From love to sweets to carpentry implements...the list of things we want is beyond lengthy. No wonder Santa makes two trips. The human condition according to recording artists...Volume 2.

Fun list. SP is my favorite of the bunch, brings back memories of party life in the 80's. Had not seen that version of the Marvin Gaye, but of course the song is a classic. Never had any use for Rundgren, and Jellyfish are new to me. So, here is my nominee for a "Want" song: The Ramones, of course! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bm51ihfi1p4
Love those Scritti Politti albums! Your mentioning of them makes me want to pull out the LPs (I may only have Cupid) and play them/it. And I want to check out that Todd Rundgren album as the band sounds great. It’s hard for me to listen to any new Rundgren music because his voice is terrible now, and even when the songs are there, I can’t get past his voice.
Great post, Brad - love the Toad inclusion!! Together with Gin Blossoms and Live they sort of define a 90s sound I loved and made my daily commute much more bearable - I still go back to those playlists often!!
Haven't thought of Scritti Poliitti in years!
