What? Nobody's doing any Monday Music? Well, if the RIAA hasn't shut Radio MeCha down yet, I'll play an hour-and-a-half of "global warming" themed songs, from Cold to Hot, right about.... NOW! (9:15PM Pacific Nightlight Time)
Tony Bennett (before he misplaced his heart) - Cold Cold Heart
The Dondero High School Chorus - (Foreigner's) Cold as Ice
James Brown James Brown! - Cold Sweat
The Hollies - Long Cool Woman in a Back Dress (as opposed to a Long Black Woman in a Cool Dress)
Digable Planets - Rebirth of Slick (Cool Like Dat!)
Squeeze - Cool for Cats
Paul Davis - Cool Night (which I picked as the LEAST painful of the cheesy '70s ballads with 'Cool' in their titles... I may be wrong)
The Normal - Warm Leatherette
The Beach Boys - Warmth of the Sun
(a severe shortage of Warm songs, at least in my collection)
Foreigner - Hot Blooded (sorry I couldn't find the Dondero Chorus singing this)
(And now the Hot City trifecta)
Nick Gilder - Hot Child in the City
Billy Idol - Hot in the City (longer version than I wanted to play)
The Lovin Spoonful - (Hot Town) Summer in the City (shorter than it should've been)
Thomas Dolby - Hot Sauce
Perry Como - Hot Diggity (my collection of pre-rock era mp3s is dangerous!)
Buster Poindexter - Hot... Hot... Hot...
Power Station - Some Like It Hot (Is it my imagination or do they throw in a sample of Daffy Duck going "Woo"?)
Kool & the Gang - Too Hot (oxymoronic or eponysterical?)
Ini Kamoze - Here Comes the Hotstepper
