Music for Ostomists

Jules and I did a dummy radio interview while training at Future. I talked about Table Tennis and peppered the chat with references to Ping Pong in music (Damon Albarn plays on tour, Flying Lotus and Art of Noise have both used a ball as a beat... (I could, and did, go on cueing yawns from the Pride Live Team). So I've devised an ostomy playlist for the delight of blog readers. One problem is that, as I mentioned in a recent post, ostomists are very closeted so it's impossible to identify artists who 'bag'. Instead I have wilfully misinterpreted song titles and artists' names in order to make an association. Hear the tracks at http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=DFBB2C94B53A33AE and let me know if you have suggestions.

Di's Music to Empty Bags By:

Gorillaz - Sunshine in a Bag
Ladyhawke - My Dear Ileum
Leaky Li - I'm Good, I'm Gone
James Brown - Papa's Got a Brand New Bag
Van Morrison - It Stoma
Eric Prydz - Colon Me
Rufus Wainwright - Stoma Over the Rainbow
The Carpenters - Colostomy (They Long to be)

(Sorry iPhone/iPad people: the YouTube playlist doesn't seem to work for us and I can't find an app for that.)

  4. I love that track! I'm happy to chat anywhere as you know and in such good company..The Gaga track didn't grab me on first play - maybe it'll grow. Great title though and yeah should be a definite play next show. Backgammon and pies await.
    Xx
