Recently, Squeeze has made a comeback in my musical cravings. A couple songs I don't think I've posted before, but I've come to enjoy for their spooky tones:
"The Very First Dance"
"Out of Control"
Speaking of spooky, this crawled into my brain a few days ago and it was clear that I needed to fully appreciate the Monochrome Set in all their brilliant lyrics and spookiness. Bid's delivery gets me every time.
The Monochrome Set - "Eine Symphonie des Grauens"
I've also realized how glaringly suitable this song is for many people I know. (Also "Low" is
such a flawless album.)
David Bowie - "Breaking Glass"
I've posted this next one at least twice, but I feel it's a necessary ABBA track for every "they were just a stupid disco thing" skeptic to hear. This is pure magic. This is a masterfully spun tapestry of perfectly compatible harmonies.
ABBA - "I Let the Music Speak"
I found this a couple nights ago and though I'm normally completely spellbound by Jim Morrison, this was outright captivating.
The Doors - "Unknown Soldier" (Live at Hollywood Bowl)
And though this pretty much wraps it up, I need to post this one again because holy lord.... oh, .... Jim ..... that poem about Pamela.
The Doors - "Light My Fire" (Live at Hollywood Bowl)
