Day 5 - Desiderium

Wayne Shorter - The All Seeing Eye

A jazz telling of the creation story, it is the almost English major in me (3 classes short, if I hadn't been a double major already) that connects the creation story to Paradise Lost and a sort of overarching longing for a world more innocent and pure.

7. Dragoon - (v.) to coerce someone into doing something

Sometimes coercion exists only inside your own twisted mind...




Queens Of The Stone Age - S/T

Erykah Badu - But You Caint Use My Phone

I can make you put your phone down

I got to see Badu live a month or so ago, and when she sang this it was ironic that pretty much everybody took out their phones for taking a video LOL. Erykah did not dragoon everybody that night. BUT the late night curfew of the city did dragoon the whole show by literally cutting off her mic and turning on the lights at 11:04 pm!

Day 07. Dragoon - (v.) to coerce someone into doing something

Dr. Dre - The Chronic

Seems like Dre and Snoop spend a good portion of this album attempting to dragoon Jerry Heller and Easy E to “eat a big fat dick”.

Going with Pressure to Party off this album. The way I interpret it is that's it's not active outside coercion, but self-imposed coercion/introspection.

4. Maunder - (v.) to talk in a rambling manner

Discogs picked the from the random button - I'm using it because of the track Ramble On Rose - while I don't think it's a song that mean Rose talks in a rambling manner, I'm using it anyway to catch up.

One could also say sometimes Jam Bands like this tend to ramble on in their performances....for a bit too long.

Run-DMC - Raising Hell

7. Dragoon - (v.) to coerce someone into doing something

Tom Waits - Mule Variations

Tom is getting downright bossy here with Get Behind the Mule, Hold On and Come On Up to the House. Sheesh.

 

[LeSamourai]

5. Desiderium - (n.) an ardent desire or longing, especially a feeling of grief for something lost

M83 - Hurry Up, We're Dreaming

A lament for lost youth, and a lost era nobody can ever get back.

Day 7: Dragoon

Sam Smith - In the Lonely Hour: Drowning Shadows Edition



Sam’s biggest hit is literally them trying to coerce (or dragoon) their lover into staying with them for one more night. The song right after that, “Leave Your Lover”, fits too.

 

[LeSamourai]

6. Chthonic - (adj.) concerning, belonging to, or inhabiting the underworld

Greet Death - New Hell

I'm assuming the new one is located down below as well...

Day 07. Dragoon - (v.) to coerce someone into doing something


N&G AoTM 2019 - Nicole Atkins - Goodnight Rhonda Lee. Coerced ? Well maybe more convinced, but either way I’d not have bought this without some persuasion from a N&G thread leader.

 

[LeSamourai]

7. Dragoon - (v.) to coerce someone into doing something

The Beach Boys - Surf's Up

According to Brian Wilson, he had to be dragooned into including the title track, which he intended to be part of Smile.


Thanks to @Russ I for a great PIF!

6. Chthonic - (adj.) concerning, belonging to, or inhabiting the underworld

Couldn't think of a good one for this challenge because others snagged my first and second pick. But I forgot that I'd randomly snagged this on a sale a while back and never listened to it. It's hell, but not really in a good way.

7. Dragoon - (v.) to coerce someone into doing something

I know it's late, I know you're weary
And I know your plans don't include me
Still here we are, both of us lonely
Longing for shelter from all that we see
Why should we worry, no one will care, girl
Look at the stars now so far away
We've got tonight
Who needs tomorrow?
We've got tonight, babe
Why don't you stay?


Stole the picture off discogs cause I'm streaming this instead of going in the other room to spin it. Laziness for the win!

Edit: I gotta admit, I bought this album for my wife cause she grew up listening to Seger with her mom, but I spin this a lot. He really did pump out the hits.

8. Septentrional - (adj.) northern

 

[LeeVing]

5. Desiderium - (n.) an ardent desire or longing, especially a feeling of grief for something lost

Playing this for the track "The Hollow" - which is about how sexual desire consumes us.

I'd say this is pretty self-explanatory.

7. Dragoon - (v.) to coerce someone into doing something

The track "The Greater Good" is about the coercion of people to believe and follow the new government for The Greater Good.
