My Sunday Soundtrack

April 14, 2008 by lkatulka

Music is such a big part of the lives of all of the bloggers here in the music channel, we thought we’d give you a little insight into the music we’re listening to. So we’ve all compiled a list of the songs we heard yesterday.

Mine’s a little bit different than it might be on an average Sunday as I was spent most of the day with my parents after the big k.d. lang show. So don’t judge me too harshly, but here it is.

When I woke up Dad was watching Sunday. Not a lot of music there, but James Reyne and Mark Seymour did make an appearance for a great performance of World Party’s “Ship of Fools.”

Dad headed downstairs to work on my car so I flicked over to take in a little Video Hits. The tracks are always a bit hit and miss, but I had my sister’s copy of Rolling Stone to amuse me when it was terrible. Here’s what I heard.

“Piece of Me” - Britney Spears
“Vogue” - Madonn
“Nothing Compares 2 U” - Sinead O’Connor
“With Every Heartbeat” - Robyn
“Sweet About Me” - Gabriella Cilmi
“Real to Me” - Brian McFadden
“Moving to New York” - The Wombats

Mum woke up around this point so I decided to go and hang out with her in the bedroom. My parents tend to just listen to the radio, and these were the songs I heard.

“Amazing” - Alex Lloyd
“Copperhead Road” - Steve Earle
“Good Excuse” - John Butler Trio
“Standing on the Outside” - Cold Chisel
“Untouched” - The Veronicas
“Check it Out” - John Mellencamp
“The World I Know” - Collective Soul
“If I Had Eyes” - Jack Johnson
“Dakota” - Stereophonics
“Let Me Entertain You” - Robbie Williams
“All Your Reasons” - Matchbox Twenty
“Fast Car” - Tracy Chapman
“The Joker and the Thief” - Wolfmother
“Safety Dance” - Men Without Hats
“U & UR Hand” - Pink
“Ashes to Ashes” - David Bowie
“I Was Made for Loving You” - Kiss
“Sounds of Then” - GANGgajang
“Pictures of You” - The Last Goodnight
“My Happiness” - Powderfinger
“Call Me” - Blondie

Then my Dad hijacked the radio and switched it to the easy listening station. I was in and out most of this time, but these are the songs I heard.

“Wild World” - Cat Stevens
“You Don’t Know Me” - Ray Charles
“When Will I Be Loved” - Linda Ronstadt
“Rainy Night in Georgia” - Randy Crawford

By this time it was around 5 so I decided to head home. I listened to the cool No Man’s Woman compilation, skipping the tracks that just don’t rev me. These are the ones that made the cut.
