iPod iChing - 'oh eight

Final friday of lucky ol' seven.
So, we approach the Mighty iPod and ask with intrepidation: what is in store for '08?

Whoosh goes the randomizer.
Whoosh.

  • The Covering: Long Time Gone - Dixie Chicks
  • The Crossing: The Miller's Dance - Julian Bream
  • The Crown: Love WIll Tear Us Apart - Albert Kuvezin & Yat-Kha
  • The Root: I Am A Lonesome Fugitive - Roy Buchanan
  • The Past: A Pilot Flies Her Plane Plane Plane
  • The Future: Nýir Siðir í Hálsaskógi - Thorbjorn Egner
  • The Questioner: Brain Stew - Green Day
  • The House: Pretty Girls Make Graves - Smiths
  • The Inside: Snowman - Spilverk Þjóðanna
  • The Outcome: Wrapped Around Your Finger - Police

The Future is "new customs in the forest" - as I recall it is when the fox is chased away and co-operation and niceness is restored and fear banished. We can hope.

"I have only come here seeking knowledge
Things they wouldn't teach me of in college
I can see the destiny you sold
Turned into a shining band of gold"

As always, the Key as explained by Sean

"I'm having trouble trying to sleep
I'm counting sheep but running out
As time ticks by
And still I try
No rest for crosstops in my mind
On my own... here we go "
