Thanks, Hilary. 😉
The instructions are: List ten songs that you are currently digging�it doesn�t matter what genre they are from, whether they have words, or even if they�re no good, but they must be songs you�re really enjoying right now. Post these instructions, the artists, and the ten songs in your blog. Then tag five other people to see what they�re listening to.
Here�s my list:
1. Striptease, Hawksley Workman
2. The Luckiest, Ben Folds
3. Cold, Cold Heart, Midge Ure
4. The Last Recidivist, Lowest of the Low
5. Once, Jim Boggia
6. Another Town, Greg Klyma
7. Follow You, Follow Me, Red House Painters (cover)
8. Heroes, Jill Sobule
9. Hollaback Girl, Gwen Stefani
10. Raise the Roof, Carbon Leaf
No tagging this time…I’ll just leave it open to whoever. Post a link if you do this, please! 🙂
Funny; I just did that! From someone else, though.
I LOVE The Luckiest by Ben FOlds.
ACK! Rand has you listening to Midge Ure?!?!?
Yup. I dig Midge Ure. 🙂
I’ve been listening to some of those songs too (courtesy Rand — it’s scary how much influence he’s had over my listening material). I figured “Once” was a shoe-in for an Erin-Rand song. 🙂
Also listening to:
Soundtrack to “Rent”
Forest (George Winston) – good work music
Feadoga Stain album (Mary Bergin) – Irish penny whistle
Whoops, apologies…I totally ignored the instructions about ten SONGS rather than albums. Ah well…
Your monkey (the one from you and Rand), by the way, is sitting on my office window sill just beside the tree. Whenever I see it, I think of you guys. 🙂
Congrats on the story appearing in Woman’s World! You must be so excited. Make sure you keep an extra copy for your scrapbook, which will be bulging with published pieces in no time, I’m sure.
Ok, enough procrastinating. Must get back to work…
Debbie
Somehow this whole meme thing isn’t really helping with making blog friends. Hmmm.
Debbie, I love the Rent soundtrack too…a couple of my favorite tunes:
La Vie Boheme
One Song Glory
Seasons of Love (Seasons of Love had me crying before I ever saw the show)
Another Day
And, well, almost all of them… 😉
