31 songs
Publisher : Penguin (25 Sept. 2003)
Language : English
Paperback : 256 pages
Nick Hornby writes about 31 songs - most of them loved, some of them once loved, all of them significant to him - beginning with Teenage Fanclub`s `Your Love Is the Place that I Come From`, ending with Patti Smith`s `Pissing in a River`, and encompassing singers as varied as Van Morrison and Nelly Furtado, songs as different as `Thunder Road` and `Puff the Magic Dragon` (reggae style). He discusses, among other things, guitar solos and singers whose teeth whistle and the sort of music you hear in the Body Shop.
Through thirty-one songs that he either loves or has loved, Nick Hornby tells us what music means to his life. These personal and passionate pieces - refreshingly free of pretension - are a celebration of the joy that certain songs have given him. Together with additional writings on music from his column in the new Yorker - seen in the UK for the first time - 31 Songs is for Hornby what many of us have always wanted: a soundtrack to accompany life.
Winner of The National Book Critics Circle award, this funny and touchingly personal book is a must for music fans everywhere.
`Original, well written and wholly lacking in pretension...as good a book about pop music as I have read in many years and the most accomplished of Hornby`s books so far` Spectator
`Funny, provocative, immensely readable. It is not simply about music...it is about Hornby, and us, and about being alive. His enthusiasm is such that he makes me want to be a better listener - and I can offer no better compliment. A triumph` Tim Lott, Evening Standard
`Refreshing, candid, very moving. Reminds you why you loved music before you knew enough to explain your love away` Uncut
