Five of my favourite songs – in no particular order:
1. War Pigs — Black Sabbath
"To remind me why Ozzy is my hero now that the Osbournes are on TV."
2. Don’t let it bring you down — Neil Young
"A perfect example of a string of nonsensical lyrics strung together to create a great song. If you think it does make sense, enjoy the buzz, man!"
3. Mikey Lunt — Slow Nerve Action
"Because it makes me wonder..."
4. Redemption Day — Sheryl Crow
"It’s pretty and political."
5. Mama Don’t Smoke — Bran Van 3000
"As the song says: ‘it helps to keep my blues away.’"
Last words...
"I love a beer buzz early in the morning." — Sheryl Crow
