As your alotted Nuclear Ferry readies for departure from a dying Earth what music would you take with you for your new life on Mars? Here's my first one: High Flying Bird by Elton John (off Don't Shoot me I'm only the Piano Player LP 1973). Uplifting.
i'd have to have the following:
ReplyDeleteDivinyls - Divinyls
Urban Hymns - The Verve
Song to the Siren - This Mortal Coil
Ghost in the Shell them - Kenji Kawaii
International Velvet - Catatonia
Aerial - Kate Bush
Tuesday Night Music Club - Sheryl Crow
and that would about do it for now!
If I could take one CD I would choose Natural History by Talk Talk.
ReplyDeleteand who could not bring THROW DOWN YOUR SWORD by Wishbone Ash!
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'd just prefer the soothing humming of those mighty thrusters, the interplanetary lullaby... maybe Vespertine by Björk, along with some Ligeti Atmosphères...

Arto, you are a philosospher amongst mere mortals. Maybe one day we'll all be lucky enough to hear Richard Bransons' mighty thrusters on Virgin Galactic 1!
