Badly Drawn Boy – Thunder Road

To say that BDB is a Bruce Springsteen fan would be a gross understatement – he happens to be the ultimate Boss zealot. So much so, in fact, that BDB ended his Born In The UK album (which in itself is a reference to Bruce’s Born In The USA) with the lyric, “if we still don’t have a plan, we’ll listen to Thunder Road”. He’s performed the classic tune countless times over the course of his career from 2000 to present day. Take a listen below to a beautiful piano-driven rendition of the track. Bruce would be so proud.

The Healing Power Of Arcade Fire

Idolator points us to a very interesting piece in the NY Times about Dr. Gawande, a surgeon, who is becoming notorious for creating iPod playlists as he performs his surgeries.

More from the NY Times: “On a recent day, when he took out a gallbladder, two thyroids and what was supposed to be a parathyroid gland but maybe wasn’t, the playlist included David Bowie, Arcade Fire, Regina Spektor, Aimee Mann, Bruce Springsteen, Elvis Costello, the Decemberists and the Killers. The music wasn’t turned up high, but it rocked sufficiently that the anesthesiologist bobbed his head, the O.R. nurse tapped her toe, and the member of the team in charge of all the clamps and retractors drummed his fingers on the instrument tray.”

Hey, I dig it. Just one thing – if you’re playing me some Aimee Mann while I’m having my tonsils removed, kindly make sure nothing from the Magnolia soundtrack is on that playlist – too hearbreaking.
