Share EXACTLY Three Songs

1

Continuing the discussion from The human race is full of jerks:

Maybe we can all lighten up just a bit?

Share Three Songs!

Rules:
- YouTube links only! (You can just drop the video’s page URL at the beginning of a line, and you’ll get a YouTube embed, btw. Vimeo is ok too I guess.)
- NO making fun of peoples’ jams! Discussion is cool.

THE LIST:

  1. A song you’d listen to at the start of your day to get going.
  2. A song you’d listen to at work that would make you look cool (ok probably not).
  3. A song for when you’re chilling after a busy day

Yeah, I’m stuck in a time warp.

Actual wake-up song at one point in my life (now I set the iPod on global shuffle, so it’s a different song and genre each time):

Whatever I’m working on for the next performance, which currently is:

Really anything by Mary Chapin Carpenter, who can spin a tale:

Gonna risk a flag and post three real ones…

Good morning song:
Perhaps BB by Girl in a Coma

Worktime:
Lighten Up by Morcheeba is energizing without being too annoying to others.

Chill:
Got What I Deserved by Kramer

The song that cranks out of my PC at full volume every morning, and which I’ve accidentally conditioned myself to dread:

Clare Maguire - The Shield And The Sword (Loadstar Remix)

What I play at work to look cool:

Savant - Wildstyle

What I play at home to unwind (dancing counts dammit)

1. Natalia Lafourcade - Hasta la raiz

2. Ghost - Cirice
I listen to this at work. It only makes me 10% cooler. (They’re playing in San Diego tonight, I should’ve bought tickets, that would’ve upped my rating at least 17.5%)

3.Tedeschi Trucks band - Midnight in Harlem
