Hello Everyone- I'm just posting to ask for advice, and possibly to start a conversation. I'm compiling a list of the most approachable B+S songs. I may finally be able to answer the time old question, "What kind of music do you listen to?," without scaring people off ("Oh...it's...ah....er, interesting, yeah"). Almost, if you will, a greatest hits. So far: Expectations My Wandering Days are Over (I'm not sure) Lazy Line Painter Jane The State That I Am in Le Pastie de la Bourgeoisie (maybe at the end, for the strongest of the weak people) Me and the Major The Boy with the Arab Strap (I know my friends won't understand it, I am barely able to. The Boy W/ the strap is one of Struan's friends, right?) Don't Leave the Light on, Baby (especially the "It's been a bloody stupid day") That is it so far. You may be asking yourself, "Self...it looks like he has gotten the list, so why is he posting?" I know that I have become too partial to know which songs are the most approachable. If any of you have any stories/suggestions on which were your favorite songs at first listen, please post. Thanks Farewell Miles P.S.- This is the young, American boy talking, not the B+S fan. I'm interested in getting a cd by The Magnetic Fields, and I don't know where to begin. Which one should I get first? ----------------------------------------------- FREE!
