The last time I was there, I was getting particularly annoyed with something or other, when "Helter Skelter" by The Beatles came on in my earphones.
I thought, how fantastic would it be to plug this in to a few gazillion watt amps and blast it through the place. That would get Sheila's constipation sorted I tells ya.
So I though a bit more about a possible Chemo Ward playlist. Here's what I have so far:
- Irene Cara - Fame
- Gloria Gaynor - I Will Survive
- The Jam - Going Underground
- Journey - Don't Stop Believing
- Leonard Cohen - Ain't No Cure
- Joe Jackson - Cancer
- Damien Dempsey - Sing All Your Cares Away
- The Ramones - I Wanna Be Sedated
- The Specials - Enjoy Yourself
- The Velvet Underground - Beginning to See The Light
- Dylan/Clapton/Rose - Knockin on Heaven's Door (Axl wins for me)
- Tom Waits - Looks Like I'm Up Shit Creek Again
- The Frank and Walters - Fight
- The Beatles - Getting Better
- The Pogues - Fiesta (If he's still alive and happy there's hope for us all)
Any other suggestions?

Some glorious Handel or JSB? Obvious age difference here! But one has to cater for the older "client" too!

Nina Simone 'ain't got no, I got life' or I have a secret love of 'it's a hard knock life' from Annie (original version of course as it has more sass in it!). That gets a lot if air time in our house some days!!
