If you take a gander at our "Terrytalks" speaker promo video, you'll note that one of the sillier requests we had for our student speakers was to pick a song that would work if Terry talks were to have a soundtrack. If you remember, Terry talks has a fairly straight up mandate to connect students to each other over things related to social reponsibility, interdisciplinary collaborations, and/or environmental stewardship.
Anyway, what was great was that the suggested songs were so very diverse in genres. In fact, you can have a listen by clicking the tape below.
There was actually one song we can't seem to find anywhere (Skeffa Chimoto's Nabola Moyo - a Malawi hit song), but here is the mixed tape contents for your reading pleasure.
1. Ben Lee - Were All in This Together
2. Lalo Schifrin - Soundtrack Sel - Mission: Impossible
3. Pink Floyd - Another Brick In The Wall (Part 2)
4. Saul Williams - List of Demands(Reparations)
5. Phoenix - Lost and Found Itunes Amazon
6. The New Pornographers - My Rights Versus Yours
7. Dolly Parton - I Will Always Love You
8. Europe - The Final Countdown
Anyway, we're also looking for other suggestions - thought this might make a nice tradition down the road. Suggest away!
Oh yeah, and if you haven't seen the video, here it is below:
