Shameful musical confessions

[lettered]

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 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 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?

You are so kidding about Spike/Dawn! Aren't you? You aren't? Please say you aren't! I know it's meant to beeee!!

That would just be too weird, dude.

And I'm so so so glad you like it. Even though that song? The one that's your favorite? Is probably the one I like least. Haha. But that's okay.

Paul Williams wrote the music for Phantom of the Paradise. Also, lots of Carpenters songs, eg "We've Only just Begun", "Rainy Days and Mondays", etc.

I don't know! When you said that, it jiggled something really familiar in my mind, but I dunno what! It's possible you've said it before, and I'm just remembering that, but I think what it was is last time I heard the song I was thinking about Jame Marsters. I listened to it again and I really think that's it, but not Spike/Dawn because while they *so* fit for the song, I didn't get that familiar feeling.

Oh no! I love that song! But my favorites on an album change the more I listen to it.

Well it's still really interesting. My computer totally needs an upgrade before I can start dabbling in vid making; like I need a new hobby? Anyway, at least I know someone else thinks it fits! (Plus it could advertise MB...because the video would be SO AWESOME everyone would see it and ask about the song!)

Re: "Prettiest Girls" -- I think playing the songs gives one a different feeling about them. I like "my" part in it, but there's something about the melody of the verse I don't like. I can't really explain it. I like the lyrics. Anyway, sometimes my favorites are based on what I enjoy doing, rather than the listening experience.

That's so funny. On the way to work this morning I was thinking you should do the Spike/Dawn vid, and then I was like, "K probably thinks she has too many hobbies. ... I wonder if she has vidding equipment?" And yeah, awesome advertising!

Ha! I never finish the things I've committed to doing. But I do want to eventually get some more hard drive space so I can try vidding. All I really need is more room; my computer's at least 5 years old and I'm lucky it's gotten me this far. I'm constantly deleting things to make room for other things. My computer has, at most, about 3 gigs of room free.
