As you're about and about living your life, what's the soundtrack accompanying your follies? Mine's Moondance...'specially when I'm feeling sassy. http://www.angelfire.com/mi/yooper1/Moondance.html:)

5. The Hugh Masekela version or the Friends of Distinction version? |
|
Both kick ass, and I could not ever decide which is the best if I had to.

That would have been a good song for pool-playing follies. Preferably if you are accompanied with a woman wearing very high heels. For some reason, this is the image I conjure with this song.

especially if your life is bleak and senseless, and every action causes pain to either yourself and those around you, and you're trapped in a cycle of working a dull job to maintain a lifestyle you hate, but you're too apathetic to change anything so you do the same things day after day.

sadly, the CD case for "Lonesome Crowded West" seems to be at home, but yeah, I seem to recall the liner notes consisting of photos that illustrate the general idea.
Gotta say I've paraphrased the lyrics to "Custom Concern" pretty well too, if I do say so myself.

It's not really Morphine, as Mark Sandman performs on the track with Russ Gershon and someone else. It's a KILLER track - a smooth instrumental.

48. "Watch Me Fall" by Uncle Tupelo |

some folks find that their role in life is to fail at everything they try while other folks see but not like me there's one thing that they're damn good at
gather around you all come around and see those who stand tall why don't you please watch me fall
the hole it is wide and it's there to divide it's no one's fault, it's put there by design and there's a bridge yet to build as many men have willed that can stand the weight of all those who wish to pass
gather around you all come around and see those who stand tall why don't you please watch me fall

That genre title doesn't do their music an ounce of justice. But, of course, you know that. Great band, great songs...
That song would be selected for my "sunny day, snacking on pretzels, need some serious musically-based revitalization because I've been on my road trip for a few hours" folly.

64. "I Wanna Destroy You" by the Soft Boys |
|
I wanna destroy you I wanna destroy you I wanna destroy you I wanna destroy you
I feel it coming on again Just like it did before They fill your mind with boredom And they lead you off to war
The way we treat each other Really makes me feel ill And if you're gonna fight Then you're just dying to get killed
I wanna destroy you I wanna destroy you I wanna destroy you I wanna destroy you
A box upon the media And everything you read They tell you your opinions And they're very good indeed
I wanna destroy you
And when I have destroyed you I'll come pickin' at your bones And you won't have a single item Left to call your own
I wanna destroy you I wanna destroy you Wanna destroy you Wanna destroy you Wanna destroy you
