Turns out, I’m not too much of a meme starter. On Monday, I kicked off Tumblr Classics Week and posted a favorite classic every day. Luke jumped in and here’s what we’ve compiled over the week:
The Cult - She Sells Sanctuary
Joaquin Phoenix & Reese Whiterspoon - Jackson
Shawn Colvin (original by Talking Heads) - This Must Be the Place (Naive Melody)
Next time, I’m trying cats :)
Update: Whit rightly points out that the week’s not over yet and he jumps in with:
Van Halen - Running With The Devil (first song from the first album - awesome)
And Greg was in it yesterday with:
Finally, Daryn’s joins with another sweet one:
Joaquin Phoenix & Reese Whiterspoon - Jackson
Doing two things here: wrapping up the Tumblr Classics week with one of my favorite duets (that being Johnny Cash & June Carter) and at the same time joining the cover Friday gang. Nifty, huh?
Tom Petty - Free Fallin’
This track makes me happy since 1989.
Day 4 in Tumblr Classics.
The Jayhawks - Martin’s Song
Yes. Another favorite. While on tour with Hot Water Music in 2003, we listened to Hollywood Town Hall every day. Several times. This is their best track.
This is Day 3 of Tumblr Classics.
The Cult - She Sells Sanctuary
Day two in the Tumblr Classics week, this time with one of my favorite tracks when going out for a run. Fuel to one’s engines.
See the “rules” here.
Old 97’s - Salome - Too Far To Care
Kicking off a Tumblr Classics Week, I will post a classic track every day starting today. This one’s from 1997. One simple rule: tracks need to be older than 10 years.
If you want in, tag your daily tracks with Tumblr Classics and I’ll post a recap at the end of the week if we get enough songs.
