Last post, we dealt with Songs About Alice... here's the obvious sequel.
10. James - Rabbit Hole
In which Tim Booth is late, always late.
9. Ash - Return Of The White Rabbit
Man, those are some chunky, funky guitars.
8. Milburn - Cheshire Cat Smile
They're not from Milburn, they're from Sheffield. Which probably explains why they sound so much like the Arctic Monkeys.
7. Julian Cope - Mock Turtle
And if you're a fan of Mock Turtles, I'm sure U Dig this.
6. The Beatles - I Am The Walrus
A person should not believe in an -ism, he should believe in himself. I quote John Lennon, "I don't believe in Beatles, I just believe in me." Good point there. After all, he was the walrus. I could be the walrus. I'd still have to bum rides off people.
5. Dave Edmunds - Queen Of Hearts
The joker ain't the only fool who'll do anything for you
4. XTC - Wonderland
Or, if you prefer, same title: different song from Big Country.
3. Elton John - Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters
Long before the tantrums and tiaras, the dirge for Diana, the ridiculous megastar pomposity... it's easy to forget that once upon a time, Elton John & Bernie Taupin wrote songs as beautiful as this one.
2. The Cure - Caterpillar
Not Mad Bob's only visit to Wonderland. He's no doubt got a season ticket.
1. Jefferson Airplane - White Rabbit
One pill makes you larger
And one pill makes you small
And the ones that mother gives you
Don't do anything at all
Go ask Alice - when she's 10 feet tall
So those are the tunes that Carroll my Lewis... but which song sends you down the rabbit hole?
