      I tend to enjoy Velvet Underground, Pere Ubu, Ramones, Soft Boys, Headcoats and 50s Spector-ish girl groups on my perambulations. Depends on my mood.

      When my other half lived in London my favourite album for getting from Kings Cross to where she lived was The Monks 'Black monk time', perfect for pushing through a crowded London on a Friday afternoon!

       -just remembered listening to this on a neon yellow sony walkman on my way to this chic-who-never-ended-up-being-my-true-love house! hah!


      Anyhow, I found myself pondering this question A LOT this morning, trying to come up with the perfect playlist song-by-song. I came to the conclusion that there are several variables to be taken into account - whether it's a brisk sunny morning and you're on your way to the gym or the beach, a grey afternoon and you're stuck in the after work traffic, of if it's a cool evening stroll, destination unknown. To me, the answer would be drastically different on each occasion.


      But, based on the commute this morning (it was a bit chilly but sunny outside), I would have to say that in the ideal situation I would've:

      - started off with some good ole 70s/80s power pop, as that tender, not-quite-awake-yet state of being calls for some sweet, up-beat melodies (btw, I consider it important not to put the music on before stepping out of the door, but preferably just as you breath in the first of the fresh morning air):

      POINTED STICKS - PART OF THE NOISE

      THE RUBINOOS - I WANNA BE YOUR BOYFRIEND

      THE LIMIT - UH OH

      - then, around the time I got on the bus, feeling energized and positive, I'd crank it up a notch, and the person sitting next to me would just have to deal with my lip-syncin'-head-boppin'-eyes-closed demeanor:

      RADIO BIRDMAN - MURDER CITY NIGHTS

      THE KIDS - THIS IS ROCK 'N ROLL

      PAGANS - WHAT'S THIS SHIT CALLED LOVE?

      SWEATMASTER - ANIMAL

      - finally, getting off the bus and taking the short walk to the office, I would pull out all guns and yank my neck like crazy with my fists in the air, parading my armpits to everyone present:

      TEENGENERATE - DRESSED IN BLACK

      THE REATARDS - TEENAGE HATE

      OBLIVIANS - CHRISTINA

      Then, when I got to work I'd be like "What? Those stats don't add up? That meeting's been cancelled? We're going bankrupt? SO THE FUCK WHAT, BRING THE MOFO ON! I'M READY! YEEEEEEEAAAAOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      (Holy shit - I really gotta try this out one of these mornin's...)

      I used to think it was "Where the beer cans shine". Is'nt it "Real o - mind"?
       Believe it or not , I have an old 16  WITH THE LYRICS to "Down on The Street" and a pic of IG with his dog collar !

      My favotite song to start out down the street with my ipod (I listen to tapes on my Walkman more often , if anything , these days.) is "I Don't Believe in Anything" by The Nevebreakers. Mainly because it's the first song of theirs that turns up , but , also , it's a good one to face the hordes out on the street with....

      While I'm walking down the street? Usually it's whatever song is playing in my head at the time.
