FLOWERY, FUZZY FRIDAY RANDOM TEN

Azaleas
Spring brings azalea blossoms to Georgia.

It’s Friday, time yet again for Blog d’Elisson’s Friday Random Ten, the Musical Miscellany horked out by my Little White Choon-Box. As the azaleas above indicate, it is a beautiful spring day here in May-Retta. That means that those competing in the Masters Tournament just a scant 150 miles away should enjoy a pleasant day as well. Golfers, rejoice!

It’s also the perfect time to remind you that the Friday Ark is a-sail once more on the Bloggy Bay: its 186th fauna-filled fun floatation helmed by the estimable Modulator.

Sunday evening, be sure to visit the 213th Carnival of the Cats, to be hosted by The M-Cats Club.

Now: What’s on the ol ’box today? Let’s check it out:
  1. Sesame Seeds - Mitch Hedberg

  2. Elaimet huutaa - Alamaailman Vasarat

  3. Too Long At The Fair - Bonnie Raitt

    Jesus cried, wept and died
    I guess he went up to heaven
    I’ve been downtown such a long, long time
    I’ll never make it home by seven
    Won’t you come and take me home
    I’ve been too long at the fair
    And, Lord, I just can’t stand it any more

    Well I went down to Chasen’s
    Walked ’til my feet got sore
    I never knew what laughin’ was
    ’Til you walked out the door
    Won’t you come and take me home
    I’ve been too long at the fair
    And, Lord, I just can’t stand it any more

    Well, you can give my soul to Abraham
    Give my soul to Saul
    Give my bones to Canada
    My feet they don’t hurt at all
    I don’t know who made the highway
    I guess that’s just my pride
    But I have heard the Prince of Darkness
    On his charger ride

    The silver blade is gleamin’
    The scales are in his hands
    I swear the night is fallin’
    Don’t you lose another man
    Won’t you come and take me home
    I’ve been too long at the fair
    And, Lord, I just can’t stand it any more
    Lord, I just can’t stand it any more


  4. Everything You Did - Steely Dan

  5. Let It Be - The Beatles

  6. Tiny Dancer - Ben Folds

  7. Horsell Common and the Heat Ray - Jeff Wayne

    From Jeff Wayne’s Musical Version of the War of the Worlds.

  8. San Tropez - Pink Floyd
