This thread differs marginally from the other Top 10 random threads - one and two - in that it aims to celebrate the moment, instead of the eternal. Like the Greil column, only much less so, it asks "what turns you on ___ right now?"

I must shamefully admit I too really like this song. The fact I like it and yet loathe Snoop makes my brain explode. But what a sweet chorus!

― Mary (Mary), Thursday, 8 May 2003 06:00 (twenty-two years ago)

great thread idea, great thread.

1. Luomo, The Present Lover (Forcetracks, forthcoming)--particularly "So You," which condenses everything he's ever done well into six minutes and change, and "What Good," which three minutes in erupts into the most ecstatic piece of music I've encountered in years
2. v/a, Hillbilly Boogie (Proper, UK)--four-disc box set featuring 100 songs, each containing the word "boogie" in the title. best tracks: Hank Snow's "Rhumba Boogie," Wayne Raney's "Jack & Jill Boogie," Butterball Paige's set-ending "I'm Too Old to Boogie Anymore"
3. Per Nilsen, Prince: Dance Music Sex Romance: The First Decade--exhaustive document of his career up to the end of '87. this guy interviewed EVERYONE, and while he's not a great writer, he gets the job done. compare Alex Hahn's new Possessed, a straight bio that utilizes almost all of its source material from Nilsen, and weep
4. Funny Cide--particularly for the $55.20 he won me at Churchill Downs
5. Willie Nelson, "Always on My Mind" (Columbia, 1982)--I was about to play this after the Solitaires' magnificent doo-wop weepie "I Don't Stand a Ghost of a Chance" last night during my DJ set at Infrared, only to have a regular in a wheelchair request more house music. He was the only person there who wasn't a friend of mine, so I felt obligated. Now I regret it--not that I didn't within two minutes, of course
6. Ellen Allien, Berlinette (Bpitch Control, Germany)--at times, almost as pretty--and menacing--as Luomo
7. Van Morrison, "(Straight to Your Heart) Like a Cannonball," from Tupelo Honey (Warner Bros., 1971)--a slow rhythm piece that bounces hard and contains more frustration and anger than it lets on
8. Audio Bullys, Ego War (Astralwerks, forthcoming)--funny and a little surreal, particularly on "I Go to Your House" and the title cut, but "The Snow" is one of the best cocaine songs ever recorded, both for the way its cascading horn line imitates the drug's high and the way the slurred lyric ("It seems like everyone I know/Is getting caught up in the snow") makes him sound both helpless in the I'm-going-under-and-I-like-it and what-can-I-do-to-stop-them? senses
9. New Pornographers, Electric Version (Matador)--Pop Rocks in seltzer
10. SoundMurderer, Wired for Sound (Violent Turd)--at $10 or so retail, both great nostalgia and a bargain

― M Matos (M Matos), Thursday, 8 May 2003 07:42 (twenty-two years ago)

I always feel like I should lie in these and pretend that not 9 out of 10 or 10 out of 10 are to do with house music or drugs or both. I can't really bring myself to do that, but I can't bring myself to post 10 songs either!
