John Simm's Candid Playlist: Starting with Childhood Favorites to Unexplained Aversions
The initial track I was captivated by
My most primal recollection is entering a room at preschool where they were playing Yellow Submarine by the Fab Four. I was enthralled by the sonic landscape, and John Lennon bellowing: “Full speed ahead!” When it arrived at the hook, I distinctly thought: “This must be music!”
The inaugural 45 I bought
When I was eight, I won a competition at school to choose a brand new vinyl to play at the small dance we had on Friday afternoons. My instructor took me to Woolworths, and I chose Come Back My Love by Darts. The first single I bought with my own allowance was Mull of Kintyre by Paul McCartney's Wings from a music store in Lancashire. It was number one at the time, and I selected it when my father pointed out that it was by one of the Beatles.
The tune I do at sing-along
I candidly actively avoid karaoke and avoid it at all costs. But if forced, I’d select Summer Wind by Ol' Blue Eyes.
The track I oddly know each line to
I not long ago discovered that I can recall almost all the lyrics to The Boy in the Bubble, You Can Call Me Al, and each track on Graceland by Paul Simon.
The best tune to blast at a party
It hinges on what stage of the evening you are at. For the beginning it would probably be I Heard It Through the Grapevine by the soul legend. As the party deepens, I’d move on to the Artist, the Stones and Bowie, and when it gets lively, Phat Planet by the electronic act, Born Slippy .NUXX by Underworld, and Ascension by the virtual band, which is an undeniable hit.
The number I can never listen to
I inexplicably cannot stand Mr Brightside by the Las Vegas band.
The ultimate track to have sex to
Come Together by the Beatles.
The record that transformed me
When I was 12 and beginning to learn the six-string, I’d only listen to 1950s rock and roll, and was consumed by Elvis, the rock pioneer, the killer, Fats Domino, Buddy Holly and Eddie Cochran. Then my childminder brought round Let There Be Rock by AC/DC. It was still guitar music, but it was high voltage rock music. As soon as he put the vinyl on the record player, I was a fan for life.
The tune that motivates me in the morning
What’d I Say in its full glory by Ray Charles.
The song that brings me to tears
All music leaves me moved. The Queen of Soul, Frank Sinatra, Elvis and the Beatles all stir my emotions because of the harmony and pure brilliance of the singing. But The Ocean by the Sheffield crooner gets me going every time.
The track I’d like played at my funeral
The King. If I’m given a cremation, I’ll have Burning Love. If I’m buried, I’ll have Way Down.
