Radio.blog is watching

New World Man sir, or whatever they're calling you now, I love these weekly playlists of yours. But how do I, a mere blog reader, experience this music for myself instead of just reading about it?

Why, you can listen to all 12 songs, in order, from each week's playlist. Even from the last five or six playlists! All the songs are in the radio.blog player at the upper right of the mattbarr.com home page. You can also launch the player in a new window and start right with the current first song by clicking here.

It's come to this blog's attention that you need a certain version of Adobe Flash player to see the radio.blog. If you're having trouble, go here to download the latest version of Flash. Radio.blog isn't the only application on the Internets that uses it! You'll get your money's worth (particularly since it's free).

You may know that this blog participates in the Watcher's Council. Twelve bloggers, including this blog, nominate a post of their own from the previous week and a post from elsewhere in the blogosphere for consideration. Then they all vote on which is the best in each category (Council/non-Council), never for their own. The result is a useful review of the best of the blogosphere for the preceding week, which Watcher posts every Friday (and we Council members summarize when we're good and ready).

The twelve blogs involved not including this one are AbbaGav, Done With Mirrors, The Education Wonks, Gates of Vienna, The Glittering Eye, JoshuaPundit, Rhymes With Right, Right Wing Nut House, ShrinkWrapped, The Strata-Sphere, The Sundries Shack, and your host, Watcher of Weasels.

Twelve? That's as many songs as in these weekly playlists! I had the same thought! Here then is the Watcher's Council radio.blog playlist. It shouldn't be too hard to match each song up with a Council blog, but it shouldn't be so easy that I tell you!

Theme From Peter Gunn/Every Breath You Take, Henry Mancini & the Police
Let's Go Crazy, Prince
Abacab, Genesis
Our House, Madness
Glitter Years, Bangles
Driver Education, Amy Ray
Every Little Thing (He) Does Is Magic, Shawn Colvin
Kite, U2
Freedom Fighter, Big Head Todd & the Monsters
Vapor Trail, Rush
Love Shack, The B-52s

Enjoy!
