Pick Your Music-Brain
I'm a big music moocher. That means I ask other people what they like, and then listen to their stuff to see if I like it. I mooch off of ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
my_daroga all the time. In the past I have mooched off of a2zmom, imnotacommitee, and stoney321, and got crazydiamondsue to send me Buffy soundtracks. I also mooched off of both my brothers, my parents, an ex, my first internet friend. Most recently I poached a song from stultiloquentia. Today I spent all day organizing my music because a friend gave me a big honkin' mix of almost entirely new-to-me artists, based on what she knew of my tastes.
So! I'd like to mooch off some of my flist. But I want to do it experimental style. You may or may not remember a post I did about wanting to make a Spock soundtrack. Forget about it! You don't have to know or care about Spock. What I want to do is ask for musical recommendations based on theme. Sound wacky? Sure, it's an experiment. See if you can do it.
Here's this week's challenge: give me songs about two different worlds. It can be about being from two worlds, or torn between two worlds, or just the difference between two worlds. It can be about star crossed lovers, like Romeo and Juliet. It can be about your momma being a beauty queen and your daddy being a cowboy. It can be about being half-robot. It can be about a fish being in love with a whale, or about East and West Berlin, or about wanting to be a Jamaican bobsledder.
Feel free to link to a clip of a song, if you're recommending it, but if you don't have one or don't have time, I'll try to look 'em up on my own. So, songs about two worlds. Have at it! Please?
