It's been a slow news week for me, mainly just resting my leg (I'm walking again fine, fingers crossed for a very quick return to running).  Otherwise, I've been writing and doing lots of planning for the release of A Monster Calls in May.  In the meantime, I thought, why not another EP from my own iPod.  So few songs begin with Q, let's do that, shall we?  I present to you the IPod of Q:

The Queen's Rebuke, The Decemberists - Off the staggeringly brilliant "Hazards of Love" album.  Basically, if you don't love this album, you can't be my friend.

Quand Vous Mourez de Nos Amours, Rufus Wainwright - Gorgeous. And in French.

A Question Mark, Elliott Smith - The chorus is only two notes repeated, but as in all the most superb pop music, they're the right two.

Queer, Garbage - "Hey, boy, take a look at me/Let me dirty up your mind."  Okeydokey.

Queen of the Savages, Magnetic Fields - A chirpy song on a ukelele about being in a love with a cannibal.

Bonus track:  A Question of Lust, Depeche Mode, this EP's had a pretty pervy vibe anyway, might as well close it out.

Enjoy!  Greetings to the new commenters.  More (proper) news soon.
