"Xmas Curtain" MMJ

I've taken an interest in disk #2 of Okonokos after watching the DVD, so this morning I clicked on track #4 to start my day. Sorry, maybe a different groop tomorrow.

Forgot to mention how this is a great idea for a thread.  I always have difficulty choosing the perfect song to start the day.  Gotta set the tone right, you know?

Today:  Phish-Meat
 

If this song made you start this thread, I wouldnt be surprised. I rarely to never listened to Phish the last 4-5 years before they announced the comeback, but one hungover morn I put on a show with Meat, and it made my day, while complaints from apartment neighbors ensued.

Dont remember if it was just Meat, but I do remember texting a few friends "If I had a host of ghosts, living on my street.." and they replied something to the degree of "hell yeah" or the ensuing lyrics.

Great idea for a thread, but personally Im too rushed in the morn to put on tuneage almost always. I'll def read other people morning tunes though

First song, Mother's Little Helper. Wasn't  by choice. Some guy at work had the radio on. I lucked out, as far as first songs go. After all, it could have been Foreigner.

So true!

I probably would've posted that in the "Musical Crimes" thread. I didn't realize how important the first song is. Man have I been missing out.

I live by a code, if the atrocious Top 40 Station (i.e. we play 10 songs and only 10 and play them on a continious loop) is playing that horrible Kid Rock/Sheryl Crow song from a few years ago on my cube neighbor's radio when I get in at 7 I get up and leave. Or I get up and got hit someone. Both have happened

Most mornings I put on music right after I get out of the shower as I get ready for work, and the song I start off with more often than not is "The Power of Love" by Huey Lewis & the News.  It's not to be funny or ironic or anything, it is just an almost perfect song to start off your day.  Try it out sometime, you'll see what I mean.
