iPod iChing - a most Nobel endeavour

It is the season for the Swedish Academy to ponder, and we ask the Mighty iPod, what is your prediction for who will win the Nobel Prize this year?

Whoosh goes the randomizer.
Whoosh.

• The Covering: Waiting for the Great Leap Forward - Billy Bragg
• The Crossing: Heroes and Villains - Beach Boys
• The Crown: St Swithin's Day - Billy Bragg & The Red Stars
• The Root: Skyttan - Mx-21
• The Past: Song to the Siren - Tim Buckley
• The Future: O Soave Fanciulla - Pavarotti
• The Questioner: Grafir og Bein - Bubbi Morthens
• The House: Perfect Day - The Saints
• The Inside: Not So Sweet Martha Lorraine - Country Joe & The Fish
• The Outcome: Billy Bragg Podcast 4: Brewing Up With The Burns

Ouch, The Questioner is "Graves and Bones" - an autobiographical riff of ups and down, terrors and triumphs.
Ok, too delphic for me - do your own projection...

Ok, the Outcome is the tale of 1984 - the heyday of alternative post-punk.
First song is "Lover Sings" - tale of translation errors, reproduction and descent, clearly the Med prize;
second is "From a Vauxhall Velox" - for physics?! - brits doing interactions on the cheap?;
third one is "I wanna talk about it", which ought to be Chemistry;
fourth one is "World Turned Upside Down" - some radicalism for Literature I gather, or I am wrong about the ordering and this is for economics!;
Peace and Economics? I got nothing...

As always, the Key as explained by Sean

Waiting for the Great Leap Forward
One leap forward, two leaps back
Will politics get me the sack?

Here comes the future and you can't run from it
If you've got a blacklist I want to be on it

It's a mighty long way down rock 'n roll
From Top of the Pops to drawing the dole

If no one seems to understand
Start your own revolution and cut out the middleman

In a perfect world we'd all sing in tune
But this is reality so give me some room

So join the struggle while you may
The Revolution is just a T-shirt away
Waiting for the Great Leap Forwards
