Reelin' in the Years - song titles of the 20th century

Image
       I did music for time of day, days of the week and months of the year, so it probably comes as no surprise that this week's music is years. I narrowed it down to the twentieth century. Some songs came to me right away; others took some time to decide. I couldn't choose between David Bowie's song of "1984" based on Orwell's book or Van Halen's opening number from the album of the same name, so I skipped it and went for different years instead.  You can hear my choices here:  Reelin' in the Years - YouTube

ED -soundtrack to the first season

Image
       Last week I talked about the television series ED . I mentioned one of the reasons it wasn't available on home video was music rights, which means we also never got a soundtrack. A lot of great songs from the late 90s/2000 and some classics were featured in the show, including "Next Year" by the Foo Fighters, which was used as the theme song. The Stuckey Bowl logo on the back I found online was made by Adrian Olivia. Listen to the songs from the past here: ED soundtrack season 1 - YouTube
