Five letter words......hmm, I know a lot of 4 letter words, does it count if you add an "s"?

17/8/04

  1. Witch Queen - The Chatoozies
  2. Dress you up - Madonna
  3. Indian Summer Sky - U2
  4. Kiss the Bride - Elton John
  5. Bananarama megamix 89 - Bananarama
  6. Stand Back - Stevie Nicks
  7. The Whole of the Moon - The Waterboys
  8. Five Letter Word - The Numbers
  9. Sunglasses at night - Tiga & Zyntherius

Ok, so I know that Sunglasses at night is a cover but it was such a well done one and recent, I thought it deserved a spot just this once.

Indian Summer Sky was a track on the U2 album The Unforgettable Fire. This is what Bono has said about the song:
"A lot of cities in America are built on civilizations long since buried by the American. A friend of mine, a wise man I know, spent a lot of time within the city -- it was Toronto, so cool and so shiny -- and he felt extremely troubled and torn in two. There had been a lot of massacres of Red Indian people in that area and he felt in some way as if there were troubled spirits still there. What I was trying to get across was a sense of a spirit trapped in a concrete jungle -- something like that. Again these are just glimpses, these songs. A lot of the subject matter is very impressionistic."

Quote has come from this web site.
