Gigantic - Pixies

Clair De Lune -Debussy

The Girl and the Robot - Röyksopp

In Between Days - The Cure

I See A Darkness - Bonnie Prince Billie (though not sure which version)

Cortez The Killer - Neil Young (ugh, just one Neil Young song)

Lay It Down Slow - Spiritualized

Ice Hockey Hair - Super Furry Animals

 

If @Dr Marco hadn't already put God Only Knows, I might have chosen that too, but I want to avoid duplication.

 

I could have a completely different list tomorrow, though the top too are pretty locked in. When I think of the acts, and even genres, I've omitted from that list, I feel sick to the stomach!

I realised I left out AM 180 by Grandaddy, a song I can listen to on repeat many times over, but which of the above to sacrifice? Aaaaaaaarrrrrrrggggggghhhhhhhh!

Simon and Garfunkel - Baby Driver 

 

John Coltrane - Blue Train 

 

Bob Marley - Natural Mystic 

 

Rebirth Brass Band - Feel like funkin' it up  ( live street mix )

 

Beastie Boys - Open Letter to NYC

 

Pharcyde- Passin Me By 

 

Sly and the Family Stone - If You Want Me to Stay 

 

Marvin Gaye - Inner City Blues 

 

To pick 8 songs is near impossible,

but if I suddenly woke up on a desert island and they were the only songs I had I'd be happy.

It really is isn't it. 15/20.years ago my list would've been mainly guitar inspired tracks but those 2 would still have been on..

Johnny Cash - Redemption

Blur (ft. Francoise Hardy) - To the End

Depeche Mode - Enjoy the Silence

The Flaming Lips - Do You Realize?

Richard Hawley - Valentine

Bee Gees - You Should Be Dancing

Sufjan Stevens - Flint

Beastie Boys - Ch-check It Out  (my pissed out my brain go-to singalong - I'm presuming there will be fruit fermentation going on)

 

That's made my brain hurt.  I can come back in an hour & none of those will be on my list.

Argh! I left Do You Realise out!

 

This would look be a lot easier with albums... but even then...

 

Can't I just have some form of mp3 playing device? Hang on! My luxury item is a solar-powered 1tb mp3 player.

 

Which has got me thinking... has anyone ever requested a record player as the obviously necessary luxury item, or is that given as washed ashore... and also that it's an old hand drinkable one?

Van Morrison - The Healing Game

Neil Young & Crazy Horse - Hey Hey, My My ( Into the Black)

The Kinks - Waterloo sunset

Bob Dylan - Jokerman

Bruce Springsteen - Racing in the Street

James Taylor - Carolina on my Mind

Simon & Garfunkel - Kathy's Song

Pearl Jam - Alive

This is near impossible but I’d go for something like this:

 

Don’t Bother Me - Bad Brains

Gimme Shelter - Merry Clayton

Hey - Pixies

A Forest - The Cure

Downpressor Man - Peter Tosh

Maggot Brain - Funkadelic 

Jack The Ripper (live) - Morrissey

Shine On - The House Of Love

On that desert island under a palm tree, wouldn't mind those two choices myself.
