Monkey Spank


I make CD mixes. They were a godsend when my car radio went katputz and I had to drive an hour to work everyday. The heavily rotated discs back then were ‘Angry Rock Driving Mix’ volumes 1 and 2, the ‘Massive’ mix (collection of Massive Attack songs), and the FLCL mix.

Thanks to the Coffee Achiever, I’m revisiting abandoned mixes like the ‘Monkey Spank’ mix:

Divinyls – I Touch Myself
Green Day – Longview (acoustic)
Tool – Jerk-Off
Cyndi Lauper – She Bop
Billy Idol – Dancing With Myself
Billy Squier – The Stroke
Green Day – Longview
Sprung Monkey – Turning Japanese
Incubus – Turning Japanese
Billy Idol – Cradle Of Love
Billy Idol – White Wedding
Toni Braxton – You’re making me high

I’m sure you can figure out the theme to that mix. Now I need to pull together the ‘sexy librarian‘ mix that Kara mentioned.

I only mention “Turning Japanese” cause way back when, I saw an interview where they said that the song was about masturbation. MedicMike reminded me of the VH1 show where they denied its masturbatory overtones. I’m going with the first interview. I’m not sure why they suddenly became Little Mary Sunshines and I don’t care. Their song is about the jerkin’ and it’s staying that way.
