bum ba ba ba ba ba ba ba bum - "The Chain!" - ba bum ba ba ba ba ba ba ba...
Ah, what a miser I am with the massive music collection on my Laptop. So much still to listen to. Thus I have cunning plan, to adopt a Radcliffe and Marconi inspired feature to help me search for undiscovered items - The Chain!
The objective is simple - create a chain of music tracks, the next track bearing some link to the previous track. The link can be as tenuous as you like just as long as there is a track at the end of it. PLEASE PLEASE pretty PLEASE give me a suggestion for number 11 - anything at all!
Anyway here is my Mini-Chain with all the links explained:
1. Unchained - Van Halen
After a search on WM Player for ‘Chain’ this was one of the tracks
2. You Really Got Me - The Kinks
Van Halen did a cover of this original track by The Kinks
3. Kinky Afro - Happy Mondays
From ‘Kinks’ to ‘Kinky’!
4. Rockin’ Robin - Jackson Five
Our lodger John’s suggestion - Michael Jackson used to have an Afro, so…
5. Cuckoo Cocoon - Genesis
From one song with a bird in its title to another
6. The Sodom And Gomorrah Show - Pet Shop Boys
'Sodom and Gomorrah' is a story from the book of Genesis
7. Swing Low (Sweet Chariot) - UB40
The Pet Shop Boys’ hit 'Go West' has become a FIFA World Cup anthem so an anthem from the Rugby World Cup…
8. Ain’t She Sweet - The Beatles
From ‘Swing Low’ to ‘Swinging Sixties’ and from ‘Sweet Chariot’ to…
9. Lithium - Nirvana
The two surviving members of both the Beatles and Nirvana are the bassist and the drummer.
10. Live Forever - Oasis
Lead guitarists Kurt Cobain and Noel Gallagher were both born in 1967. Oh, and they were both brilliant pioneers in their fields respectively, Grunge and Britpop...
11. ?
Come on LJ folk, you surely have some imagination!
