Moonchild and Friend: A Sonic Study of a Morning Walk Playlist
Note from the artist:
Every morning I walk Henry and every morning my iPod plays a "random" Playlist from among a gazillion tunes. I love how every morning there is a sort of theme linking the tunes together and so I am posting the songs as they pop up, along with my thoughts (or no thoughts) about each tune.
Amanti io vo se dire - anne softie (scattered rose petals) (deep breathing.... Calm thyself.)
The day - moby (dang I love moby... Kills the pain... Henry chasing after pigeons and the twirling of wrapping and unwrapping the leash around me)
(A haze, a smoggy spring. Thinking of the pain of the people, sending a wish) (I will be right here til all the pain just disappears) (its Easter time. That's for redemption.)
( Haha! Next song)
A Chant for Easter.... Alleluia Pascha nostrum- Milan records 1997- (I swear my phone is bewitched) (walked past two middle aged men kissing.)
A song for me- M83 Moonchild
(Gonna hear the future now, my children in the ethers) (this world is too rich to talk about, only music fits at a time like this) (a homeless young man in the lavender and sage) (this, too, is somebody's Moonchild) (smiles) (henry plays) ("i was in love with the voice... But all I heard was the echo and the light.")
If only to knock hipster off the bottom of my résumé...
And for .. fun....
Cher! Dove l'amore. Yesssssass.
(Unabashedly I Lllllllllluuuurrrrrve Cher! I have seen her live three times. She is amazing and gorgeous and funny. And she is in some of my favorite movies ever, most importantly, Moonstruck. So my playlist is still so connected!... Halfway through our morning walk, a theme is emerging.)
(Dance remix!)
(Oooooooooh. I have been craving the movies the next tune is from!)
An Ocean Apart by Julie Delpy
(Sorry- dropped my phone for a second as Henry chased after an unsuspecting skater.)
(An ironic return to the playlist...)
Black Butterfly, ahem, by, uh... Me.
Oooh! Bon Iver. Blood bank.
Yeah! The sexy voice of Muse....
Oh, man. Everything in life is worth it when you listen to this next tune:
I'm old fashioned, Coltrane
Just enjoy for a bit-
Okay! Back to a different kinda fun rounding out the list...
Are you ready?......
Shania!!!!!! Whoooooooooot! Any Man o Mine!!!
Yeah! I like it that way!!!! Shimmy! Shake! Make the earth quake!
