Tim Ross' legacy songs

Tim Ross is one of those fella’s you want to bail up in the kitchen at a house party. Better known to many as simply Rosso, he’s a triple j legend who we first met as co-host of Drive alongside Merrick Watts. He’d go on to launch a new commercial radio station, publish books, and fall deeper into his love of Australian architecture.What I love about Tim is that he makes me feel like design is for all of us. And the way he tells stories connects to the very stories these buildings tell. Of who we were, who we are, and who we want to be.He’s just made a new series for ABC called Designing a Legacy, and it’s bloody brilliant. From Bruny Island to far up north in the Torres Strait, it’s an eye opening show about what structures can do for a community.With that idea of legacy in mind, I asked Tim to pick songs that shared his legacy. From The Fauves to Kelis to Joni Mitchell, it’s a heartfelt and hilarious trek through a colourful and curious life.The Fauves – Everyone’s Getting a 3 Piece Together Chemical Brothers - Leave HomeKelis - MilkshakeThe Go-Betweens - Streets of Your TownJoni Mitchell - Coyote (live from The Last Waltz)
