Lightning Strike Singles Op
[quote name="conflictNo"]When I'm <i>not</i> listening to "Ping Island / Lightning Strike Rescue Op" (which is almost never), I repeat these over and over: "The Power Is On" by <b>The Go! Team</b>. Black girl jump rope cheers/rapping mixed with blaring trumpets is a good fit for my high-impact lifestyle of fighting and light-rail commuting. Bonus: the album is called <i>Thunder, Lightning, Strike</i>, which makes it easier to think about PI/LSRO when I'm not able to listen to it. "Leaf House" by <b>Animal Collective</b>. kittykittykittykittykittykitty(x8) MEOW (kitties) MEOW (kitties) MEOW (kit-ties) MEOW MEOW "The Woodland National Anthem" by <b>The Arcade Fire</b>. If I lived in NYC and had a lot of friends, we'd sit outside on the steps and play this song. Monty and Hokie Mokie would look down at us from the window of their 1 Bedroom loft across the street and smile. Roulette Dares (This is the Haunt) by <b>Mars Volta</b>. I'd go back in time eleven months and be accepted into a society where everyone was currently and acceptably enjoying this. "Pull Out" by <b>Death From Above 1979</b>. This song would power my time machine. A song about pulling out (after pushing in). Honorable Mention (because "Pull Out" is only 1:50 long): "Black History Month", the official white person's song for Black History Month. "Run Through" by <b>My Morning Jacket</b>. For city dwellers who fear cowboys. "Du E For Fin For Mig" by <b>Dungen</b>. Sing along in Swedish! 8:28. "Cabin Essence" by <b>Brian Wilson</b>. I've made a concerted effort to like Smile, but so far this is the only track that I give any play time. "Will You Smile Again" by <b>Trail of Dead</b>. Seriously, and a great ToD-style intro leads into it. "Safe" by <b>m83</b>. An incomparable finale of distant fireworks. [/quote]
