Bruce Springsteen - Out In The Street
I work five days a week girl
Loading crates down on the dock
I take my hard earned money
And meet my girl down on the block
And Monday when the foreman calls time
I've already got Friday on my mind
When that whistle blows
Girl, I'm down the street
I'm home, I'm out of my work clothes....
Bruce Springsteen - All That Heaven Will Allow
Say hey there mister bouncer
now all I wanna do is dance
But I swear I left my wallet
back home in my workin' pants
C'mon Slim slip me in man
I'll make it up to you somehow
I can't be late I got a date
with all that heaven will allow
Out In The Street is a live favourite though. Bruce at his best.....

David Gray Sail Away
though the sailing season is soon over. He's had a good innings this summer.
Mustn't forget these ones for anyone listening on a more than casual basis (as if, captain obvious):
T Rex GET IT ON
or
The Carpenters Yesterday Once More
It's not my only pastime. See, once I'm done with the banality of my mediocre daytime existence, there's always bathtime to liven things up:
Cockney Rejects I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles
followed closely by:
The Pretenders I Go To Sleep
then, if I'm lucky:
Crowded House Don't Dream It's Over
If someone had written a song about sewing, painting, decorating, making jewelery, cooking, playing netball, spending time with friends and family, taking the dog for walks and annoying strangers on the internets, I'd have asked for that, too.

THURSDAY
Well the room is full, it's a Friday night
We all want to hear "Louie Louie"
It's been a long, hard day and a long, hard life
And this is how we make it through it...
'Honky Tonk America' - Sammy Kershaw

It's a hot night, the natives are restless
We're sweating by the light of the moon
There's a voodoo mojo brewing at the go-go
(its no really like that, but some like to think so)
BTW, Norrie. Of that list of up and coming Rio gigs, we`re not going to any of them. My son has opted for the aforesaid Bon Jovi on Oct 8th at the Samba Drome (Sambodromo )

I might stop in
At The Library (Green Day) and gather up between
Six and Seven Books (Toots and the Maytals) then I'll head home for some
Chicken Fried (Zac Brown Band), catch up on
The News (Jack Johnson) and as Glen says,
Listen to the Music on Get it On.
Then I'm off out the door and
I'm Walking (Fats Domino), and if it's December,
Walking in the Dark (The Boy Who Trapped The Sun).
Later I might do some of my Gaelic
³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖwork (Robben Ford) or the
Crossword (Jethro Tull) or maybe I'll watch one of my favourite films, like
Shenandoah (Van Morrison), perhaps eat a wee piece of
Chocolate (Snow Patrol). By now it's late and
I'm Going Upstairs (John Lee Hooker), but sadly without
Tom Petty to sing We're Alright For Now
Goonight baby, Unfurrow your brow
And I know I love you
We're alright for now

As youse all know, I'm a huge Jack Bruce fan.I'd like to hear:

* Miss Jane/Jane and Barton/Opus III - It's a Fine Day
3 different variants of essentially the same track, listed as 3 separate artists
* Marillion - Garden Party
Maybe a wee bit too long (and a big bit too cynical)
* Lennon - I'm Stepping Out
QI Captain Obvious Klaxon for:
* Van Morrison - Moondance
*Big* second to MfS's
* Nick Drake - When the Day is Done
Actually, any Nick Drake would do - it's all mellow and after work-y
