My Shortlist for Space and Time

I recall saying that my shortlist for Space and Time songs made an excellent playlist in itself (to my mind anyway) ... well whilst I'm sat listening to my possible songs for 'Injustice' I thought I might as well share it.

Black Eyed Boy - Texas - contains the phrase 'you're all space and time' and was the song that immediately sprung to mind when the theme was announced.

1 o'clock - Space - A personal favourite - it is about a time and from a band called 'Space' - could there be a better fit for the theme?

Time - Pink Floyd - too long to be submitted, but had to be on there.

Biding My Time - Pink Floyd - I was introduced to this before I knew much Pink Floyd and asked to guess who the band was - it wasn't until the scorching guitar at the end that I realised it was Pink Floyd - a great track and a builder - would have been right up Mick's street as it has a strong blues element to it, and I tried my best to persuade him to use it instead of 'Set the Controls ...'

The Ground Walks With Time In A Box - Modest Mouse - this again was just too long, but is a very catchy track - I'd love for people to give it a listen.

High Time - The Icicle Works - An old favourite, but I don't think it was ever going to make it on to the CD.

Killing Time - Me - My favourite of my own songs, and about a black hole. I didn't have the bottle to put it up alongside everyone else's great tracks.

There Comes A Time - Martin Stephenson - One of my favourites of his songs - and it would have been fairly appropriate as he made an appearance at the Brothers Arms for an Extra-Ordinary First Thursday.

Time Flies - Porcupine Tree - again too long - perhaps Franck and Pete H (maybe Mick L) would have appreciated it. Howard has heard it before.

Time Of My Life - Toploader - another personal favourite.

Hello Earth - Kate Bush - a great song from a great album - was perhaps a bit too mellow.

Planet Sizes - Steve Mason - I loved this song when Neil introduced it in one of the collaborative playlists we drew up for www.whatswrongwiththemainstream.blogspot.co.uk (which probably holds the secrets to many of my song selections) I was pleased that Neil didn't put it the CD on as it meant I could.

The Killing Moon - Echo and The Bunnymen- what a track. Came close to being a selection, but I just thought it was maybe a bit too well-known.

Spaceman - The Killers - good but not really a contender for selection.

Planet Earth - Duran Duran - an old favourite - we used to play it in our band, but have dropped it now.

Round The Universe - Seahorses - another great song

Comets - Fanfarlo - A good song, but not one my favourite Fanfarlo songs.

CD 13 - Launch

Pete Q and Bob have put their heads together and come up with the theme for the next CD, and it is to be ... Injustice. I think Pete is hoping that people will dip into the pool of protest songs and come up with a CD which is personally tailored to his tastes. What we end up with remains to be seen.

We have until the end of November to come up with our respective contributions. There is no time limit as such, but there may have to be a bit of butchering going on if everyone puts in an epic.

Happy choosing.

12elativity - Results

The results are in, we have a winner … and we have another winner.

Congratulations to Pete Q and Bob who each scored 101 points. I think we will have a recount – can you all please check the spreadsheet to make sure I’ve copied your votes across accurately? I have been known to make mistakes in the past.

If Pete and Bob are actually joint winners, I will leave it to the both of them to come up with a theme for the next CD together by whatever means they deem fit.

The results of who put on what and what they scored are summarised below (the full results sheet is attached of course).

15	Out Of Space	The Prodigy	Jim	52
16	Starlight	Muse	Howard	78
17	Forever	HAIM	Rob	53

The wooden spoon goes, of course, to Mick, although he did actually get some points and doesn’t quite get to claim the ‘Why did you even bother?’ award.

The master of guessing who chose what was Pete Hodgson with an unnatural 10/17.

The masters of disguise this time were Allan, Fran, Bob and Howard, whilst the person picked out the most (9 times!) was TechnoJim. I am reminded of a line from The Young Ones: I’m not saying Jim was predictable, but there are as-of-yet undiscovered tribes in the heart of the Peruvian jungle who knew you were going to say that

I think that will do for the analysis – I was going to try to come up with an index to reflect how well a person’s votes matched the final scores, but maybe that’s going a bit far … then again …

Thanks all for your contributions to another great CD – I think we may try to get the next one produced before Christmas … watch this space.

Cheers

Chris

12elativity Track Listing

Weclome to "12elativity", our collection of songs on Space and Time. Again, the CD is a bit of a narrative. It begins Right Here, Right Now, so Don't Stop Me Now and Let's Go! "Good Riddance" some might say. Having Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun our intrepid Space Cowboy begins to Zoom on his journey of the solar system. Armed with his knowledge of Planet Sizes he navigates to a well-known Satellite. Catching sight during a penumbral lunar eclipse of the Low Red Moon, he finds himself wondering about red celestial bodies and ponders if there was ever Life on Mars? Is there still? Is it Like Today back home? Would he ever meet a Girl From Mars? All this conjecture has left him inattentive and he's ran out of fuel and is doomed to drift Out Of Space as we know it until all that can be perceived of the Solar System is Starlight. Forever.
