Compile Your Own Soundtrack

[The Gentleman Scamp]

The brief:

You have fifteen tracks to put on a cd which have to reflect your last twelve months in Thailand.

You have a compilation of your favourite Thai music but this will be a compilation of the farang music you have enjoyed the most in recent months and it is the music that you chose at the time as a soundtrack to your life, not your top fifteen tracks of all time neither your desert island compilation.

Here's my fifteen...

FOOLS GARDEN - Lemon Tree

MORRISSEY - The World Is Full Of Crashing Bores

SMASHMOUTH - Holiday In My Head

DAVID BOWIE - Oh You Pretty Things!

AIR - Alpha Beta Gaga

THE VAPOURS - Turning Japanese

JET - Lazy Gun

FATBOY SLIM - The Journey

FRANZ FERDINAND - Matinee

TERRY JACKS - Seasons In The Sun

BECK - Deadweight

SUPERTRAMP - Goodbye Stranger

CHUMBAWAMBA - We Don’t Go To God’s House Anymore

SCISSOR SISTERS - Better Luck

JAMIE CALLUM - Wind Cries Mary

Obviously you don't have to choose overplayed songs that remind you of certain memories but you have to choose your tracklisting as if it were a selection to be played to the public on a radio show.

Try to resist the temptation of compiling a list that reflects your favourite artists for the sake of showing fellow members how versatile your record collection is and concentrate on what was available at the time.

I have missed out a Nancy Sinatra track because I don't know the proper title, and for the same reason I can't do my Thai list because I'm not clever enough.

I have to go now, I've things to be getting on with but I'll pop by later to see how you're all getting on.

Too many instructions. How about Simon and Garfunkle, The Sounds of Silence. Or How about Warren Zevon, Exciteable Boy....I don't have a clue as to what you are talking about. How about Bob Dylan, Maggie's Farm. And this ones just for you Bob Dylan, Rainey Day Woman.
