Comment:
This comp has nothing to do with Los Angeles, Louisiana, or The La's (sorry). Rather, each song contains that precious non-sensical phrase "la la la..." in it somewhere. Most feature the la's prominantly, and often.Interestingly, the idea for this theme was inspired by how much I like The Rolling Stones' song "She Comes in Colors". Though I decided to amass dozens more of these "La" tunes (many from the 60s - 80s); I figured I'd share a more contemporary comp with y'all.
My ears have found this a fun ride; hope yours' do too! - Peace
Feedback:
No "La La La" by Brad?
Another Eels track for this: My Descent Into Madness.
This is one clever idea for a mix. "The Hate Song" by Abby Travis would fit this.
