The David Carradine Playlist

This is very likely my most tasteless blog post ever, but I can’t help myself. I grew up on David Carradine in Kung Fu. I cringed every time he picked up that red hot pot in his arms. It’s truly a tragedy to end on such an undignified note. But it’s like the old joke a friend shared with me:

A old man is talking to his son on his deathbed and he says, “Rick built hundreds of buildings, so they call him Rick the Builder, and Leonard painted hundreds of houses, so now they call him Lennie the Painter. But you suck one cock…”

So for you, David Carradine, to sing into the next world, I’ve put together the most tasteless iTunes playlist.

• Kung Fu by Frank Zappa
• Hanging by a Thread by Nickel Creek
• Take My Breath Away by Berlin
• Grasshopper by JJ Cale
• Hang On to Yourself by David Bowie
• Hung Up by Madonna
• Lose My Breath by Destiny’s Child
• Rope Burn by Janet Jackson
• Fun With Ropes by the Go-Go’s
• Slip Knot by Woodie Guthrie
• Protect Ya Neck by Wu-Tang Clan
• Ties That Bind by Carole King
• The Stroke by Billy Squier
• Blest Be the Tie That Binds by The London Philharmonic Choir

Any others?
