My Desert Island Discs - I’ve not been asked but I’m compelled to share…
Well I might never get asked to do my Desert island Discs, so I thought I’d do them without being asked. After some considerable thought I think this is the 8 I would have to pick. Actually I’ve picked 12 but then I was never one for rules and its nearly impossible to do this anyway - if I did it in a months time it would be different I’m sure.
- Adele - “One and Only”
- Slam featuring Billie Ray Martin - “Bright lights fading”
- MGMT - “Kids”
- Lily Allen - “Everyone’s at it”
- Cee Lo Green - “F**k You”
- Madonna - “Bedtime Stories”
- Freaks - “The Creeps” (Thomas Gold Vocal Mix I think, but it’s a tough choice)
- Hot Chip - “One Life Stand”
- Philip Glass - “Mishima”
- Amy Winehouse - “Valerie (‘68 Version)”
- The Alan Parson’s Project - “Eye in the Sky”
And my luxury - an iPad of course, what else would I play the music on.
