Have you ever had one of those songs that gets stuck in your head for days…weeks…years? Sure you have. These are the songs that always make the cut. The songs on repeat. We all have them. I have a ton. Welcome back to Endless Loop.
“Atmosphere” by Joy Division
Every now and then, I find myself caught up in music fan ephemera and hypotheticals. Top Fives, desert-island-discs, ultimate supergroups, that sort of thing. It’s okay, it happens to the best of us. Lately, I’ve been dwelling on the notion of desert-island-discographies, wherein you get to take the complete works of five different artists with you to your imaginary desert island. And you get everything too: every album, every single, every B-side, rarity, live recording, collaboration, demo, bootleg, and so on. The whole enchilada or whatever. Who would you choose? Who would I choose for that matter?
