Sounds of The Cup

Who will win?

Is it just me, or is there a distinct music flavour to this year's Melbourne Cup? It never fails to bemuse just how many 'experts' come out of the woodwork when it comes to the race that stops a nation (me included, of course), but I suppose that's what makes it so special.

I only went through the starting list of horses last night, and thought I'd have a go at coming up with a mini-soundtrack to the magnificent race. Feel free to add to any of this...


Delta Blues: The Black Keys - Run Me Down

Art Success: Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Phenomena

Pop Rock: The Feeling - Love It When You Call

Zabeat: Presets - Are You The One?


Ok, if I'm gonna be serious about this, I will go with Channel 9's Karen Tso's trifecta of On A Jeune, Tawqeet and Pop Rock.
