ANTHEM!!!
Somebody should start a band that just covers indie-rock-type anthems. The older I get the more I use rock shows as personal pep rallies. I go, I get hopped up, I remember how much I love life, I return to said life more energized. Just like a pep rally.
I’m not gonna learn to play an instrument (or sing) just so’s I can start this band, so somebody’s gonna have to do it for me.
Please comment with song suggestions. I’ll get us started:
“Cut Your Hair” – Pavement
“Loser” – Beck
“Cannonball” – The Breeders
“I Wanna Be Your Joey Ramone” – Sleater Kinney
“Now We Can See” – The Thermals
“The Eye of the Tiger Applies to Everything” – Superhopper
“No Lucifer”/”Waving Flags” (medley?) – British Sea Power
“Vamos” – The Pixies
“Bang Bang Rock & Roll” – Art Brut
And, duh…
“Tally Ho” – The Clean
“Blitzkrieg Bop” – Ramones
“Pill Popper Parts 1 & 2” – The Oblivians
Ok. Must. Stop. Now. Your turn…
