Mental MP3

Mental MP3 - Your Soundtrack to Cycling

I dont want a discussion on whether you should or should not us an MP3 while riding, but if your like me and there is nothing pressing to mull over I have a mental soundtrack that seems to repeat in my head, this varies depending on mood and speed etc but a few songs keep popping up.

Currently its

1. Audioslave - Shadow On The Sun
2. Jimi Hendrix - Cross Town Traffic
3. Elbow - One Day Like This

These are not my favourite songs of all time or part of my top 5 desert island tracks but seem to have emmerged as my mental cycling soundtrack!

Anyone else do the same? If so what are they?

My all-time fave has to be...

The Clash - [Sandinista! Disc 2 #17] Career Opportunities

Especially on the ride home from work

No one? maybe I am just mental and have an MP3 player suck on a 3 song loop wedged inside my noggin?

Or maybe this type of post has been done to death?

Hmmm I do have songs go through my head, but I can't remember what songs they are! Usually very odd songs though! However when you are really pushing yourself through the paces, I don't find this MP3 mode useful

It is funny that when being bollocked/told off, usually all that you can hear is "Just a spoon full of sugar makes the medicine go round".... funny stuff this music malarky

 

[John the Monkey]

Jean Narcy - "Bravo Eddy!"
Henkie - "De Fiets Van Piet Van Pa"
Holdstock and MacLeod - "Mars For Evermore"
Superpowerless - "Robots Need Love Too"
Todd Snider - "Enjoy Yourself (It's later than you think)"

Billy Idol - Rebel Yell Takes a while sometimes to get the bloody song out of my head

 

[Crackle]

None but I can measure a mile by reciting the lyrics to Bat Out of Hell whilst mentally playing the music in my head; howzat?

That is something to be proud of!

I had 'help me somebody' from the My life in the bush of ghosts this morning

My brain always seems to default to "Sunny Side of the Street".

I often wake up with a tune stuck in my head. It seems to have been the soundtrack to what I was dreaming.

 

[FBOAB]

"I'm happy" - Ivor Cutler. Been there since I was about ten when my brother used to sing it around the house. Until it appeared as the sig tune to something on BBC I never knew what it was but round my head it went, all those years...

 

[Kovu]

I always seem to have Cash's 'Folsom Prision' or 'Ring of Fire' going round in my head.
