Hey there! Hi there! How there!

This week I present my newest playlist which features a “climb”  with one of my favorite songs of all time by Siouxsie & The Banshees and ends with an 80s pop gem. Intrigued? Well then, let’s get to it!

 

  • If So: Atlas Genius

If you are not familiar with Atlas Genius—they are an Australian pop rock band and they write some catchy tunes. Check them out!

 

  • Ch Ch Ch Check it Out: Beastie Boys

(RIP MCA)

  • The Wasp: The Doors

This is my number one favorite Doors song and I actually took a picture of Jim Morrison’s notebook at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame because it allegedly contained the original lyrics.

 

  • Kiss Them for Me: Siouxsie & The Banshees

I am reminded of my San Jose State days when I hear this tune. If you will allow me to indulge—I have a couple of videos for it. Let me know what you think!

 

  • Elephant: Tame Impala

Tame Impala is pretty big back in their native Perth, Australia.  (Another Aussie band!)

 

  • Sweet Disposition : The Temper Trap

One of my students absolutely LOVES Sweet Disposition so I made sure to include it on my list this week.

 

  • Close to Me: The Cure

Who doesn’t love Robert Smith? This song puts me into such a great mood.

 

  • Level: The Raconteurs

My friend Jennifer is the biggest Jack White alive and has travelled to several continents to see him play live. She is super cool in my book.

 

  • The Pit: Silversun Pickups

This song is fantastic for sprints and quick intervals.

 

  • Ridin: Chamillionaire & Krayzie Bone

“They see me rollin’—they hatin’….”

 

  • How You Like Me Now: The Heavy

No this is not a James Brown tune but it could have been!

 

  • I Just Can’t Get Enough: Nouvelle Vague

Why aren’t there more Portuguese bands singing bassa nova versions of New Wave songs?

 

  • I Can’t Go For That: Hall & Oates

Take the time to really listen to this song because it is wicked awesome.

 

That’s all I have today folks. Let me know about some of your favorite songs. I am always looking for good tunes.

 

Until next time…

 

Ox Ox,
