I will grab you by the ears

[raybear]

I'm home all day writing up mission statements and goals and skills and timelines and curricula. This will be more fun if you give me songs to listen to while I work. New or obscure stuff I should discover, old stuff that's good for the brain or soul, outrageously bad stuff that will make me laugh -- whatever. Recommend one, two....eight.

Thanks in advance.

you might've pulled these from my journal already, but here is a collection of stuff that I absolutely love:

Wanda Jackson - Funnel of Love
Wonderful, etheral rockabilly ballad from the Queen of Rockabilly.

ELO - El Dorado
Cheesy and brilliant at the same time. Jeff Lynne's voice is creeptastic!

Sid Laverents - Fatman
I couldn't stop singing this song to myself for two months.

Sebastian6 - Thirties
One of mine.

The Zombies - Care of Cell 44
Poppy as poppy can get...in the '60s

Gumby Theme Song
Retro-reverby theme to the show.

The Pioneers - Let Your Yeah Be Yeah
Ska from Jamaica...catchy. I'm a sucker for good pop.

King Crimson - Moon Child
Don't let the fact it's King Crimson deter you. I hate prog/art rock, but this is a nice departure.

Ahsa Bhosle - Dum Maro Dum
Play this back to back with the Gumby theme and you'd think they'd recorded in the same studio with the same guitarist.

Too bad you won't be here Friday, you could come to karaoke with us and sing some ELO!
