Friday Random Top 10
First time this year the weather was nice enough I could ride my bike. It was glorious. Social Distortion blasting in my ears, almost got by hit by a car only once, sun shining in my eyes, trees are green. Perfect day.

Can’t forget this week’s top 10:
1. Shakin’ All Over – The Who
2. Ask – The Smiths
3. Bleed – Jack Logan
4. Judy is a Punk – The Ramones
5. Fight Test – Flaming Lips
6. Do Lord – Johnny Cash
7. Credit in the Straight World – Hole
8. Sometimes Good Guys Don’t Wear White – Hypstrz
9. Let’s Get Married – Al Green
10. I Love Living in the City – Fear
Now that’s what I call a random list. How many times does a gospel song follow the Flaming Lips or Fear follow Al Green? What’s your top 10?

Double artist stutter that does better by XTC than by Parker (his earlier stuff is best, without a doubt). Then a jazz classic, a Luna classic (not that enough people know that), Billy Bragg doing The Jam, a great Neko Case, Elvis and the Who for some historical perspective...iRandomed worse.
