"(Angels Wanna Wear My) Red Shoes"


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have my iTunes at work set to play random songs throughout the day. Now although I have roughly 24 hours of music to choose from, the "randomizer" inevitably plays a few of those songs every single day, sometimes more often than I prefer.

 

But every once in a while, Elvis Costello's "(Angels Wanna Wear My) Red Shoes" comes on and it makes me smile, because I know no matter how many times I hear it, I never tire of it. The lyrics are great, the music is upbeat and lively... what's not to love?

 

The Descendents' "Clean Sheets" and The Bouncing Souls' "Fight To Live" also fall into this category.

 

Any songs you people enjoy no matter how often you hear them?

The Costello song I never tire of is "Big Boys".

 

"Here, There, and Everywhere" by the Beatles

"Warewolves of London" by Warren Zevon

"Fame" by David Bowie

David Bowie - Space Oddity

The Velvet Underground - Heroin

The Rolling Stones - Sympathy For The Devil, Paint It Black

He basically summed up my picks, especially "Heroin."

 

"Sister Ray" by the VU too, and "Acrobat" by U2... hrm, "Gigantic" and "Tony's Theme" by the Pixies... and most of the White Album, Sgt. Pepper's, and Revolver.

One of the few songs that always brings tears to my eyes..I don't know why
