Five for Friday, Zed's Not Dead edition

[coffeefortwo]

As a reminder, today is is the day when the two electronic spaces diverge so there's five here, one there.

As we're going to keep it simple here today. Well, at least the instruction is simple. Coming up with five songs might be a touch tricky.

As always, please play along...

I heart you.

1.Ziplock Bag...Beck...from the recently reissued One Foot In the Grave...from back when Beck smoked a lot of pot

2.Zawinul/Lava...Brian Eno... from Another Green World...I like to lie in the bathtub with the lights off as I listen to this song...Sigur Ros stole all their ideas from this man

3.ZAP...Guided By Voices...from Universal Truths and Cycles...robert pollard channeling Alex Chilton achingly sweet and melancholy and only a minute 14

4.Zebra Trucks...Young Marble Giants...minimalist post punks interpretation of BBC4's sign off music...

5.Zombie Boy...Magnetic Fields...just because your boyfriend is undead doesn't mean your love is too...

Now that I think about it, there's probably also a Guided By Voices song (or at least a Bob Pollard penned song) available for most topics.

[point_cowtown]

your point about Sigur Ros...could not agree more.

I like to think that the Zyklon song is off of an album called Zycho. Please don't tell me that I'm wrong.

[anonymous]

I can only think of 2 off the top of my head, might have to use itunes for the rest later...

1. Zoot Suit Riot - CPD

2. Zoot Suit - The High Numbers = before the Who were the Who...very cool stuff here!

Were you wearing an actual zoot suit when you wrote this? Is that why they came to mind? That's dedication to the theme, my friend.
