Thanks, Kate...

I'm supposed to give you seven songs that are currently on repeat for me right now. Seeing as I always listen to the same CD's, my "what's hip" really isn't too hip. As NB-C says, I listen to whiny shit. She's right. If it ain't slow & low, sad & melancholy it's probably not playing in my car...and seeing as I still don't have an Ipod, Phillips, or other MP3 player, I am really uncool.

So here goes:

Irreplaceable by Beyonce: Ever since my week in Belgium where it was played overandoverandover I can't help it, I crank this song up and sing it, loud. It's a good anthem for me, even though not really applicable at present time. I agree with Kate, as a single gal, you can't really help but love the lyrics. I sooooo want to sing this to the husband-formerly-known-as-mine.

Say It Right by Nelly Furtado: Something about that song is just sexy. It's kinda mellow, kinda fun, but I dig this tune. It makes me want to get my swerve on. "From my hands I could give you, Something that I made, From my mouth I could sing you another brick that I laid, From my body I could show you a place God knows, You should know the space is holy, Do you really want to go?" I just love it.

Last Request by Paolo Nutini: Current anthem of yours truly. Shocking. Anywho, as I have mentioned before I am in love with this fabulous 19-year old Scottish lad. Dude is freakin' hot. I mean, smokin' hot. Fabulous, perfect lips. Amazing eyes. HOT. See for yourself...And besides that, I really love the words. And oh, how I would love to go nowhere with him...



Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol: "All that I am, all that I ever was, is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see. I don't know where, confused about how as well, just know these things will never change for us at all." OOOOH it gets me every time.

Glamourous by Fergie: So I don't have this tune on CD, but I see it all the time on VH-1 and there is something special in the way she says "flouncy, flouncy" because really, isn't flouncy an under-used word? One can never have too much flounce. I wonder if I'm flouncy?

Say Hello, Wave Goodbye by David Gray: I adore this song. I had forgotten it, and came across it by chance a couple months ago and now I think I listen to it daily. It's relevant only to one person over the last 1.5 years, ahem, yeah that one. "You and I had to be the standing joke of the year...It was a kind of so, so love and I'm goin' to make sure it doesn't happen again...take a look at my face, for the last time. I never knew you, you never knew me, say hello - goodbye." Yep. If only I c/would say goodbye...

Broken Hearted Savior by Big Head Todd & The Monsters: Old school. Recently came back into my mix. Takes me back someplace special. It's like a long spring drive on Old Frankfort Pike, with the sunroof open, the sun comeing down and making you warm, wind blowing in your hair. It's familiar. It's happy. It makes you remember a different place and time, and it makes you want to sing.

....So tag, you're all it. I think there are about 6 people reading this blog and you know who you are. Give me some new music - I need to live vicariously through you...
