Joni Mitchell – River

My favourite not-quite Christmas song. Joni was just on the radio and I realised I’d not heard this song this year yet.

Harry Belafonte – Jump in the Line

This was played on the radio yesterday morning and as I was dancing round the bathroom brushing my teeth I was especially tickled by the line “when she wind up she bottom, she goes like a rocket” and I found myself singing the line in my head all day.

Talking Heads – Nothing but Flowers

As a lover of urban nature, I am always thrilled when I see nature softening the edges of our cities. Today I was walking through a tiny urban park on my way to my yoga class and I realised the path was completely obliterated by fallen leaves. And I started singing this song in my head.

Anderson.Paak – Jet Black (feat. Brandy)

I was just about to post this song as an earworm and it came on the radio. Hmmm, am I able to change reality with my imaginings?

I would willingly join this acid house wicker man cult. Where are my robes?

Michael Kiwanuka – You Ain’t The Problem

I’ve always had a soft spot for psychedelic soul and this hits the spot very nicely. I have been singing the la la la la bits to myself all week!

 

(and some lovely joyous natural dancing in the video)

Cocteau Twins – Lorelei

Ah, the strangeness of Liz Fraser’s mostly neologistic lyrics.

Air – Sexy Boy

In times like these we need to wear some GIANT TROUSERS and have a bit of a (sexy) dance.

Rapsody – Ibtihaj ft. D’Angelo, GZA

I LOVE the wonkiness and discord in this song.

D’Angelo provides the groove. MMMMMMMMMMhmmmm!
