Playlist June 2 - 8

Sorry about last week's playlist no-show, but then I guess most of you didn't even notice... Starting today, I will occasionally post the playlist on Wednesdays since I will most likely - hopefully - have better things to do with my Thursdays..

  1. Superthriller - Superthriller 1: This year's camp classic. If the Scissor Sisters can make it big then I don't see how this electro-funk band can't do the same. The whole album is great fun.
  2. Mariah Carey - We Belong Together: A great voice is a terrible thing to waste, and she definitely wasted the past few years with crap material. However, this song is great and she sounds terrific.
  3. The Magic Numbers - Forever Lost: Sunny, bright pop music.. like an alternative version of 60's group The Mamas & The Papas.. They even have a "weight challenged" female vocalist.
  4. Turin Brakes - Fishing For A Dream: A beautiful folk song from this talented London-based duo.
  5. Nelly Furtado - Grass Is Green: From her under-rated 2003 album; the part when the strings kick in is sublime.

This week's classic pick is Marvin Gaye's What's Going On? .. an R&B classic that is so suitable for the screwed up world we live in today.

  2. Purg... I didn't find any interesting trivia in this week's list, hence no quiz
