Shameful musical confessions

1. I love that song, Sexy Back, by Justin Timberlake. Almost as much as I love Draco Malfoy but it's even more confusing and twice as shameful. *hangs head; feels alone*
2. I didn't know All Along The Watchtower. And yet I <3 Dylan.
3. I recently got Loudon Wainwright and Warren Zevon mixed up.
4. I love that song, Careless Whispers. You know, the one they play in the dentist's office, the "I'm never gonna dance again / guilty feet have got no rhythm" one. George Micheal, I guess. The one redeeming thing about it is I love the Ben Fold's/Rufus Wainwright version, not so much the original.
5. I didn't know "Because" was by the Beatles.
6. I wanted to use a lyric from "Teach Your Children" for a title of dirtybadreallyreallyreallywrong pornfic.
7. I listened to Pop Goes My Heart on the way to work today and was loving it so much, I was constructing a Angel/Buffy, Angel/Cordy, Angel/Connor vid in my head. About Angel's heart going pop. Yeah. That.
8. In fact pretty much all I think about when I hear songs these days are, would that make a good vid? or: would that work in a character mix thing? I have a really great Irish sea chanty thing by Ween that so needs to be Liam's theme song.
9. I burned a cd for [livejournal.com profile] seraphcelene, but I haven't sent it to her yet. Three months ago I also burned a cd for my s-i-l. I haven't sent it to her yet.
10. I lose at music! I really really lose. I never know what's going on. Unless [livejournal.com profile] stoney321 put it on a Connor mix.

eta: 11. And yesterday, as I was shocked to discover, I don't even own a Sound of Music soundtrack. Huh?

1 & 4. There is no shame in loving perfectly crafted pop. The entire album "Faith" by George "I do boys in bathrooms" Michaels is fantastic. That's right, fantastic.

2. I am shamed.

All Along The Watchtower

by Bob Dylan

by Jimi Hendrix

by U2

by Neil Young

3. In case this ever happens again, just remember: Warren Zevon is still dead (Did you know that two of his albums were just released on CD for the first time ever? I'm really excited about that.)

5. We might have to break up.

10. I obviously have to send you more music. I am a failure.

1 and 4: I don't *like* pop, R. I know it's weird but I *don't*. SO you see why it makes me flaily.

So, public restrooms. I didn't know that (looked it up on Wikipedia). You know, I've been trying to figure out the backstory to Careless Whispers and have decided it's a very gay song.

3. No really, it was just a flub. I got disoriented. I don't know how it happened! And no, I didn't know that! Awesome.

5. Here's the thing. My friend gave me this *awesome* and twisted (really effed up) cover of that song, and I was like, huh. That sounds familiar. And then there were chord progressions and stuff that made me think it sounded like a Beatles song. But I didn't remember it at *all*. Was so confused.

10. Hee! Well, this post is actually brought to you by my friend who made me a compilation cd. She knows I fail at music and she finally just shoved a bunch of stuff onto a cd and said here, listen to this. Too bad she didn't tell me what most of the stuff is called or who it's by.
