ventaIt's Friday! It's about three o'clock! It's time to Boogie At Your Desk!
Friday afternoons need a little something. I think they need a Top Tune. Something to make you shuffle in your seat and, if possible, Boogie At Your Desk.
I'm not claiming that any track provided to enable At-Desk Boogying is one of the world's best or most profound pieces of music. It will, however, be a tune which makes me smile, and which has at some stage made me surreptitiously Boogie At My Desk.
Desks are not compulsory, of course. Feel free to boogie through your office, in your bedroom, round your lab, across your classroom, on the train - wherever you find yourself on a Friday afternoon.
If you like the track, go out and buy the album it belongs to - I'll try and recommend a suitable CD to purchase for any BAYD track.
The link to the mp3 will expire at some point in the future.
Today you are invited to Boogie At Your Desk to:
Two Door Cinema Club - You're Not Stubborn [link to mp3 download expired, but YouTube link may still be active]
I'm a bit behind the times on this one; Two Door Cinema Club were the band of the moment about two and a half years ago. I was expecting to listen to their rather more recent album this morning, but I don't seem to have a copy at work. So instead I stuck with the fun, jangly Tourist History.
I think a little snippet of You're Not Stubborn was used as the theme for the BBC's coverage of Glastonbury in 2011. Or maybe it was one of the other songs. I know it took me ages to place it.
Anyway, the album is all about the upbeat guitar music. I've just learned from Wikipedia that they use a drum machine rather than a real drummer - which should, with hindsight, have been obvious :)
I was delighted to get an email from the British Computer Society about BAYD this morning. Disappointingly, on closer insepction, it turned out to be about BYOD.
