Song of the Day 1/3/10
Every day, our Top 666 Songs of Alltime countdown gets one step closer #1. Sunday’s song is #207:
David Bowie – Because You’re Young
“Because you’re young, you’ll meet a stranger some night.” The Thin White Duke in wise old rake mode, consoling the “psychodelicate girl” and the guy who might or might not be the right stranger. A gorgeous, bittersweet anthem from Bowie’s best album, Scary Monsters, 1981.
Song of the Day 1/2/10
We’ve resolved to keep up our daily tradition counting down the Top 666 Songs of Alltime, all the way to #1, and two days into our resolution, we haven’t broken it. Wish us luck. Saturday’s song is #208:
Roxy Music – More Than This
“More than this, there is nothing.” In a sense, Bryan Ferry’s quintessential song. Uninhibited, fearless, yet knowing there will be a comedown. Lush atmospheric beauty from the Avalon lp, 1982.
