Song Years

[solipsistnation]

Okay, here's who it was:

• 1959 - Sisters of Mercy
  
• 1963 - New Order
  
• 1969 - Sisters of Mercy (covering the Stooges, yep)
  
• 1969 - Boards of Canada
  
• 1974 - Robyn Hitchcock
  
• 1978 - Holland and Mark Borthwick, from Soundtrack for Synthetic Voices, which is... well, nobody appears to ever have listened to it but me. it's kind of a weird lengthy sound collage thing. I like it, in certain moods, but I don't know if I'd recommend it to anyone else.
  
• 1984 - David Bowie
  

Songs with years in them include 1913 Massacre (Arlo Guthrie), 1952 Vincent Black Lightning (Dansaul, covering Richard Thompson), and the 1990's Theme from the Tron Soundtrack. Oooh.

Actually, for 1984, I was going to go with the Eurythmics, but then I realized that that's the just the sub-title, the real title being "Sexcrime".
