Coffee Break: Transitions

by Anna Reed

March 03, 2016

Over at the Morning Show we are getting ready to send Sean and Jade into their new time slots – Jade rocking the 10 a.m. to 2 pm weekday slot and Sean holding down the fort during overnights and Radio Free Current on Saturday nights.

We're so excited for Brian Oake and Jill Riley to launch the new Morning Show on Monday and in the meantime, we want to celebrate this transition musically by playing songs that have interesting transitions inside of them. So we're not looking for songs whose lyrics focus on transitioning, but rather songs that actually transition themselves.

So for today's 9:30 Coffee Break, let's focus on songs that feature notable transitions.

Send us your ideas below!

Songs played


A Day In The Life - The Beatles
Dance Yrself Clean - LCD Soundsystem
Proud Mary - Ike and Tina Turner
It's Oh So Quiet! - Betty Hutton
Mr. Blue Sky - ELO
Paranoid Android - Radiohead

Do you deserve a Coffee Break? We at The Current's Morning Show think you do, and we want to bring coffee and treats from Peace Coffee and Glam Doll Donuts to your workplace. Let us know why you'd like a Coffee Break - or request your own idea for a future topic.
