Joey immediately commanded me to write up my own list for this week’s article and since I had begun thinking up my list immediately after reading Vodes’ post, I thought, “Woohoo easy article!”
Unfortunately, this article was not as easy as I thought it would be. It turns out deciding on only five songs that I will listen to for the rest of my life (as in as long as the supplies on the plane last cause I’m not much of a survivalist) was not that easy. My first list mostly represented music from the late 90’s and early 00’s but then I realized I would eventually get tired of all that angst. I needed to diversify my list and include some more toe-tapping numbers.
My new list is better. It includes music from more time periods. It includes some singable songs (for when I get tired of simply talking to my volleyball) and is more of a broad sampling of Rock and Roll. So here’s my list in no particular order and without any references to LOST.
Come On Lets Go – Ritchie Valens
Its singable, danceable, and gets bonus points for being sung by a Mexican.
