Songs for Roya is like a virtual mix cd. Every day (or so) a new song will be posted. It could me a song that makes me think of you, or I have stuck in my head, or that fits my mood, or just plain rocks. Whatever it is, its a song for you, from me. <3

"I Don't Know What To Do With My Life" by Buzzcocks

From their LP A Different Kind Of Tension

A Different Kind Of Tension was Buzzcocks' third and last album before their original breakup, and its kind of a tough one to get your head around. The first side is a pretty typical collection of Buzzcocks tunes, but side 2 begins with "I Don't Know What To Do With My Life" and then proceeds into a semi-experimental set piece of four songs that all kind of meld together into a whole. It culminates with "I Believe", one of their greatest ever songs, which they still close concerts with. I have always had this great vision of being in a band that would cover all of side 2 of A Different Kind Of Tension live, in order, all run together. It would be :O+. Last night I had a dream wherein I was walking down the side of a deserted highway late at night with two guys I knew from college describing this vision to them, one of them replied "That sounds revolting" and I woke up with this song in my head.
