    The Friday Five: May 13, 2011

    Friday Five

    Friday Five : ‘frī-(,)dā,-dē ‘fīv : On the sixth day of every week, I hit the shuffle button on my iTunes, then share the first five tracks and thought for each track. Sometimes there is a playlist involved, occasionally we’ll have a guest, but most of the time it’s just me. The rest is up to you, our friends and readers! Fire up your media player of choice and share the first five random track of your shuffle in the comments.

    The Five:

    “One Way or Another” by Blondie (from Just Can’t Get Enough: New Wave Hits of the ‘80s, Volume 1, 1994)

    I don’t begrudge any artist making a few bucks via licensing, but I swear, if I have to hear “One Way or Another” one more time…

    “Heaven” by Warrant (from Dirty Rotten Filthy Stinking Rich, 1989)

    Oh, goodness. I’d hang my head in shame, if it weren’t for the fact that I still kind of like this song.

    “Take Me Home” by Phil Collins (from No Jacket Required, 1985)

    iTunes seems to be in a mood today, eh?

    “Space (acoustic remix)” by Prince (from Space,  1994)

    Originally from Prince’s Come, I actually prefer this stripped down version to the one that is featured on the record. Looking back, Come is a quality album.

    “March of the Pigs” by Nine Inch Nails (from March of the Pigs, 1994)

    Well, that is one hell of a way to wrap up this week’s five.

    What’s on your shuffle today?
