Let's put together our November 3d playlist

[Bossy Monkey]

I'd kick it off with Elvin Bishop's Sure Feels Good:
I never seen such a beautiful day
Looks like everything is coming my way
Feel like a bird leavin' a cage
Looks like my luck is gettin' ready to change...

Yours?

7. But my hand was made strong

By the ’and of the almighty.
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly.
Won’t you help to sing
These songs of freedom? -
’cause all I ever have:
Redemption songs;
Redemption songs.

Yeah - good choice :)

[Mister K]

3. I can see clearly now the rain is gone

[Terran]

11. That was my first thought too

"Here comes that rainbow I've been prayin' for.

I'd also vote for Bill Clinton's theme song, "Don't Stop Thinking About Tomorrow".

[Tom Kitten]

8. Help on the Way

Paradise waits
on the crest of a wave
her angels in flame
She has no pain
Like a child, she is pure
She is not to blame

Poised for flight
Wings spread bright
Spring from night
into the sun
Don't stop to run
She can fly like a lie
She cannot be outdone

Tell me the cost
I can pay
Let me go
Tell me love is not lost
Sell everything
Without love, day to day,
insanity is king

I will pay
day by day
anyway
Lock, bolt and key
Crippled but free
I was blind
all the time
I was learning to see

Help on the way
I know only this
I've got you today
Don't fly away
'cause I love what I love
and I want it that way

I will stay
one more day
Like I say
Honey, it's you
Without love in the dream
It will never come true

Follow that up with Supplication:

(Whoo-hoo-hoo) Dizzy ain't the word for the way that you're
Makin' me feel now
(Whoo-hoo-hoo) I need some indication if
All of this is real now
(Whoo-hoo-hoo) I've heard it said there could be something
Wrong in my head, now
(Whoo-hoo-hoo) Could it be infatuation or am I just
Bein' mislead, now
Little bolt of inspiration, right beside me now
Sparkin' my imagination, lightening now
Causin' instant excitation, cause you're frightening now
Come to heed my supplication, got to have it now
My light'nin' too, My light'nin' too

[Ann Arbor Dem]

9. The old Dem favorite....."Happy Days Are Here Again" n/t

[Oscar2000]

10. Nuevos trapos - by Charly Garcia

Daría cualguier cosa por amar
Daría cualquier cosa por poderte dar
un poco más, más de lo que puedo dar
Pero a la vez quiero decirte que
te encargues de tu vida porque yo
no soy mejor que vos
vos no sos mejor que yo

Y aunque cambiemos de lugar las banderas
y aunque cambiemos de color las trincheras
siempre es como la primera vez

Y mientras todo el mundo sigue bailando
se ven dos pibes que aún siguen buscando
encontrarse por primera vez

Habiendo compartido aquel terror
Habiendo convivido en esta desolación total
ya no es necesario más

Y aunque cambiemos de lugar las banderas
y aunque cambiemos de color las trincheras
siempre es como la primera vez

Y mientras todo el mundo sigue bailando
se ven dos pibes que aún siguen buscando
encontrarse por primera vez

12. There's always "Na Na Hey Hey (Kiss Him Goodbye)"

though I suspect we'll leave out the "kiss him" part

[Francine Frensky]

13. Good Riddance (Time of Your LIfe)

Green Day song. Angry, yes, but I like the line "I hope you had the time of your life" and the ominous cello that seems to be saying: God knows what you did, wipe that smirk off your face.
