So I went through allll the songs on my computer and made a new playlist of the ones I wanted to tell y'all about. It was 2.7 hours long and contained 44 songs. And I was thinking you probably didn't really want to wade through that many songs, even if they were all awesome choices. So I put them into helpful categories for you. What? You wanted less to read, not more? Sorry buddy, you came to the wrong place.
CURRENT FAVS:
Veronica - Elvis Costello and Paul McCartney

I love Mike Doughty... were you a fan when he was lead in Soul Coughing? I still listen to those old cds all the time. Soul Coughing was awesome.
ReplyDeleteI like your other picks, very cool. I like the diversity... and I'm proud of you for admitting that you like Hilary Duff, so I thought I'd admit that I love Kelly Clarkson and purposely left her out of my list because I'm ashamed of my bubblegum-pop-addiction. And I also like those girls from the Disney channel, Aly and AJ. And OK NO MORE.
Wish I could say yes, but I'm totally jumping on the bandwagon after the song was on Grey's and Veronica Mars.
ReplyDeleteWay to come out of the bubblegum closet!
i think i need to do another extended version, as well.
ReplyDeletei look at mine, and i'm like wait! my favorite band's aren't even in there!
because i just don't have them in itunes, or whatever.
p.s.
soul coughing WAS awesome.
