And so.... Here we are at the end of the year, with what looks like to be the final music blog. However- we will be back next year if there is enough popular demand. The music never stops, so why should this blog?
Heroes
By David Bowie
Aka The Thin White Duke Aka Starman Aka Ziggy Stardust. Bowie is a justifiable legend. If the music scene was like some kind of fantastical far away land, David Bowie would be some kind of rare beast. Like a Unicorn. NO!.. Like King of the Unicorns. David Bowie is the Supreme commander of all Unicorn kind.
This song has been covered many a time, but the original is still the best. It's also something of a karaoke staple, so it really gets my goat when they don't have it available to sing.
Spanish Castle Magic
By Jimi Hendrix
In this ficitonal far-away land, Jimi Hedrix would be a wandering minstrel with an enchanted loot wandering from town to town and casting spells on himself to get high. Eventually he'd cast sleep on himself too many times and wind up dead. Then his bust german wench would commit suicide. This isn't a happy fantasy land...
This song is for screaming out the window while hurtling down the highway on a roadtrip... Or sitting in your room.
Quinn The Eskimo
By Bob Dylan
Bob Dylan would be a drunk dwarf. And be followed around by his posse of similarly drunk dwarves.
Best drunken sing-along chorus ever.
Super Bonus Modern Classic:
Paranoid Android
By Radiohead
Radiohead would be like scientists, holed up in thier technofortress trying to kill magic because they don't fit into a magical based world.
If they created a nation of sentient robots and then attempted to invade the fantasy world, this would be their anthem.
