Music Bitch

I love music—always have and probably always will. As a kid the only gifts I ever got after age 9 were books and music—so much music that by 13 I had almost 500 tapes. Yeah tapes—I know this dates me but whatever.

That being said, now that I have my itunes up and running; it is like crack. So I made a deal with myself—that once a month I can buy 2 sets of ten songs but that’s all. And because my life is so riveting I decide to post my first ten.

1) “Crucify” by Army of Lovers. Gay, gothic and mid 90s. Is there anything sillier?

2) “You Promised Me” by In-Grid. Yeah—it’s really gay and really French. But it does make me dance around my bathroom in the morning so.

3) “Save Me” by Amie Mann. Because I really like sad songs about self destructive people. Not that I know what that’s like.

4) “Bonnie and Clyde 04” by Beyonce and Jay Z. Cause they’re sexy and hip hop royalty. That and I love the title alone.

5) “Lotion in the Basket” by Greenskeepers. This song is fucked up—and I knew it well before the ‘Grey Anatomy’ episode. But it is very danceable.

6) “Common People” by Pulp. Because it’s sexy and ironic and makes me think of a certain boy from back in the day. I think you know who you are…

7) “Boyfriend” by Ashlee Simpson. Because she’s the Simpson to root for. If you have to pick one….

8) “We Run This” by Missy Elliot. I just love this song. And the high school band bit at the end is just fucking awes.

9) “Crush on You” by the Jets. It was my first album and to this day I still know every damn word. I really wanna karaoke this one.

10) “Lovely Day” by Bill Withers. If you saw ‘Roll Bounce’ then you know why… I just want to find a pair of those headphones.

I’m going to keep updating this—because I’m fascinating.
