iPod iChing - next 50 years

Hot and sultry friday. Happy, happy autumn.
So, we ask the iPod, in commemmoration of yestarday's anniversary...
This whole space travel thing, what will come of that?

Whoosh goes the randomizer.
Whoosh.

  • The Covering: Fantaisie de Concert II: Lento assai - Perlman
  • The Crossing: Hestavísur
  • The Crown: She's Lost Control - Joy Division
  • The Root: I Really Like You - Melissa Etheridge
  • The Past: Dawn Chorus - Modern English
  • The Future: Shut Down - Beach Boys
  • The Questioner: Wadidyusay? - Zap Mama
  • The House: Dance of the Sugar-Plum Fairy - Tchaikovsky
  • The Inside: Blood of the Lamb - Billy Bragg and Wilco
  • The Outcome: Góðu Börnin Gera Það

Interesting.
The Crossing is a set of "horse songs" - they're all good, and hard working.
The Outcome is "what the good kids do" another set of short songs about the chores that good kids do at home, help clean, work hard etc

The Future: an ode to the Corvetter doing road racing. Not my favourite Beach Boy song. I guess we'll have another race...

As always, the Key as explained by Sean
