A Royal Playlist

Not much going on at the moment except that I'm going to the LA Times Book Festival at the end of the month, so in honour of Season 2 of Game of Thrones, here's a royal playlist, culled from my very own iPod.

Kingdom of Rust, Doves - An amazing song from a shamefully overlooked band; great running track, too.

Prince Charming, Adam and the Ants - As ever, ridicule is nothing to be scared of.

Killer Queen, Queen - Who doesn't keep Moet & Chandon in a pretty cabinet?

Kingdom Come, The Civil Wars - The best track from The Hunger Games soundtrack.  But you knew that.

The Queen's Rebuke, The Decemberists - Because if you don't own Hazards of Love yet, what makes you think you're welcome on my website?

Enjoy, but in the meantime, greetings to all the new commenters.  I do read them all.  FYI, I've been getting a few PR requests through the site, which is great, but best is if you try the Contacts tab above and go directly to the right source!  More soon...
