I’m so happy, ’cause today I found my friends…
1. Icicle – Tori Amos
2. Heart And Soul – T’Pau (Carol Decker)
3. Fast Car – Tracy Chapman
4. Crimes Of A Misspent Youth – Trish & Darin (Trish Murphy)
5. New Kid In Town – Trisha Yearwood
6. Lithium – The Vaselines (Frances McKee)
7. Turn The Beat Around – Vicki Sue Robinson
8. Harbor – Vienna Teng
9. Metro – The Vincent Black Shadow (Cassandra Ford)
10. When Planets Collide – Viva Voce (Anita Robinson)
“New Kid In Town” is from a CD of country Eagles covers, and “Lithium” is from a SPIN magazine free download of Nirvana covers. Trish & Darin are the local connection this week, though Trish Murphy has lived in Austin since the 90s. “Metro” came out in 2006 and got a fair amount of airplay on 89.7 KACC, which was my main radio station at the time. It came on several times while I had Olivia (then two or three years old) in the car, and each time she would pipe up to say “I like this song”. So of course I bought it.
