Alternate Friday Music for Friday October 24th, with the theme "Vast".
The title "Alternate Friday Music" is in the top left, with the date "October 24th" in the top right. The background is a photo of a broad, almost flat desert that recedes from shadowed rippled sand in the foreground to low hills in the distance under an azure sky. Between the desert sands and title and the date is the word "vast", its base partly obscured by the horizon.
The background is cropped from a photo by Francesco Ungaro through www.pexels.com.

Nostalgia for a time that never existed (but not in the politically destructive sense).

It's a "Fountain" of songs at #FortnightFridayMusic this week

@stormygleason nailed it with The Smiths but I'm shocked that nobody posted this yet, so I'm gonna get old and moody with it 😼:

#FortnightFridayMusic for October 17 2025 the word is "Fountain"

Artist: Cozy Bones
Album: Piss Perfect Hotel (1998)
Song: Into The Fountain

youtube.com/watch?v=MVlLEc2dBoo

I don't know a lot about Cozy Bones. I thnk they're from White Rock, British Columbia. This concludes my knowledge of Cozy Bones.

I stumbled upon this album at the library, and, as I often did, picked it up from them when they sold it as a discard. This track is kind of an outlier, with melodic vocals and a groove; I seem to recall the rest of the album is more straight-ahead rock. But I like it.

(Anybody else gonna post any Fountains of Wayne? Too easy?)

Tracy Chapman - Dreaming on a World
youtube.com/watch?v=07BMoKpsYyA

I know I may be wishing
On a world
That may never be
But I'll keep on wishing

No matter how hopeless
Or foolish
It may seem
I'll keep on wishing

I'll toss my coins in the fountain
Look for clovers in grassy lawns
Search for shooting stars in the night
Cross my fingers and dream on

My submission for #FortnightFridayMusic by @MarkIngs
The word for Oct 17 is "Fountain"

A more recent Bunnymen song that is good, but not great like their earlier output. Melancholy lyrics about wasted wishes set to grandiose sound.

Indigo Girls - Closer to Fine

"And I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains
There's more than one answer to these questions
Pointing me in a crooked line."

I like that the word for today's #FortnightFridayMusic is #Fountain, so that I can also share a Siouxsie song like @antoni 😍:

… it's divine, oh, it's serene, in the fountains pink champagne…song.link/i/1442578864

Let it be known there is a fountain
That was not made by the hands of men …"

The word for today's #FortnightFridayMusic is #Fountain, so here's my choice:

… Fingers like a fountain of needles shiver along my spine and rain down so divine, the sweetest chill…

Gotta love Siouxsie & The Banshees! ❤️

Fortnight Friday Music this week is tossing coins in the water with its theme "Fountain".

To follow on from the track by Common ("Time Travelin' (A Tribute to Fela)"), I shall stretch the theme even further and let "fountain" just mean "water'. That means I can get a Fela Kuti track in!

"Ko s'ohun to'le se k'o ma lo'mi o
Nothing without water
Ko s'ohun to'le se k'o ma lo'mi o
Omi o l'ota o …"

Hosts: @MarkIngs @bborn
Theme: Fountain
Song: "Water No Get Enemy" (1975; 10:10)

Fortnight Friday Music this week is tossing coins in the water with its theme "Fountain".

A even further stretch because the only connection between this track and fountains is the cover art of the parent release, which features a segregated drinking fountain. I could have chosen any track, but I've chosen my favourite …

Hosts: @MarkIngs @bborn
Theme: Fountain
Song: "Time Travelin' (A Tribute to Fela)" (featuring Vinia Mojica, Roy Hargrove and Femi Kuti) (2000)

Fortnight Friday Music this week is tossing coins in the water with its theme "Fountain".

A little stretch because this song pounds away for seven minutes until it ends with the sound of running water and Jaz Coleman telling us to "cover yourself with water, wash it away, that's right, wash it away, wash it all away, wash away the tears". Oh, a fountain …
