5ive Songs for November

The theme of this month's playlist is about the moods brought on by Autumn. Halloween, daylight savings, the election, and a change in the weather all landed within the same week. At least we can be grateful for Thanksgiving.



I'm Only Happy When It Rains (Garbage)
We had our first rain here in L.A. since I don't remember when and no one knows what to do, including me. Amazing how quickly I've become acclimated to the weather in southern California, and I'm not at all happy when it rains.

Black Hole Sun (Steve & Eydie)
Recently heard a Paul Anka album where he does big band versions of rock songs like this Soundgarden favorite. I couldn't find it, so we have this lounge version instead.

Llorando (Rebekah Del Rio)
The opening melody to this Roy Orbison & Joe Melson classic (Crying) is identical to the previous song and thought they'd make a good mashup. This Spanish version is from the David Lynch movie "Mulholland Drive."

Why Can't We Be Friends? (War)
This oldie but goodie takes on a whole new meaning in light of our recent historic presidential election. Listen again and reflect on their awesome wisdom and foresight.

Feelin' Alright (Kyprios)
Gotta end the day on the positive side, in spite of any external circumstances. F-bomb warning for those with delicate hearing.
