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?

1. !!! Now I am picturing Draco dancing around in his robes, twirling his wand, singing, "I'm bring sexy baaaack" while Snape supplies the "Yeah!"s and techno beat in the background.

4. Hahahahahahahahaha! Okay, okay. I'm sorry. Hahaha!

6. You're so twisted! *is all proud*

11. FIX THAT RIGHT NOW! IT'S SO WRONG! IT CHALLENGES EVERYTHING I KNOW IS TRUE ABOUT YOU!

The only one that shocks me is 11.

1. Me too. I blame Fod. I find that's handy for most things involving my taste being warped.

2. Dude. All Along the Watchtower. Hendrix. How old are you, again?

3. Daki had sex with Louden. That's probably not gonna help you remember him any better. She said it wasn't worth remembering. *G*

4. Me too. I have his CD.- Which, speaking to both 6 & 7, has many baddirtywrong song titles and themes, most of which could be used to vid Angel/Connor, especially Father Figure. With the "all I wanted was to see you naked".

But 11! 11 is SHOCKING, yo!

I go hide now.

OMG! I am with you about #1!!!! I love that song so much and play it way too much - you are not alone!!!!!

Pop Goes My Heart?!!! So awesome! Whenever I'm down, I'll rewatch the video from the movie and it always cheers me up.

I am shocked about #11 - you must fix that!!!! I was realizing recently that I only have it on tape and no longer have a tape player, so I need to get a CD of it too.

<3 you!!! *hugs*

Okay you love Sexy Back because Justin Timberlake is fucking awesome. And that song is pure pop awesomeness. Secondly, you love Careless Whispers with George Michaels because HIS VOICE IS WONDERFUL. And it's so poignant and over the top and wonderful. *loves it, too*

(And here's my secret: I looooooaaaaathe Rufus Wainright. *loses at being a Kool Kid*) I do the "vid" thing in my head, too.

<3

4. Somewhere along my internet travels I picked up a demented and gleefully *bluegrass* cover of Father Figure by Girlyman. It's HILarious. Not that I ever took George Michael seriously, but...the possibility is gone.

8. Heh, I have so many vids I would vid if I vidded.

Wow. Well, that has to be remedied. Which version would you like? Movie soundtrack? 1998 Broadway revival? 2006 London Palladium (I just got this last week)? 2005 Vienna kast recording (in German - it's awesome)?

Certain songs? Movie clips? Didn't I send you that? I know I made one for Liz and Sandra, but I'd be more than happy to send you whatever I have :-)

And that's why I love you. ♥

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.

I loved George Michael and thought Careless Whispers was so deep and truthful. He was so heartfelt in the video, how could she just run off and leave him like that?? How? He was sorry, he was never gonna dance again...

*sways, lost in the feeling*

Um. What?

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 whole CDs of songs that I think should be vids. I make vids in my head when I'm bored. My flist as a whole should be v.v. grateful that I lack the talent and technology to make these vids a reality. *g*

Also - I got your email before I left for Birmingham last week. I'll get back to you with other stuff in the next couple of days! ;)

Even when you're shamefully clueless, you're adorable.

I kind of like that Careless Whispers song too. He sounds so ANGSTY.

I also think about vids when I listen to music. I have a whole set of vids-to-Paul-Williams-songs in my head. My computer can't handle making them, though, so my brilliance goes unshiny.

I should send you a cd. Of music.

(I really want to make a Spike/Dawn vid to the Mercy Brown song "Handsome and Vile")

Oh my gosh, I'm horrible at keeping up with music too! And I don't have the CD of the Sound of Music either, though my family has a cassette tape of it in our house. And we have the VHS tape of the movie in our house... apparently we need to update more of our technology. =P
As for the other points:
1) I LOVE "Sexy Back"! You're not alone! I turn up the volume whenever it comes on!
5) The Beatles did so many songs, and I don't think that I know half of them. It's quite sad, actually, as I love the Beatles. I think I need to broaden my music knowledge. =P
7) I love Pop Goes My Heart! I have the Music and Lyrics soundtrack on my computer!
8) Oh my goodness, I've seen so many Harry Potter fan videos on You Tube! Sometimes I do think that a certain song goes along really well with a character or a situation. So I know the feeling!
10) Me too. Although, I do love music, so at least that's something, right?
