Whale in a Cubicle

Some time ago, I made a “Work Sucks” CD to celebrate an entry into the working world. Last night, while searching my iPod for the perfect song to capture my mood, I stumbled upon the playlist. And it’s actually not too bad. I added some recent songs to round it out. Fight the man!

1. Bastard: Ben Folds

2. Ghost of Corporate Future: Regina Spektor

3. Paint it Beige: Telenovela ::an Athens band!::

4. A Hard Day’s Night: The Beatles

5. The Underdog: Spoon ::I play this song no less than 3 times/week at my desk, typically right before I have to do a task that I hate::

6. That Lucky Old Sun: Louis Armstrong

7. Money: Pink Floyd

8. Proud Mary: Ike & Tina Turner

9. Hip to Be Sqaure: Huey Lewis & the News ::it's hard for me to listen to this song and not think of Christian Bale axing that guy in American Psycho::

10. Total Job: The Faint

11. I’ve Been Working: Van Morrison

12. Maggie’s Farm: Bob Dylan

13. Wouldn’t Mama Be Proud: Elliot Smith

14. 9 to 5: Dolly Parton

15. Step into My Office, Baby: Belle & Sebastian

16. Government Center: The Modern Lovers

17. This Lamb Sells Condos: Final Fantasy

18. Plasticities: Andrew Bird

19. Antichrist Television Blues: Arcade Fire

I think all of these songs are available on iTunes, although I really need to figure out how to make a streaming playlist…
