Music

I have eclectic tastes in music. One minute I’m listening to the Black Eyed Peas, and the next it’s Amy Macdonald. Right now I have an Amy Macdonald song stuck in my head. It’s called RUN. I think it’s quite haunting. But it doesn’t help that we played this CD on a loop on the way back from Acapulco.

I’m different from my husband in that I’m still discovering new artists. Andres stopped caring about new music about the time Ace of Bass disbanded. He also thinks the Bangles are awesome. Shh, don’t tell him I’m mocking his musical stagnation.

I’m looking at my Itunes right now and here are my ten most played songs:

I Gotta Feelin - Black Eyed Peas
30th Century Man - Scott Walker
Boom Boom Pow - Black Eyed Peas
I Will Follow You Into the Dark - Death Cab for Cutie
All My Little Words - The Magnetic Fields
Once in a Lifetime - Talking Heads
You Ain’t Seen Nothin Yet - Bachman Turner Overdrive
Baby Did a Bad Bad Thing - Chris Isaak
Waking Up in Vegas - Katy Perry
Run - Amy Macdonald

Now it’s time for you to confess your top five most-played. You know you want to. Random commenter wins Skin Game or Doubleblind, whichever (s)he wants more.

  16. Kimberly B. Says:

    This will probably be inaccurate, and I’m sure it will be embarrassing but here it goes:
    1. The Guild, Do You Want to Date My Avatar (video, actually)
    2. Azam Ali, Endless Reverie
    3. Brian Keane and Omar Tekbilek, Somewhere in the Sahara
    4. Bat for Lashes, Daniel
    5. Sara Bareilles, River (cover of the Joni Mitchell song)

    I like to listen to bouncier music on my Ipod because I’m often walking and trying to get my heart rate up. I listen to quieter stuff on my computer because I’m working or writing.
    Have a great week!

    I tend to play and replay music endlessly… Currently while driving my husband’s car, I’m listening to Josh Groban’s Awake–the top five from that are: Mai, You Are Loved, In Her Eyes, Lullaby, and Weeping. In my car (yep, the minivan), we’re listening to Laurie Berkner’s Under a Shady Tree–top five: Under a Shady Tree, I’m Gonna Catch You, Mahalo, I’m Me and You’re You, Do the Dragon.

    And the kids haaaaaate when I sing along ;) My husband tends to listen to a far greater variety of tunes… sometimes I get hooked, sometimes not!
