I've been commissioned by my dear eldest sister to create the play list for her wedding reception in September of 2011. So, instead of doing the Top 10 of 2010, I decided to look into the future and think about the music from our past that will continue to influence our future, whether we like it or not.
I am sharing a mix of songs that I would like played at my... er... an important event in my life. If I were thirteen and jewish these songs would be played at my Bat Mitzvah, if I was fifteen and Spanish these songs would make an appearance at my La Quinceanera, or if I was forty and crying because my fiance hit his peak and died off already, I'd hope these were played at his funeral (that's a joke). Right. Here it is:
1. Ray LaMontagne- You are the Best Thing
2. Madonna- Crazy For You
3. Ottis Redding- These Arms Are Mine
4. Karen-O- L-O-V-E
5. The Black Keys- Tighten Up
6. Band of Horses- Marry Song
7. Grizzly Bear- Knife
8. Neil Young- Harvest Moon
9. Peter, Bjorn, and John- Young Folks
10. Broken Social Scene- Lover's Spit
11. Simon & Garfunkel-Bridge Over Troubled Waters
12. Mazzy Star- Fade Into You
Obviously a 12-song mix isn't long enough to entertain a full reception, Bat Mitzvah, LaQuinceanera, or funeral so, you guessed it, there will be version 2.0 very shortly. It's the least I can do for being late on December's post (don't hate me, Ashley).
