Well good morning Pixlpeeps and it is back, Blog A Day. Now of course for some like myself I will only take part in this during the week because weekends you don't want to read my randoms. Anyways to kick off BaD I thought I would give you an explanation of what my theme will be. I've always liked to make mixtapes of various songs depending on how I feel and one of them was always a Deserted Island mix. You know, what songs would you have on a tape/CD/iPod/mp3 player if you were stranded for a bit. I thought it would be fun to take 20 songs that I would love to have while waiting on this island before I started talking to a volleyball. So in no particular order let's get started.

 

Day 1 Song

 

Sexy Eyes – Dr. Hook

How could not have a cheesy dated song that couldn't let go of disco yet was in the beginning of the 80s? Let's face it, it is a fun song, catchy, upbeat and besides you're on an island so you can do your funky dance, sing in a falsetto, use random twigs as microphones, and not have the look of shame.

 

 

That's all for now, more tomorrow!

-Chris

You should force your class to listen to it, throw in some extra credit.

I saw Dr. Hook at some festival back in the day. They were all piss drunk and one of their roadies danced around on stage playing a broom through the whole thing.

I like to think the song became stuck in your head for at least a little bit Tongue Out

Oh, I recently got into Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show. I love their first two albums. I want to hear all of them. Shel Silverstein did a lot of lyrics for them. Lots of funny stuff.

Oh nice, I think I just have a Dr. Hook's Greatest Hits album. I don't see much of his other stuff around the local mom & pop. I bet I'd have better luck if I looked around the record section.
