It’s that time again! I’m bringing back something from my old, regular blogging days of the mid-aughts: the Friday Random Ten. I don’t remember who started this tradition, but a bunch of us Philly bloggers would bring this around every Friday. The basic rules are:
- fire up your digital music player
- go to “all songs“ and shuffle play everything
- note the first 10 songs to show up, without skipping anything
- create your playlist
Today’s Friday Random Ten, brought to you by
- “Breakdown (bonus track)” – GrooveWorthy, The 80’s Dream Compilation Tape, Volume 2
- “Time” – Hootie & the Blowfish, Cracked Rear View
- “NY-San Anton” – The Ladybug Transistor, Daytrotter Session: SXSW (Jun 6, 2007)
- “Cecilia” – Simon & Garfunkel, Simon & Garfunkel's Greatest Hits
- “Come Undone” – Duran Duran, Duran Duran (The Wedding Album)
- “New Horizons” – Timecop1983, Reflections
- “The Great Gig in the Sky” – Pink Floyd, Dark Side of the Moon
- “Welcome to My Room” – Vietnam, Daytrotter Session: Jan 14, 2007
- “First Tube” – Phish, Y100 Sonic Sessions, Volume 5
- “Invincible” – Muse, Black Holes and Revelations
Artists I’ve seen live: Duran Duran, Muse
Stuff I’ve kinda seen live, but no, not really: pretty sure it doesn’t count as “live” by watching The Wizard of Oz while Dark Side of the Moon plays.
Favorite track on the list: this playlist could be a banger if put into a proper order, so this is difficult. Call it: GrooveWorthy, since I’m feeling the retrowave vibe today. (see also Timecop1983)
Least favorite track on the list: uuuuuuuuh. 🤔 Phish? Maybe? but not really?
