Different music for different situations and activities

A Thousand Threads · 01.11.2007, 08:26 AM

I thought it would be a nice idea to start a thread where everybody
posts the perfect music for different situations.

so i´m gonna start it off with some examples

nice tunes for sitting on the toilet
Serge Gainsbourg - brings the right romantic into this very special situation

music to walk through town at night
Melt Banana - Outro for Cell Scaped - it gives me that feeling that there could be an alien invasion after every corner

music for taking a shower
Sonics - Boom - whoo, i dance and have a private party under the shower, " cuz she´s a witch"

music for driving in the car
Einstürzende Neubauten - Zeichnungen des Patione O.T. - prevents car crashes, that´s a fact

your turn

Boiling collard greens with hog jowl
Back At The Chicken Shack - The Incredible Jimmy Smith

Listening to music
