Hello everyone!
With temperatures in the 60s yesterday and today... people zipping around the city without nasty old man winter smacking them about the face and neck... I thought I'd list some of my favorite songs which are about, mention or could conjure images of bicycles.
My White Bicycle - Tomorrow
Bicycle Race - Queen
Tour de France - Kraftwerk
Hey Now - Talking Heads (David Byrne sings about wanting to buy a bike & wrote Bicycle Diaries)
This Charming Man - The Smiths (A punctured bicycle - On a hillside desolate...)
Riding On My Bike - Madness
Theme from Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure - Danny Elfman
The Bicycle Song - Red Hot Chili Peppers
Ride - The Dandy Warhols (the ride mentioned is motorized, but mine is pedal-powered)
Handlebars - Flobots (the beauty of simplicity & the potential horror wrought by the complex)
Bicycle - The Jellydots
Goodbye to snow, ice and salted streets. Hello to sun, warm breezes and the sound of bells, horns and "on your left".
Stay young and invincible!
Peace
