  1. The #FridayNightJukebox is spinning songs about #MarketsAndFairs, and that makes me wanna go to the carnival!

    Bikini Kill, "Carnival" (1992) youtu.be/w4hEbGlrxqw

    "This is a song about the seedy underbelly of the carnival
    The part that only the kids know about
    This is a song about the 16-year-old girls giving carnies head
    For free rides and hits of pot.
    I wanna go…"

  2. I am not going to participate in this week #FridayNightJukebox #JukeboxFridayNight #AllThatJazz because I would be up all night.

    Happy Birthday, Miles Davis (26th May) and RIP Sonny Rollins

    And go listen to some Nina Simone. There is always an appropriate Nina Simone song.

    Love you all

  3. A couple of months back I dragged this tune back into circulation from the back of my music library:

    Robert Gillies - City Man

    Well worth a listen!

  4. "On waves of love my heart is breaking
    And stranger still, my self control I can't rely on anymore
    New tide, surprise, my world is changing
    Within this frame an ocean swells behind the smile, I know it well

    Beneath a lover's moon I'm waiting
    I am the pilot of the storm, adrift in pleasure I may drown
    I built this ship, it is my making
    And furthermore, my self control I can't rely on anymore

    I know why
    I know why

    Crazy on a ship of fools
    Crazy on a ship of fools
    Turn this boat around, back to my loving ground
    Oh, no, oh, no

    Who claims that no man is an island?
    While I land up in jeopardy, more distant from you by degrees
    I walk this shore in isolation
    And at my feet eternity draws ever sweeter plans for me

    I know why
    I know why

    Crazy on a ship of fools
    Ah, crazy on a ship of fools
    Turn this boat around, back to my loving ground
    Oh, no, oh, no, ship of fools

    Turn this boat around, back to my loving ground
    Oh, no
    Crazy on a ship of fools
    Oh, crazy on a ship of fools
    Turn this boat around, back to my loving ground
    Oh, no, oh, no, ship of fools"

  5. Another of my favorite silly love songs...

    "Oh, you're the first one
    When things turn out bad
    You know I'll never be lonely
    You're my only one
    And I love the things
    I really love the things that you do
    Oh, you're my best friend"

  6. "And we mean to go on, and on, and on and on

    We are the champions, my friends
    And we'll keep on fighting till the end
    We are the champions, we are the champions
    No time for losers, 'cause we are the champions of the world"

  7. "Buddy, you're a young man, hard man
    Shouting in the street, gonna take on the world someday
    You got blood on your face, you big disgrace
    Waving your banner all over the place

    We will, we will rock you, sing it, oh
    We will, we will rock you"

  8. Ohio

    "Tin soldiers and Nixon's comin'
    We're finally on our own
    This summer I hear the drummin'
    Four dead in Ohio

    Gotta get down to it
    Soldiers are gunning us down
    Should have been done long ago
    What if you knew her and
    Found her dead on the ground?
    How can you run when you know?

    Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
    Na-na-na-na, na-na-na
    Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na
    Na-na-na-na, na-na-na

    Gotta get down to it
    Soldiers are cutting us down
    Should have been done long ago
    What if you knew her and
    Found her dead on the ground?
    How can you run when you know?

    Tin soldiers and Nixon's comin'
    We're finally on our own
    This summer I hear the drummin'
    Four dead in Ohio"

  9. One of my favorite love songs of all time... I used to sing it acapella to my vrai amour when we danced beneath the moonlight.

    #HarvestMoon

    "Come a little bit closer
    Hear what I have to say

    Just like children sleepin'
    We could dream this night away

    But there's a full moon risin'
    Let's go dancin' in the light

    We know where the music's playin'
    Let's go out and feel the night

    Because I'm still in love with you
    I wanna see you dance again
    Because I'm still in love with you
    On this harvest moon

    When we were strangers
    I watched you from afar

    When we were lovers
    I loved you with all my heart

    But now it's gettin' late
    And the moon is climbin' high

    I want to celebrate
    See it shinin' in your eye

    Because I'm still in love with you
    I wanna see you dance again
    Because I'm still in love with you
    On this harvest moon

    Because I'm still in love with you
    I wanna see you dance again
    Because I'm still in love with you
    On this harvest moon"

  10. The Warriors
    by #SnottyNoseRezKids

    "I don't rock 'n' roll, nah, I stand and rock (Standin' Rock, yi)
    I think there's something in the water, here's some food for thought
    Is it really a felony for wanting my water clean?
    Expect us not to rage against the machine
    We ain't movin' like Rosa P, nope
    You know why, 'cause this dreamcatcher's catchin' your pipe dream
    Look what happened to Flint
    No disrespect, but the same happens to village kids that sip water from the tap
    And they're dyin' to live from the cancer it gives
    Where's the state of emergency for them?
    Act like you know the story
    Broken treaties, unholy matrimony
    One nation under the creator, homie
    All my relations, mni wiconi"

  11. "Wooden soldiers storm through burning, buildings on the top floor
    Lives the zoo king's neckties, preventing them from breathing
    Oh, it's such a fuzzy feeling
    Oh, it's such a fuzzy feeling making plans"

    -- #ModestMouse, from 2021's The Golden Casket.

  12. This is one of my favorite #ModestMouse songs. I haven't heard them perform it since 2005! So needed!

    "Woke up this morning, and it seemed to me
    That every night turns out to be
    A little bit more like Bukowski
    And yeah, I know he's a pretty good read
    But God, who'd wanna be
    God, who'd wanna be such an asshole
    God, who'd wanna be
    God, who'd wanna be such an asshole..."

  13. "A wild pack of family dogs came runnin' through the yard one day
    My father got his gun, shot it up, they ran away ok
    A wild pack of family dogs came runnin' through the yard
    And as my own dog ran away with
    them, I didn't say much of anything at all
    A wild pack of family dogs came runnin' through the yard
    As my little sister played, the dogs took her away
    And I guess she was eaten up ok, yeah she was eaten up ok
    My mother's cryin' blood dust now
    My dad he quit his job today, well I guess he was fired but that's ok
    And I'm sittin' outside my mudlake,
    waiting for the pack to take me away
    And right after I die the dogs
    start floating up towards the glowing sky
    Now they'll receive their rewards, now they will receive their rewards"

    - #ModestMouse, Wild Pack of Family Dogs, from 2001's "The Moon and Antarctica".

  14. "'Cause it's night on the sun
    You're hopelessly hopeless
    I hope so, for you
    Well, there's one thing
    To know about this town
    It's five hundred miles underground
    And that's alright, that's alright
    Well, there's one thing
    To know about this globe
    It's bound and it's willing to explode
    And that's alright, that's alright
    That's alright, that's alright
    Well, there's one thing
    To know about this town
    Not a person doesn't
    Want me underground
    That's alright, that's alright
    That's alright
    There's one thing
    To know about this town
    It's five hundred miles underground
    And that's okay
    That's alright, that's alright
    There's one thing
    To know about this earth
    We're put here just to make more dirt
    And that's okay
    That's alright, that's alright
    Well, there's one thing
    To know about this globe
    It's bound and it's willing to explode
    And that's okay
    That's alright, that's alright
    There's one thing
    To know about this town
    It's five hundred miles underground
    And that's okay
    That's alright, that's alright..."
