I've been memed! (meme'd?)

Everyone else moaned about doing it, so of course I wanted to do it. I'm a bit of a masochist that way.

Darling precious monkey Groc tagged me to do my music list.
No, really, I couldn't!
Well, okay. Really. Twist my arm.

1. Total amount of music files on your computer?
My iTunes has 7502 songs. I have about a hundred cd's that I haven't imported, and most people would agree that they should stay that way.

2. The last CD you bought was...
I bought William Shatner's Has Been. When I was a kid I fantasized about Captain Kirk, as he was ALWAYS losing his shirt. I like the fact that he can mock himself while still being respected. Ben Folds produced the album, and the duets are . The song about death keeps me chuckling on the subway. Chuckling on the subway scares other people.

3. What was the last song you listened to before reading this message?
Starbucked by Bond. Since I'm still typing, Oingo Boingo's cover of I am the Walrus just played. I've been on a bit of a guitar thing in the evening.

4. Write down five songs you often listen to or that mean a lot to you.

Foolish Love by Rufus Wainwright. Fellow PC Volunteer JP let me listen while relaxing in Tashkent, and I loved it. Being strong and fragile at the same time, being in NYC, falling for a guy, it's all connected.

Under Pressure by Queen and Bowie. I listen to it all the time while walking to and from work. Nice song for motivation during teaching breakdowns, plus I think about family.

Tender Love by Force MDs. It was the first time I had ever slow danced, probably 9th grade. I danced with Lisa Eaton. I had a crush on her, and I wanted to kiss her, but I was too chicken. Lisa was a great dancer. Me, not so much.

Groove Me by King Floyd. I love that song. When I'm feeling particularly happy and romantic and bubbly, this is the song that always pops into my head. I could never picture myself doing it, but if I ever did a strip tease for Derrick, it would be to this song. Something involving a hat being thrown, or maybe a tie, even though I never wear ties.

Half a Man by Shannon Brown. Sexy rockabilly country song. Makes me wanna two-step, while doing karaoke. "Cute butt, sexy eyes. Tall and dark, I know what I like. Heart of gold, brain to match. Ain't gonna settle for less than that. Half a man, ain't enough." She sings it better than I do, but I'm a pretty good singer in the shower.

5. What 3 people are you going to pass this baton to and why?

Lee, of Eau de Humanity . He can make lists like no other. Plus I don't think he really wants to do it. That means he wants it, at least by my twisted logic.

Alan, of Some Amusing Blog Pun, because I want to see him mix the music with photos of hot and yummy gymnasts.

MzOuiser, because I need to know that females don't all listen to the crap that my kids listen to. Plus I bet she has some awesome music to adopt.

When Glenn whined about being left out of the music meme (a problem that has since been addressed) I just thought that I was happy to be alone. Sadly, my luck has now come to an end. Damn you, Trash... [Read More]
