Committed to Consider

If you call your dad he could stop it all …

(The idea here, generally, is an alphabetical list of songs from my iTunes collection. Feel free to compare and contrast with your own list from the same alphabetical range and to let me know, in comments, what’s missing. The list below, for example, does not include “Complicated,” by Avril Lavigne. You might point out this omission, suggesting that my utter lack of anything by Ms. Lavigne represents a serious gap in my record collection and that Robert Smith and Billie Joe shouldn’t have to shoulder the too-much-eyeshadow* burden all by themselves, which might in turn prompt an interesting discussion of “Sk8ter Boi” as a respectable updating of the rock & roll myth of “Rosalita.” That sort of thing.)

“Committed to Parkview,” Porter Wagoner
“Common People,” Pulp
“Computer Blue,” Prince and the Revolution
“Concrete and Barbed Wire,” Lucinda Williams
“Concrete Sky,” Beth Orton
“Condition of the Heart,” Prince and the Revolution
“Confetti,” The Lemonheads
“Conservative Christian, Right Wing Republican, Straight, White, American Males,” Todd Snider
“Consider,” The Choir
“Consider Me Gone,” Sting

* Joan Jett, I would contend, does not wear too much eye eyeshadow. She’s Joan Jett and therefore she wears just enough.
