Bummers

So why not? This is a collection of bummers, downers, and songs about losing out and fucking up. You may not agree, you may have suggestions, feel free to comment. Sorry the rest of the blog sucks. Welcome to my personal web sticky-note. :)

"A Man of Constant Sorrow" by John Hartford from the "O Brother Where Art Thou?" soundtrack
"Substitute," The Who
"Folsom Prison Blues" Johnny Cash
"Midnight Cruiser" Steely Dan
"We've Got Tonight" and "Still the Same" Bob Seger
"Fallin'" De La Soul & Teenage Fanclub from the Judgement Night soundtrack
"Lifetime Piling Up" Talking Heads
"Everyday Struggle" Notorious B.I.G.
"Lost Cause" Beck
"So Far Away" Carole King
"People Are Strange" The Doors
"Somebody That I Used to Know" Elliot Smith
"Soul to Squeeze" Red Hot Chili Peppers
"Fell on Black Days" Soundgarden
"Didn't Think it Would Out Bad" Jon Brion, from the I Heart Huckabees soundtrack
"Running Dry" Neil Young and Crazy Horse
"Take This Bottle" Faith No More
"The Poor Side of Town" Johnny Rivers
"Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me)" Temptations
"Monday Monday" Mamas and the Papas
"Those Were the Days" Mary Hopkin--Perhaps a little over-the-top, but I enjoy it
"Too Little Too Late" Barenaked Ladies
"Worst That Could Happen" The Brooklyn Bridge
"Midnight Cowboy" The harmonica version from the John Barry soundtrack, although the Faith No More version from Angel Dust is more than acceptable as well
"Same Old Song" Four Tops


On a related note, I strongly reccomend "Hats Off to Larry" by Del Shannon and Lynn Anderson's "Rose Garden" for zany-listening purposes. Enjoy.
