That Was The Month That Was

An April Playlist

Last time I was the VSS365 prompter I took all the words from pub names in Liverpool or names of hop varieties. This time I went for one of my other loves: music. All the words chosen were from song titles from some of my favourite recording artists. Quite a few of the songs were picked up by some of the VSSers even if they didn't realise all of them were sourced that way - I mean why would you?


April Words


In order that the words came up in April, I suppose your unwitting playlist, the songs were as follows:

‘Run Chicken Run - Felice Brothers
Kicking Television’ - Wilco
‘We Will Rock You’ - Queen
Orange Crush’ - R.E.M.
Classic Cars’ - Bright Eyes
‘Hell is Chrome’ - Wilco
‘Crane Wife’ - Decemberists
‘Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band’ -  Beatles
Telegraph Road’ - Dire Straits
‘Splendid Isolation’ - Warren Zevon
‘Rescue Blues’ - Ryan Adams
Desperado Under the Eaves’ - Warren Zevon
‘Somewhere down the Road’ - Chuck Prophet
Shelter from the Storm’ - Bob Dylan
Tumbling Dice’ - Rolling Stones
Desolation Row’ - Bob Dylan
‘Couldn’t Get Arrested’ - Green On Red
Blue’ - Jayhawks
‘Sullivan Street’ - Counting Crows
‘Smack Dab in the Middle’ - Ry Cooder
Ruby Tuesday’ - Rolling Stones
Radio (Free Europe)’ -  R.E.M.
‘Space Oddity’ - David Bowie
‘The Needle and the Damage Done’ -  Neil Young
Mittens’ - Frank Turner
Heavyweight Champion of the World’ - Reverend & the Makers
Killing Moon’ - Echo & the Bunnymen
‘I am the Resurrection’ - Stone Roses
‘Perfectly Good Guitar’ - John Hiatt
'
Alcoholiday’ - Teenage Fanclub


Not a bad jukebox - if I do say so myself - and not a bad month of VSS writing either. Thanks to all those that got involved and for the kind comments too.

Oh, and if you fancy some background listening while you're writing then I've put the
April Playlist on Spotify. One of my faves ('Somewhere Down the Road') is missing as it's not on Spotify, but all the others are there.
