It’s time for another journey into the mental state of my iPod. This time we will explore its dark side by taking a trip through the playlist called “Something Wicked”, where all selections pertain to something devilish.
As always, I will hit the shuffle button and list the first 20 tunes that pop up.
“Hells Bells” by AC/DC
“Season of the Witch” by Donovan
“Crawlin’ King Snake” by John Lee Hooker
“The Garden of Allah” by Don Henley (Note: This does not mean that Allah is devilish. Within the song, Henley has some great lines as the Devil.)
“Season in Hell” by John Cafferty & The Beaver Brown Band
“The Lords of Salem” by Rob Zombie
“Witchy Woman” by The Eagles
“O Fortuna” by Carl Orff
“(Ghost) Riders in the Sky” by The Outlaws
“Even Trolls Love Rock and Roll” by Tony Joe White
“Highway to Hell” by AC/DC
“Black Magic Woman” by Santana
“Tubular Bells” by City of Prague Philharmonic
“Dark Night” by The Blasters
“Living Dead Girl” by Rob Zombie
“Columbus” Unforgivable Sins” by Peter Buffet
“Go To Hell…” by Wild Bill Hickok and Charlie Utter
“The Devil Went Down to Georgia” by The Charlie Daniels Band
“Bad to the Bone” by George Thorogood
“Memphis Exorcism” by Squirrel Nut Zippers
I had to write this post. I couldn’t help myself. The Devil made me do it.
I’m embarrassed to say that I don’t know many of these songs. You’ve given me some new music to look into. Thanks!
You’re welcome. I hope you like a few of them.
Ann Magnuson – Sex with the Devil
Roky Erickson – If You Have Ghosts
The Cramps – Aloha from Hell
of Montreal – Chrissy Kiss the Corpse
Clutch – The Devil and Me
🙂 You know I had to.
I know you did. I expected it. Aloha from Hell sounds very interesting.
devil’s list… good post. 🙂
Thanks. Songs are usually about love or sin I think.
Or some combination thereof.
This is a great list. But it just seems to me that there should be a Rolling Stones song on here. Paint it Black? No. Start Me Up? Nope. Beast of Burden? Huh-uh.
Well, I’m SURE there’s an appropriate Stones song out there somewhere.
Never fear, they are in the playlist. The Stones just didn’t pop up on that particular shuffle.
So I gave this a shot to see what I’d get, and what I ended up getting was a conformation that I have too many Beatles’ songs on my ipod.
That happens. I have too many songs on my iPod, period.
