Q-Tip - Let's Ride

My favourite Hip hop track. It sounded instantly nostalgic the day it was released. Some great little lines and for it really captures that feeling of freedom that your first car gives you and you go for a ride with some great music, just because you can.

I love that they drive a Lambo LM002 in the video too!  Nice cult car choice.

I had never really got REM.
I have always enjoyed "Night Swimming" and "It's The End Of The World", but never really rated the band until I heard this.

I'm very late to the party on this track and only first heard it within the last 12 months.

Utterly beautiful, evocative and powerful. A track to enjoy on your own.

Nearly 10 years since my last posts I have decided to dabble with this again. Since my last post lots has changed in my life, but the most major one is I now have a daughter. It dawned on me that one day I would love her to see this and hear the songs which I love, so I wanted to document them when they came to mind.

The first one I wanted to post was the first song I played to her in the car on the way home from the hospital.

It always makes me think of Only Fools and Horses!
