Confession: sometimes I visit the urban dictionary for sheer edutainment. It usually only lasts three clicks of the shuffle button before I become appalled at the state of our society and find something else to do. all that to say that I was thoroughly amused to find “drink things through” as one of the ud entries. Just because I love the brilliant play on words and the semantic priming and the assonance.
So with that in mind, I present to you my “sing things through” dump list. What Blaine Hogan calls his scratch pile, I’ve always referred to as my dumplist… For no other reason than I dump all the lingering songs of any given genre into a single playlist and let the shuffle function do its glorious thang:
just kids | mat kearney *
the nature of things | the herbert bail orchestra
maps | yeah yeah yeahs
my home | talisco
lovely | talisco
stunner | milky chance
loveland (studio version) | milk chance
loveland (bonus track) | milky chance
headache | seryn
paths | seryn
the wind and the storm | seryn
first mind | nick mulvey
cucurucu | nick mulvey
nitrous | nick mulvey
i don’t want to go home | nick mulvey
someday | the strokes
west coast | coconut records
wake up | arcade fire
say i won’t | lecrae (feat. andy mineo) *
all falls down | kanye west
i’m good | trip lee (feat. lecrae) *
the invasion (hero) | trip lee *
the show goes on | lupe fiasco
young, wild & free (clean version) | snoop dogg & wiz khalifa
from eden | hozier
shake me down | broken witt rebels
I haven’t had such an ecclectic dump in quite sometime, so it will be interesting to see what comes out of me in the next couple of months!!
