    Tonight's Playlist: Northern Lights
    What, on a Monday? Yes--I volunteered to fill in for an hour when they would normally be broadcasting a lecture series from campus, but the lectures haven't started yet for the year. I played an hour of Scandinavian music which I called "Northern Lights." This makes it something like #6 of those occasional shows over a period of several years!

    The inclusion of "Willie o' Winsbury" came from a discussion with [info]strephon about the TV trope Even the Guys Want Him. I asked whether Willie was included in the examples, as he's definitely an early example of this:

    But when he came the king before,
    He was clad all in the red silk
    His hair was like the strands of gold
    His skin was as white as the milk
    "And it is no wonder," said the king,
    "That my daughter's love you did win,
    For if I were a woman, as I am a man,
    My bedfellow you would have been."

    Apparently he wasn't on the list last night, but he's there now (or rather, another variant of the same ballad is)!

    We're getting really insane numbers of new albums at the station lately, as a glance at the playlist should suggest!

    I almost didn't make it on the air tonight! A technical glitch put the station off the air for an hour and a half in the afternoon, but fortunately, we were back on in time for me to do the show. I took requests tonight; track #13 is the result of someone asking for "a song in the Gaelic language with a female singer, just sweet and pure."
