Friday NonrandomTen
by Tom Bozzo
See Scrivenings for the Alphabetical Ten rules. I cheated by nonrandomly selecting #1.
The iTunes Music Store Esoterica Index of this Ten — 100% less the fraction of songs available on the iTMS — 65% (only partial credit is awarded for the downbeat live take of the Lemon Drops song). Only the Railway Children are totally absent from the iTMS library.
| Artist | Song | Album |
| The Stone Roses | Something Burning (iTMS link) | The Complete Stone Roses |
| The Pastels | Something Going On | Creation Purple Compilation |
| The Mighty Lemon Drops | Something Happens (iTMS link, alt. version) | Happy Head |
| The Buzzcocks | Something's Gone Wrong Again | Singles Going Steady |
| The Jesus & Mary Chain | Something's Wrong (iTMS link) | Psychocandy |
| My Bloody Valentine | Sometimes (iTMS link) | Lost In Translation (soundtrack) |
| Robyn Hitchcock | Sometimes I Wish I Was A Pretty Girl | I Often Dream Of Trains |
| The Sneetches | Sometimes That's All We Have | Sometimes That's All We Have |
| The Railway Children | Somewhere South | Recurrence |
| Wire | Song 1 | 154 |

I meant to say that this list scores high on the Phantom Scribbler Familiarity Index. Only two bands that I'd never heard of!
