We recently did the lonely-island-one-song-only-game. And my answer to that question is always: Dire Straits Sultans Of Swing. Then we flipped to the dream concert question (no matter whether dead or alive, which gig would you want to see?). I chose Led Zeppelin and The Doors. Double gig. I might actually turn that into a festival. Not that easy… Back to The Doors though, one of the tracks I currently often listen to is Spanish Caravan:
The latest from Danger Mouse and Cee-Lo, directed by Chris Milk. Brilliant.
A bit of background on this 1995 song from Richard D. James from Wikipedia:
The piece is named after a trade name for the drug Salbutamol, which is prescribed for the treatment of asthma. A reported side effect of this drug is tinnitus (Citation needed), a high pitched ringing in the ears. James utilized this effect in “Ventolin”, incorporating a piercing high-pitched ringing sound throughout the track. The music also incorporates heavily distorted techno beats. The resulting effect has been cited as “one of the most abrasive singles ever recorded”.
