Weekly Mix #54

The first mix of 2007! Lordy be! What does that mean? I don't really know but I can say this, don't fear it. Listen and enjoy the music.


1. Superhero by Jane's Addiction
It wasn't really thirteen years in the making but it was thirteen years between Ritual De Lo Habitual and Strays. The band that spearheaded the Alternative Rock movement in the early 90s seemed to forget everything they did and went bland. If nothing else this is the intro to the show Entourage.
2. Elegantly Wasted by INXS

The last Michael Hutchence INXS album. Obviously there's nothing one can read into these lyrics and dance beat.

3. Fergalicious by Fergie
This is what happens when I stop being a music snob; i listen to this stuff
4. Show Me What you Got by Jay-Z
Jay- Z is the man
5. Aqua Teen Hunger Force Theme by Schooly D
This is for all those who watch Adult Swim
6. Random by Lady Sovereign
She's got the tongue and the rhymes
7. Walking Spanish by Tom Waits

Walking Spanish is a term that means you're being walked to your death.

8. Wolf Like Me by TV In the Radio

This band had this one incredible song and then some other stuff that wasn't in competition.

9. Raw Power by Iggy & The Stooges
I feel it!
10.The Metal by Tenacious D
This song is fairly accurate. Jack Blacks band is this.
11.Wanted Dead Or Alive by Bon Jovi

Have you seen a million faces? Have you rocked them all? Probably not. This is the first time I showed any favor towards the New Jersey band, until this point my stance was that they were hair and smiles.

12.Burner by Motötrhead
Mötorhead doing what they do best. They play loud and fast! This is also the first 2007 song on a mix.
13.(Reach Up for The) Sunrise by Duran Duran
I first heard this tune in Italy and I expected it to be a huge hit in the states when I returned but I was very wrong, radio didn't care.
14.Tony the Beat (remix) by The Sounds
Get out your keyboards and pretend it's the 80s
15.Dreaming by Blondie
Sweet melodies from a downtown New York band
16.What I Like About you by The Romantics
This is what you call a classic 
17.Psychobilly Freakout by Reverend Horton Heat
early 90s magic!
18.Great Balls of Fire by Jerry lee Lewis
They used to say he was the devil but the he married his cousin and faded away. he is still alive and making music however. The killer, I wish I could have seen him when he was young!
19.Flathead by The Fratellis
This song got more airplay in the iTunes adds than it did on the radio.
20.Young Girls by John Sartain
This song is very astute
21.Victim Of Love by The Eagles
More creepiness from The Hotel California
22.We Are The Champions by Queen
If you don't know this song you are a rock n' roll hater and a sports hater.
23.The Saints Are Coming (live) by Green Day & U2
I think all the proceeds from this song went to New Orleans; it's pretty over the top and silly.
