Songs about one of my favorite topics: aliens

Score! Just found my Alien mp3 playlist on a long lost CDR that I thought we lost in the move. Let me share a few of the fun/beautiful/strange alien songs from that playlist.

I Come from the Sun by the Comsat Angels. Criminally underrated postpunk group

I used to make playlists where I would pick a topic and find all the mp3s on that topic. It exposed me to a crazy variety of genres in a short time. So many cool songs I probably wouldn’t have heard otherwise.

Then I’d go on RateYourMusic and nerd out over them with my online friends.

I’m hearing songs right now I probably haven’t played since 2012. Didn’t find any of the other themed playlists.

If they turn up I might share some old favorites I’d forgotten.

Matian Boogie by Brownsville Station, a group primarily known for their hit Smoking in the Boys Room. I heard this a lot on 99.5 FM KISS of San Antonio back in the ’80s.

Now that I think of it, that playlist could come in really handy. I think I’ll be bringing up aliens a lot. I’m a lifelong Science Fiction fan. How could I not?
