It will obviously be CATS
(dogs will get their own post - to pee against- in the future)

ReplyDeleteShane, you might like this Flying Nun classic by Look blue, go purple: cactus catFilmed on Mount Cargill, Dunedin- I would have been in my last year of school then.
ReplyDeleteEverybody wants to be a cat,
ReplyDeletebecause a cat's the only cat
who knows where it's at.
Everybody's pickin' up on that feline beat,
'cause everything else is obsolete.
I can't get Cactus Cat to play!
ReplyDeleteI'm intrigued because I only have 2 songs in my Cactus playlist so far!
Aba.. there's me thinking Smelly cat or top cat would be up first!
sophistiCATion that's what we like.

ReplyDeletesteen, good call.. I was expecting Nelly McKay first from you.
see you all later.
Cool For Cats - Squeeze (I know it's not really about felines but what the hey!)
ReplyDeleteFarmyard Cat - Prefab Sprout - probably my least favourite Sprout track but then, that's a bit like saying my least favourite Everton goal...
The High Llamas (well, actually Sean O'Hagan) have (has) a track with the wonderful name of Half Face Cat.
And we certainly can't ignore Sufjan Steven's The Year Of The Asthmatic Cat - but then why would we want to?
"Take Meow" - Franz Ferdinand.
ReplyDeleteOr the Libertines classic - "Can't Stand Meow"
ReplyDeleteThere is a court order preventing me from mentioning a Mnemonic fave tune, I'm afraid!
ReplyDeleteOh, and obviously my recent post of Anouar Brahem's Le Pas du Chat Noir
ReplyDeleteDonds for Herr Hachi's Aristocats!
ReplyDeletePussyface - his copeness
ReplyDeleteAll Cats Are Grey - fat bob
Cat People - Bowie
Stray cat strut
Cat Power - when she's not doing bad covers
The Family Cat - did some good stuff while they lasted
Pussy Cat Dues, Charles Mingus - who once taught his cat to use the toilet...
ReplyDeleteDave Evans - Lady Portia (his cat) I can only remember snippets and sprog is preventing access to the CD collection so here are some bits:
ReplyDelete"Oh my Lady Portia
You're the praise of all his nights
And all his days
Where have you been?
...You put the warm light in his eyes
With your loving...
Only you can take his midnight
And in the morning make him whole again..."
Too much distraction to recall the words but it's a great song!
Oh, and Black Dog (Nick Drake) - of course.
ReplyDeleteNothing to do with cats (oh, alright, Black Cat by Broadcast, who are apparently working on a new album), but…
ReplyDeletePublic service announcement: there's a handful of tickets – about a dozen – left for David Byrne at the Barbican. Just in case anyone is interested…
Th'Legendary Shack Shakers - Creek Cats.Jets To Brazil - Cat Heaven.Janet Jackson - Black Cat. Yes I'm serious; loved that guitar.
ReplyDeleteSimon & Garfunkel - Feline Groovy. No, of course I'm not.
Anyone remember the band Feline? I absolutely loved the song Release; bought the album on the strength of that alone.
I'm too tired for RR tonight; goodnight all.
I've got a Venetian Snares EP called "Songs About My Cats" - I mean there aren't any lyrics , just the usual pummeling tech-step, but it does have song titles like "Fluff Master" and "Bobo".
ReplyDelete....erm....."Purrfect Day" - Lou Reed????
Cat people by Bowie and donds for the aristocats!
