Thing in a Book appreciation thread
So, my wife and I had our first child just under three weeks ago.
In the months ahead of her birth, I put together a massive 'chill out' playlist - for times when the baby was fussy, when we were tired etc. It contained all the obvious choices, and some lesser known stuff... and the baby hated it.
Brian Eno's "Music For Airports"? - garbage
"Rockabye Baby" compilations - trash
Bowie instrumentals - what is this filth?
BUT
She absolutely loves LOVES L.O.V.E.S. "Thing in a Book" - can't get enough of "Thing in a Book", put it on replay, 'Uh oh - we've hit the part when the kick drum goes away... that's the signal to make sure you've got the next song cued up ('Thing in a Book' - again).
"Second Hand" - no thank you, it's too short.
We've now listened to 'Thing in a Book" for hours
So what I'm saying is, please Rick & Karl... Please make another "Thing in a Book" -esque track. If not for me, than for my newborn.
...'215 Miles' is "fine", but it's no "Thing in a Book"
