Song suggestions...

[GiggsysGirl]

Am co-hosting an Alice In Wonderworld theme cocktail party next month and want a cool mix playing in the background.

Think Alice, England, summer and upbeat.

All I got so far is White Rabbit by AirPLANE and England's Glory by the Blockheads.

Okaaay...GO!

 

[SteveJ]

Not exactly Alice-themed, GG, but this has a nice, ethereal sound.

 

[izzydiggler]

Smokey - "living next door to Alice".

 

[Scrumpet]

I'd be tempted to just go for White Rabbit on repeat myself. Would be one groovy party.

 

[humdinger]

Ash "Oh Yeah" & Janis Joplin "Summertime" for your summer theme? Both great songs but maybe a bit too chilled for a party....

 

[Wonder Pigeon]

Have a Cuppa Tea by The Kinks...because Alice in Wonderland has tea in it?

 

[Decotron]

No real connection but essential none the less

 

[datura]

Some Syd Barrett solo or first Pink Floyd album sound perfect.

When you say Airship you mean Jefferson Airplane, right?
