Songs that are "rooms with many doors"

Fugazi - "Nightshop"

never looks back

Fuck yes, I meant to add Nightshop. Epic Problem might do this too?

louie you should really try the-dream again! so many doors

Stevie Wonder's gotta have something that fits?

Jane's Addiction - "Ted, Just Admit It"

One that is & isn't: 'Strawberry Fields Forever'

John Cale, "Strange Times In Casablanca"

Adam Green - "Gemstones"

Pink Floyd -Echoes

probably the only spiritualized that fits is the single version of 'feel so sad'

What about Roxy Music's If There Is Something? In the beginning a boring country rock ballad but then it takes off into melodramatic loveland. Bryan Ferry almost drowns in his tears.

Not doing too badly.

Yes, early Roxy were the kings of this.

Stevie Wonder's gotta have something that fits?

"Sir Duke," kinda.

Has anyone said "MacArthur Park" yet?

you don't have any roxy music on your hard drive, nick? i am surprised to say the least.

Yes, early Roxy were the kings of this.

Queens, rather.

Nick, you don't possess a copy of LiLiPUT: "Eisiger Wind"???

Or every record ever, for that matter.

EISIGER WIND!!!

Yeah! WOO WOO!!

The most doored-up room ever, amirite?

I don't have any Roxy Music on CD, let alone my iPod.

'William, It Was Really Nothing' is an inspired choice. In a similar vein, I nominate 'Penny Lane'

Needs more SFA, Louis.

Ice Hockey Hair.

Slow Life would have been my next suggestion!

Not Ice Hockey Hair...that one's overrated imo

er

maybe Cloudberries? Zoom?

IHH was one of the last non-shitty songs they did imho

In addition to the Love songs already mentioned, there is also "Daily Planet" and "The Castle".

And too many Incredible String Band songs to list.

yeah well yr a time-capsule 90's stan xp

Slow Life would be my alt, so yeah.

Is the live 12" version of "The man don't give a fuck" too long for this?

SM, I'm sending you my traxx. You'll be submitting a final compilation at some point, I'm guessing? I didn't have any Moonshake on hand, so I included "Dream by Dream" by The Chills instead. I also omitted the Granddaddy track, per LJ' s observation.

Oh man, I was just thinking of "Dream by Dream" by The Chills!

Lilys - Most anything from Better Can't Make Your Life Better or the Services (for the soon to be departed) EP

btw that Lapsus Linguae arrived and is totes awesome

Another thought: "Looking Glass," by The La's

update: Lapsus Linguae are *mindblowing*

Throwing Muses, "Call Me"

Roxy Music, "Ladytron" & "If There Is Something"

Nirvana "Aneurysm"

White Stripes, "Black Math" (these last two only have a couple doors)

(does Roxy Music count as prog?)

Guided by Voices, "Her Psychology Today" and "Ester's Day"

Liz Phair, "Johnny Sunshine"

Sonic Youth, "Female Mechanic on Duty"

Alice Cooper, Halo of Flies
