Not only do we get song requests for the 9:30 Coffee Break, but sometimes we get requests for themes. A few folks have suggested the topic of coffee. Seems to make sense, right? 9:30 Coffee Break about... coffee.

So, this is an obscure one, but it would be the phenomenal song for a morning like this. Thought of this track from 1997 immediately when you were talking about this morning’s CB. If you can find it, it’s really the perfect song!
One Cup Of Coffee by Sublime
Mr. Coffee by Lagwagon
I second the Peggy Lee version of "Black Coffee."
How about the Colombian classic "Ojala que Llueva Cafe" by Juan Luis Guerra. It's about wishing it would rain coffee. Nothing wakes you up like a little cumbia in the a.m. Please!?
Lightnin' Hopkins is also great: "Coffee for Mama"
"Java" - Al Hirt
Coffee Time by Ellis
Juan Luis is Dominican, not Colombian, my apologies.
"Drinkin' Black Coffee!" -Black Flag
"Where Is My Mug?" -4130
Busting Up a Starbucks by Mike Doughty
"Black Coffee" by Black Flag. Um, not the same song as the Peggy Lee one - though I love that song too. k.d. lang does a good cover of it.
"Totally Wired" by the Fall.
-Will
Aesop Rock - Coffee
Bob Dylan - One more cup of coffee
Busting Up a Starbucks by Mike Doughty
Free Refills--The Wonsers
oh, last thing - The Profits "Sex at Six"...idk if you can play it. It's clean except for the word "sex." But they have that part
"you can tell the boys at Folgers to go away
'Cause the best part of waking up
Is a little bit of sex at six in your cup."
Please, PLease Black Coffee by EVERLAST...
Great Sexy Song for Such a Bleak day here in Jacksonville, FL temp is only 62 degrees
"Nervous tic motion of the head to the left" - Andrew Bird.... (from Live Current vol. 1 of course!)
Also, another vote for Ella Fitz' "Black Coffee"
