A lot of other bloggers are making top ten music lists for the holidays, but none of the other dog bloggers seem to do this. I have decided to be the first dog blogger with a top ten music list.
Lucky's favourite songs of the year!!
10. You Know I'm No Good - Ghostface Killah and Amy Winehouse - When I am told to wait in the back seat, but then I jump in the front seat, I know I'm no good, too.
9. I Was A Lover - TV On The Radio - The melody sounds like a bunch of cats being tortured. Slowly. It is soothing.
8. Sing Me Spanish Techno - The New Pornographers - This song is actually from last year, but it still makes me pant and sometimes dance.
7. Summersong - The Decemberists - I wish this song came out in the summer because it would be good to listen to while playing on the beach.
6. Let's Make Love And Listen To Death From Above - CSS - I have no idea what this song is about but the people who help me with my blog seemed to think it was neat that I like it.
5. It Covers The Hillside - Midlake - You know that feeling when you stick your head out of the car window and the wind rushes through your mouth, making your lips fill up with air, and your ears flap up and down? This is that feeling set to music. Midlake also sing about chasing deer.
4. Mr. Tough - Yo La Tengo - This is a great song for riding in the car, but I do not like the rest of the new Yo La Tengo CD so I always try to change it back to this song. Unfortunately, my nails can scratch car stereo buttons, so now I can only listen to this song on my dogPod.
3. Boys Don't Cry - Grant Lee Phillips - Gilmore Girls is my favourite TV show and both Grant Lee Phillips and Yo La Tengo are on that TV show. Grant Lee Phillips is on the show more often. If Lorelai or Rory put out a song this year, they would also be in my top 10. Also, this song is nice to listen to when I have to be alone, because girl dogs don't cry.
2. That Teenage Feeling - Neko Case - If I was a people, I'd be Neko Case. I wanted to make my whole top ten just the songs from Fox Confessor Brings The Flood, but I was told I would get treats if I had more variety in my list. This is the Neko song I listen to the most, but I love all her songs, even the old ones.
1. My Heart Will Go On - Garrison Keillor - Nothing summed up this year for me better than Garrison Keillor performing a song by Celine Dion in the season premiere of A Prairie Home Companion. And no one probably loved this rendition more than me. In fact, no people liked this rendition. It was only enjoyable for dogs. When Garrison Keillor sings, dogs are very happy.
Special treats go out to Sufjan Stevens, Nouvelle Vague, Peter Bjorn and John, Belle & Sebastian, Hell On Wheels, Mohawk Lodge, Jenny Lewis, and my perennial favourite, Eminem. I really liked all their new music, too.
I don't get it awards go to the Walkmen and the Wiggles. I was forced to hear a lot of these bands this year and don't get why peoples like them. They may be the same band, but I am sending them different prizes.
