  • For those of you not following the Bowie draft

    30.10 Life On Mars?, David Bowie, Hunky Dory, 1971 (WC)

    If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

    • 30.11 River, Joni Mitchell, Blue 1971

      Blue is one of my favourite records of all time. Like Murmur etc ... hard to pick one stand out song from it.

      • It's my turn, so I am going to do one finally. Theme from Hawaii Five O. This is the full theme, which you rarely hear.


        The Ventures album version.

        • 30.12 Have A Cigar (Pink Floyd, Wish You Were Here, 1975)




          And we're done! (Except for the mulligans. And I waive my mulligan.)

          • Mulligan:

            Out: Fast Car, Tracy Chapman

            In: About A Girl, Nirvana, Bleach, 1989

            Thought I'd definitely pick a song from In Utero ... although there is a no-brainer from Nevermind still hanging out there! but then again ... I definately thought I'd pick about 5/6 bands that never even got a mention.

            • Love "Have a Cigar" - great f**king pick
              "I lingered round them, under that benign sky: watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth."

              • i too waive my mulligan..although I heard "Personal Jesus" yesterday and i had completely forgot about it. I though about using it as a mulligan, but decided to keep my picks as is.

                  Yep Love have a Cigar. I find it amazing that I didn't have room for Pink Floyd. On any given day they are my first or second favorite back. But that is what makes for an exciting draft.

                      That was the Stones song I was going to take.

                        Frankly I was shocked it wasn't picked in the draft. Love it!

                          Ditto. It is my second-favorite Stones song, after the one I picked (Can't You Hear Me Knockin').

                          FYI, as I mentioned in the other thread, I too am waiving my mulligan.

                          • I just couldn't find a Stones song to take.. Love them, but they don't have a song or two that ranks among my all time favorite songs.
