The theme for this week is pop music of the Robyn kind. What is it with Sweden, really? All of the music that comes out of that “terrible, socialist hellhole” is SO good that it’s almost as if they have no idea their lives are terrible, horrible, no good, or very bad. “Dancing On My Own” is flying around the internet this week, and I’ve probably listened to it forty times in the past few days, so let’s use that as the kick-off song for the Random Ten and see what else comes up. What are you listening to this week?
1. Andrew Bird – “Tenuousness”
2. James Taylor – “Enough To Be On Your Way”
3. 10,000 Maniacs – “I’m Not The Man”
4. Annie Lennox – “Why”
5. The Big Pink – “Too Young To Love”
6. Beyoncé – “Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)”
7. Janet Jackson – “Escapade”
8. The Flaming Lips – “The Sound of Failure”
9. The Cure – “Taking Off”
10. Alanis Morissette – “Still”
Wow. Lots of pop music in that mix. More videos after the jump.
