Sadly, not finding the third with the guy on death row.

when I was a kid, I studied Greek, Roman and (to a lesser extent) Norse mythology. I'm a sucker for a good story.

Of late, I've been getting the bug again. I've been reading about Coyote, Ananse and Pecos Bill (that's really interesting).

Ganked from liminalia:

1. If you'd like to play along, reply to this post and I'll assign you a letter.
2. You then list (and upload or link to the video, if you feel like it) 5 songs that start with that letter.
3. Then, as I'm doing here, you'll post the list to your journal with the instructions.

My assigned letter is 'R'. Just for the hell of it, I think I may do 10...

1. Golden Earring - Radar Love



2. Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers - Running Down a Dream



3. Atari Teenage Riot - Revolution Action



4. Midnight Oil - Read About It



5. The Clash - Rudie Can't Fail



6. The Specials - Rat Race



7. B-52's - Rock Lobster



8. Louis Jordan - Reet, Petite and Gone



9. Rancid - Ruby Soho



10. Crucial Conflict - Ride the Rodeo
