Always used to wonder who I'd take to a desert island

I subbed this morning for another DJ, and the much more reasonable hour of 6AM-10AM. 9-10 is community programming (played off the Internet), so I only played music for 3 hours, but still that's twice as long as I do on Saturdays. I'm getting better at this; it's much easier now. I got to the station 15 minutes before the show, only having chosen my first two songs, plus one 3-song set to be inserted later in the show. The show went well, and there was no stress. There were also no requests... I thought drive-time shows had lots of requests... well, I did get one call, and it was a compliment, so that's always really nice.

So here's the playlist:
