Even more #alternateFridayMusic and a cue of #fire

Holly Throsby  - Making a Fire

https://youtu.be/c1lpsu-PRyA

🎶 It's cold out but I don't mind it
I'm making a fire
Out of what I might find here
The old and the dying
We don't want them coming in
No!
Their heavy machinery
Messing up our young thinking
All night long
Now I'm here
And you're here
We're here! We're here!
It's cold out
It's bitter winter
We're making a fire 🎶

Hey! It's #alternateFridayMusic with the cue of #fire

Hunters & Collectors  - Everything's on Fire

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kS153X4cAdg

🎶 If I don't come home before midnight
And I call out your name in the dark
You'll know that I've been tempted
And I'll know that I've got no heart

And I'll know I won't be expected
And you'll think we're drifting apart
And I might as well be blowing at the top of the world
When my fingers find your body in the dark

Everything's on fire 🎶

@DJDarren My #AusMusic #ThePlaylistSuggestion (s) on the theme "fast" are

Ice - Magic Dirt. Because Ice is a term for methamphetamine, which is a type of amphetamine, colloquially known as speed. And it apparently makes things fast.

A song about Ping Pong - Operator Please. Because have you ever watched how quickly those world class players play ping pong? The song itself is fast, it's by kids (they grow up fast) and it segues to your toys and games episode.

Slow - Kylie Minogue. For every ying there must be a yang. Because being down under, everything is opposite.

Run to paradise - The Choirboys. Because what would be faster than people running to paradise?

Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers performed at my kid’s high school today. School lifted the phone ban so my son filmed it to show his sister who is a big fan. Crowd was going off for Balcony at the end! #canberra #AusMusic

Surely nothing to do with our great “democracy”, which of course has zero monetary influence. Just sharing great merch as a fan of #Ausmusic

Even more #fortnightFridayMusic the cue is still #indigo 🎉

The third album by the Indigo Girls was Nomads Indians Saints so here we have:

The Saints - Know Your Product

https://youtu.be/RVQwKyvygxw

I tried real hard, honest, to not go down this easy option but this is still fucking relevent nearly 50 years later so...

🎶 I'm just sitting in my chair when a voice comes on the air
Says "Why don't you try it? You'll feel all right!"
"Got some great new brand of smokes, cool your head and clear your throat
"Keeps you young, yeah, so in touch."

Cheap advertising, you're lying
Never gonna get me what I want
I said, smooth talking, brain washing
Ain't never gonna get me what I need

"Our new soap that's peachy keen saves your soul and keeps you clean
"It's recommended, used by the Queen
"Gonna improve your IQ, help in everything you do
"It's economic, don't cost too much." 🎶

It's still #fortnightFridayMusic with a cue of #indigo 🎉

The second album by the Indigo Girls was Indigo Girls so I'm running with "girls" for this one.

The Beautiful Girls - La Mar (live at the Metro)

https://youtu.be/cPB8svYROho

They start the song with this shout out:

This song goes out to anyone that lives on the Northern Beaches of Sydney, Australia

and well colour me indigo, but that's where I'm from. Still brings a tear to my eye:

🎶 This day is getting older
In fading light it's beautiful
This wind is blowing colder
And too soon I'll feel it's pull
Still, I took all my chances
Earned myself an even score
Try to learn my lessons well
...
Only love can be both heaven and hell
So sturdy up, sturdy up your heart
For the road is long ahead
I'll be with you even though we're apart
But your road is yours to tread
...
I've grown old on this ocean
Gave her all, my stronger years
Gave my wife my devotion
When she died, the ocean my tears
I've tried to teach you well son
All of everything I knew
Of how to live this life be true
Don't bow your head to no one
And no matter what you do
If you start then see it through 🎶
