LIST: Songs About Hair

10 Jul

crookedrain_crookedrain1. Cut Your Hair by Pavement

Darlin’ don’t you go and cut your hair
Do you think it’s gonna make him change?
Im just a boy with a new haircut
And that’s a pretty nice haircut


f44328k52jo2. Stupid Girl by the Rolling Stones

It doesn’t matter if she dyes her hair
Or the color of the shoes she wears
She’s the worst thing in this world
Well, look at that stupid girl


c26452g73j83. Devil’s Haircut by Beck

Got a devil’s haircut in my mind
Got a devil’s haircut in my mind
Got a devil’s haircut in my mind
Got a devil’s haircut in my mind


g08401cy174 4. Gail with the Golden Hair by the Handsome Family

Gail and I shot our empties
With an old, rusted rifle
Her golden hair went flying
Like a wild, brush fire


i41317zh2aj5. Hair Down by the Cold War Kids

Said you let your hair down
You got enough to go round, oh mine
Said you let your hair down
But you’ve been telling me that since the day we meet

Rolling Stones ‘Under My Thumb’

4 Jun

‘Under My Thumb’ has officially replaced ‘Dear Doctor’ as my current favourite Stones tune. Although the lyrics are absurdly misogynistic (try these on for size: “Its down to me/ The way she talks when shes spoken to”) I can’t resist this song. I think the zylophone is the clincher.

WARNING: Mick is sporting a particularly enviable jacket in this clip.

Rock’n'roll starts between the legs and goes through the heart, then to the head.

Q. What could be better than a crochet’d pillow in the shape of the Rolling Stones ‘Beggar’s Banquet’ on vinyl?

A. Only a crochet’d replica of ‘Born to Run’.

I am finding it very difficult to resist the temptation to buy BOTH of these. These rock-tastic record pillows are handmade by Esther of Toggle. Other records available include Blondie’s ‘Parallel Lines’, Joy Division’s ‘Love Will Tear Us Apart’ and The Clash’s ‘London Calling’ to name a few.
