Not all of these songs/albums came out in 2005, but I don’t claim to be ahead of the curve when it comes to popular music.
Albums:
Björk: Medúlla
Brazilian Girls: Brazilian Girls – a birthday gift from a friend. Cool irreverent fun.
The Delays: Faded Seaside Glamour – this was a lifesaver last February when Summer seemed years away.
The Ditty Bops: The Ditty Bops – They showed up at CBGB’s 212 Lounge to play after a friend’s band and I was completely charmed.
Elliot Smith: From A Basement On The Hill
Handsome Boy Modeling School: White People
Beck: Midnite Vultures
Songs:
“Wishing on a Star” – original recording by Rose Royce & covered by Luka Bloom
“Give Me Your Love” by Curtis Mayfield from the Superfly soundtrack. The whole soundtrack is excellent, but this is the track I’m most taken with.
“Wichita Lineman” by Glen Campbell. This song is included on a couple of Top XXX Song lists not to mention covered many times, but I didn’t ever take note of it until going to see a comedy troup from Great Britain who used it in a sketch.
One of my resolutions for 2006 is to blog about music throughout the year instead waiting to the end.
