1. Kevin Ayers: diminshed but not finished
(oh that piano)
2. Velvet Underground: lady godiva's operation
(the way Lou comes in finishing John's line with "sweetly")
3. joy division: atmosphere
(reduces me to sobs everytime)
4. Eno: paw paw negro blowtorch
(sorts everyone into like or hate it without fail)
5. Pavement: Watery domestic EP
(okay so i'm cheating on this one)
6. Cope: I gotta walk
(honestly almost crashed a car listening to this, then the tape stuck in the player. must've been a cosmic vibe)
7. Bowie: Heroes
(it should be drab, but it never fails to uplift me, listened to it on a beach with the missus at sunset next to a campfire, felt heroic)
8. talking heads: found a job
(whitey gets funky in a jerky sorta way)
9. add n to (x): metal fingers in my body
(the kinda music that makes you want to throw yourself down a flight of stairs in gay abandon)
10. iggy: raw power
(just for the opening lines: "i'm a street walking cheetah with a heart full of napalm/i'm the runaway son of a nuclear a-bomb", i would feel like such a gimp if i had written that, but with iggy you can believe it)
