Sad Crocodile: John Foster: Songs I Road Tripped With

Here are the tunes I sang far too many times (yet never tired of) driving up and down the east coast recently:

“Kiss Me On The Bus” – The Replacements: that first “kiss me!” hits me hard everytime.

“Tomorrow” – Morrissey: great opening bass line to one of the finest sing-alongs from the master of mopey anthems.

“See America Right” – The Mountain Goats: “I grabbed the case of vodka and walked the two miles to the bus stop…”

“Golden Skans” – Klaxons: whatever the hell this is about I can’t kick the doo dah doo dah doo ahhhhh’s.

“I Can Feel It” – Sloan: I was near Nova Scotia and this is damn near perfect pop.

“Isabel” – Unrest: All-time favorite to sing with. My wife made my day when she said my singing on my own songs reminds her of Mark on this.

“Goin’ Back to Cali” – LL Cool J: “bikini small. heels tall. she said… she liked.. the ocean.” I can bass thump with the best of ‘em.

— John Foster
