Top 5 songs to play when you know you’re going to be on the potty for a long time

Wednesday, June 24th, 2009

IMG_0424I really don’t have a good excuse for this category, other than the fact that I have a juvenile sense of humor. In any event, the idea and title for today’s Top 5 was sent to me via Facebook by my good friend, Tracy. Besides, if you’re like me, you get bored easily, so maybe it’s good to have handy the Top 5 songs to play when you know you’re going to be on the potty for a long time:

1. “American Pie” Don McLean
Coming in at eight minutes and thirty-six seconds, and with a decent narrative to boot, “American Pie” should keep your mind occupied while giving you plenty of time to finish your business.

2. “Slip-Sliding Away” Aqualung (Paul Simon cover)
Enough said.

3. “Orinoco Flow” Enya
ibid

4. “Low Rider” War
War’s ode to cruising gives you a feeling of momentum without feeling rushed. Ask your doctor if “Low Rider” is right for you.

5. “Moby Dick” Led Zeppelin
At what point do you leave the pavilion to use the porta potty? That’s right – during the drum solo.

Top 5 songs to play when you know youre going to be on the potty for a LOOOOOONG time.

“Mr. Jones and me” is actually a grammatically correct phrase

Remember when you could pick up an album by Counting Crows and be reasonably sure it wasn’t going to suck? It seems like a long time ago, but I assure you, such a time did exist. The now-independant band may be revisiting that bygone era with the release of the band performing August and Everything After, recorded in 2007 in New York. Meanwhile, the band has run away and joined the circus.
