Friday and the Random 10 (Birthday Edition)

It's my birthday! It's my birthday! No really, it actually is my birthday and the best part of the whole thing? Friday the 13th! I get lucky from time to time from being born on the 13th (at some point I am going to have to go back and check to see how many of my birthdays have been on a Friday...)

13 songs because, 13.

Exile Island remains free and clear so far. No one exiled yet. And as usual, the rules and whatnot are up there ↑ at the top near the home tab.

Triskaidekaphobics unite!

1) Jimmy Buffett/Barefoot Children (Meet Me in Margaritaville) - Not how I was hoping to start this countdown.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2) Meg's Garden/Soundtrack (Disney's Hercules) - Background/soundtrack music from Disney's Hercules. The whole scene is so much better than just the music.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3) Badfinger/Without You (The Very Best of Badfinger) - No wait, this is a real band? Actually every time I hear one of their songs I recognize it but didn't know it was them.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4) Damn Yankees/Come Again (Damn Yankees) - Hell to the yeah! Tommy, Jack and the Motor City Madman. This was a kick ass band.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5) Motley Crue/Glitter (Greatest Hits) - No idea, and doesn't even sound like them.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

6) Rick Wakeman/Can You Smell Burning (Retro) - It wouldn't be my birthday without some good ole RW! Apparently making this album he used some keyboard equipment that had been stored away and not used in years. So when they fired them back up and used them, "can you smell burning" was a constantly asked question as some of them shorted out

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

7) Billy Squier/Rock Me Tonight (16 Strokes) - OMG! The one time you are so looking forward to an actual video and it's not there. Yeah, THAT video.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

8) John Mellencamp/Thank You (Words and Music) - Never heard this one before, ditto. Thank you.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

9) Paul McCartney/Goodnight Tonight (All the Best) - This Paul guy might go somewhere some day.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

10) Faith No More/Star A.D. (King For a Day, Fool For a Lifetime) - The weird part is, I copied/pasted from an old post to use as a template. When I went to over-write this part, the exact same song showed up again. Weird.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

STCS) Journey/Happy to Give (Time 3) - Your Honor, Exhibit Q for the Love Song Spiral of Doom©, and why the follow up to Frontiers sucked ass.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

12) Daft Punk/Overture (Discovery) - Meh. Their story is becoming tiresome. So is their music.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

13) The Moody Blues/Gypsy (To Our Children's Children's Children) - Now this is cool.

Stay cool/dry/comfy wherever you are, avoid pumpkin spice flavored anything, be safe, and Roll Tide (yes, even now)!

This is my song and it's playing us out on my birthday.
