I feel like listing every song I listened to today at work (except the Prince stuff, it will be here). All my music on my computer is pretty old but I dig it. Why am I doing this? Because I'm always looking for a distraction. And because I'm the only who looks at this site on a regular basis. Also, it seems that when I listen to the music I've downloaded I get in a horrible mood so I'm hoping to figure out why. Guilt? Anyway, I have my music player set to random because it's FUN.

  • "Harper Valley PTA", Jeannie C Riley: My mom played this over the phone. Spawned a movie AND a TV show. Plus it's just a great song. I like songs that tell stories, and songs that start with counting (except that U2 song, of course).
  • "Sex Shooter", Apollonia 6: I want to start an all girl cover band that dresses in lingerie and plays only songs by the Prince proteges. I'll call it Pussy Control.
  • "Brimful of Asha", Cornershop: Everybody needs a bosom for a pillow, unfortunately I can't offer mine for the cause as they hurt a little.
  • "Planet Rock", Afrika Bambaata: I would listen to music still if even half of it was this kickass.
  • "Las Copetonas", Mariachi Cobre: I have no idea how this song made it to my hard drive but f if I don't love Mariachi music. Maybe why I loved El Mariachi and Desperado? Except I hated Once Upon a Time in Mexico, which kills that theory. Antonio Banderas, he's too sexy.
  • Dukes of Hazzard theme Waylon Jennings: When my sister finally moves her Playstation to my house I will play the Dukes of Hazzard video game until my eyes fall out.
  • Fiore Parfum, Kids in the Hall: Tonight, feel like a BITCH
  • "Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground": White Stripes: My mom digs Jack White but she's never heard a White Stripes song.
  • "West End Girls" Pet Shop Boys: I used to know all the words to this song which is funny, as I've never been a huge PSB fan. In fact, I am not sure why it's on my playlist?
  • "Wicked Game", Mr Bungle: I have nothing to say but "love".
  • "Modern Age", The Strokes: It must be nice to have a rich daddy.
  • "Flirtin With Disaster", Molly Hatchet: This is the mother of all bowling songs along with "Hold On Loosely" by .38 Special. Everyone seems to get mad, though, when I play "Red Right Hand" by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds at the Pla-Mor. Hey, if it wasn't on the jukebox, I wouldn't play it. Bitches.
  • "Casino Royale", Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass: I really need to see this movie. It doesn't matter if it's crap, the soundtrack is fantastic. I mean, "the Look of Love"? How can you resist?
  • EPCOT International Gateway Music Loop: Sometimes the only thing between me and a breakdown is a nice disney park music loop. It's like an antidepressant, only without the brain chemistry alteration.
  • "The Road To Rhode Island" Family Guy: "Lois? Damn!"
  • "Rock the Bells", LL Cool J: LL is a bit of a whore. I learned that in his book.
  • "No Diggity", Blackstreet: I like marionettes.
  • "Hold On Loosely", .38 Special: Oh my gosh, you guys, it's like I'm AT the bowling alley. Except there's no cheese stix. Or beer. Or Ginger.
  • "Girls Like Me", Bonnie Hayes: This song always reminds me that I once saw Tommy Pickles's boobs.
  • "Walk This Way", Aerosmith: This is my ringtone for my mom. She loves the song, has no idea what the lyrics are.
  • "Flamingo", Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass: If I ever make a movie, this song will be in it. Quick, someone teach me how to play trumpet!
  • "Exciteable Boy", Warren Zevon: Someone told me that my dog reminded her of this song so I downloaded it and listened to it. Oh my gosh, my dog has NEVER raped and murdered anyone NOR has he built a cage from her bones. To the best of my knowledge.
  • "Where Eagles Dare", No Fun At All: It would seem to be ironic remake day.
  • "Man of Constant Sorrow", Soggy Bottom Boys: If I had the time I would watch O Brother, Where Art Thou? every single day. EVERY DAY.
  • "Awnaw", Nappy Roots: I need to hang out with Stevo more.
  • "Walk Like An Egyptian", Bangles: One day I will tell you all about how my friend Jessica and I used to dress up and lipsynch to the songs on Different Light. Not today, though.
  • "Where The Party At", Jagged Edge feat. Nelly: No, I honestly don't remember if I was drunk when I downloaded this song. It is catchy. Boy, I can't stand that Jermaine Dupri.
  • "Move Your Feet", Junior Senior: Oh f do I love this song. It'd be a guilty pleasure if I felt at all guilty about the crap I listen to.
  • "Island in the Sun", Weezer: The 70s were cool.
  • "Flagpole Sitta", Harvey Danger: The first time I heard this was when I went to Memphis to visit Laura. It's catchy as a mern.
  • "Here You Come Again", Dolly Parton: Wonder if she ever got the reduction?
  • "Different Drum", Me First and the Gimme Gimmes: A band that made a living of off ironic covers. Mike Nesmith rocks. "Snowbird", Anne Murray: When I was a kid we had a mix tape my parents recorded. It had all kinds of good early 80s country. It got thrown out and I miss it terribly. This was on it, by the way.
  • "Waterloo", ABBA: Cheese makes everything better.
  • "Let's Get It Up", Hayseed Dixie: Irony? HAH! I need to see them live.
  • "Crazy Little Thing Called Love", Dwight Yoakam: This list is starting to degenerate into a big "hey remember that time?" kind of thing.
  • Star Wars Screen Tests, Saturday Night Live: Christopher Walken should be in every movie.
  • "The Bird", Morris Day and the Time: I'm thinking it would be hilarious to purify myself in Lake Minnetonka next time I am in Minneapolis. Also, it would be fun to visit the First Ave. club. And also to go UPTOWN!
  • Remain Seated sound clip from somewhere at Disneyland: I will, Jack Wagner. Thank you for your concern.
  • Unidentified music from some Disney park: Because otherwise? I'd be bitchcakes
  • "Freak Like Me", Adina Howard: I heard Dead Like Me got cancelled! SUCK!
  • "Now You're A Man", DVDA: i drove all the way to Atlanta to see Orgazmo in the theatre. Ok, I'll stop.
  • "Across the Universe", Fiona Apple: Now, normally I am not a Fiona Apple fan, but I love this song so much and I really like this version of it.
  • "Walk, Don't Run", The Ventures: I think all jobs should allow for a dance break twice a day.
  • "Peaches and Cream", 112
  • "Schwetty Weiner", Saturday Night Live: Not near as funny as "Schwetty Balls", but an acceptable substitute.
  • "Ironman", Sir Mix-A-Lot: It's ok if Mix-A-Lot samples Ozzy but not when Trick Daddy does it.
  • "Two Ladies", Cabaret soundtrack (the revival): Man, I like Alan Cumming so much I even saw The Flintstones: Viva Rock Vegas.
  • A short sound clip from Dinosaur, Animal Kingdom: I love that they retooled this ride to make it less scary and it still nearly scared the poo out of me.
  • "808 (remix)", Blaque: Yet another reason for mandatory dance breaks at work.
  • "Hash Pipe", Weezer: I want to make out with Rivers Cuomo so bad that to not do so might cause a chain reaction of catastrophic events.
  • "Sweet Young Thing", The Monkees: MMMMMMMike Nesmith.
  • "Seven Nation Army", White Stripes: Third in a series of songs performed by dudes I would totally make out with. Except Jack White likes bony chicks, and I'm not down with that.
  • "Girls and Boys", Blur: And another.
  • "Love Is A Battlefield", Pat Benatar: Ok, string broken. I don't really want to make out with Pat Benatar. "Feels So Good", Chuck Mangione: I love it but if you ever hear me humming it? Walk away slowly...
  • "Cookiepuss", Beastie Boys: My favorite song about a Carvel cake.
  • "20th Century Boy", T-Rex (I think): I need to listen to more glam rock.
  • "At Seventeen", Janis Ian: There was a time I couldn't listen to this song without crying my eyes out.
  • "There's Got to be a Morning After", Maureeen McGovern: I was so hungover and in an airport (and later on a plane) when I saw The Poseidon Adventure for the first time. I nearly needed those vomit bags. When you've got an early flight and a sinus infection it might be best not to drink two Abitas, two hand grenades, a tropical itch and MAYBE another Abita but I'm not real clear on that one.
  • "Don't Touch Me", Brak: Adult Swim is not the same thing as Cartoon Planet no matter what you say.
  • "Supernova", Liz Phair: Before she became an older Hilary Duff
  • More Cowbell, Saturday Night Live: Everything needs more cowbell.
  • "Cabaret", Liza Minelli: If having a voice this fantastic means marrying gay men and a drug and alcohol problem then sign me up!
  • "Christmas in Hollis", Run DMC: The best Christmas song ever. EVER.
  • "Holiday Road", Lindsey Buckingham: He spells his name wrong.
  • "Ah Leah", Donnie Iris: I have to admit, as much as I love Roy Orbison I really don't like the song "Leah". This song is cheese rock, but I dig it. I am not saying this is better than Roy Orbison, so don't be hatin.
  • "Bad Mamma Jamma", Foxy Brown & Dru Hill: Is Sisqo still around or does he work the lingerie counter at a department store?
  • "Take It Off", The Donnas: I liked them better when they were still in high school but they can still rock.
  • "Roller Girl", Anna Karina: If you've read this far, je t'aime.
