Crafty Contributors Choose Contrasty Choonz
I think you might be able to tell I had fun with this week's contrast podcast. The theme is "Alliteration" and it was my choice, so I got to do the main intro and everything. Go here to listen to all the fun.
As is so often the case--and even though it was my choice--I still had trouble picking a song. There are quite a few songs that have titles that start with the same letter and, being the obsessionist that I am, I had to wade through every one I had in my library. I finally picked "Clip-Clop" by Cloud Cult mainly for the double alliteration, but also because throughout the song he repeatedly sings alliterative pairs of words. Listen and you'll hear what I mean.
Cloud Cult--"Clip-Clop" mp3 off Advice From the Happy Hippopotamus (buy)
My second choice was "LLL" by Jesse Sykes and the Sweet Hereafter. I love the guitars on this. She really wails in parts and you can definitely hear some Neil Young/Crazyhorse influences. I have to thank Danielle for introducing me to her music. "Those were happy times . . . "
Jesse Sykes and the Sweet Hereafter--"LLL" mp3 off Like, Love, Lust & the Open Halls of the Soul (buy) Is that not one of the best album titles of all time?
Next week's theme is "Sloth," the next in the seven deadly sins series, and it's open for submissions, so don't be a lazy bum. Get off your butt and submit something!
Yeah this was a hard Contrast! Nice pick though my dear. Still have yet to
get off my ass, maybe for Sloth next week. Wouldn't that be appropriate?
that would be most appropos, i think! i haven't picked a song yet, but not
because i'm lazy. : ) too busy, is more like it!
