I’ve Been Served
I’ve been served, which is just Tracey’s nice way of saying I have to do this thing or else I’m a commie and I ain’t no fricken commie. A socialist perhaps, but never a commie. And thus, I am complying and listing seven songs I am into right now.
But before the listing commences, a disclaimer is necessary lest you conclude that must I live in some weird biodome or time capsule or something:
I am not, for the most part, into much current music. Our radio stations are horrible ClearChannel and Infinity-owned crapfests and MTV? They don’t even play music videos anymore, do they?
The last CD I bought? A Laurie Berkner disk for my six year old.
In short, I just don’t have many options for keeping up so I tend to play old stuff 95% of the time unless the huz turns me onto something new.
I came to these choices by noting which songs I was listening to when I took P for a stroll yesterday:
Nothing To Fear by Depeche Mode
Flagpole Sitta by Harvey Danger
Something Good by Utah Saints
River Euphrates by The Pixies
Where is My Mind by The Pixies
Dre Day by Dr. Dre
Don’t Stop [Fatboy Slim Mix] by The Freestylers
Okay, I’m going to get all super ambitious here and tag some people that probably do NOT, as a rule, do memes. Or maybe they do?? Or will. For me ;)
MetroDad, Melissa, and Jay? You’ve been tagged!
Your mission? It’s easy. Just list seven songs you are into right now, no matter what they are. Then tag seven some other people to see what they’re listening to.
If anyone is just dying to do this meme or if you just need some filler for the weekend or what have you, feel free to tag yourself and slap my name on it.
Wowser…you’re going to love this, but I actually passed a meme from Kristen’s “Real Mom’s” to you on my site…it was before I saw you just did another meme. So IF you’re not meme’d out…
You need Sirius or XM. I’ve never been much into new music, but with Sirius I actually know what’s new.
I’m into Amy Winehouse. She’s so bluesy, great music for kicking back with a glass of wine.
You’re gonna grow up to be a debaser.
I’m with you on the current music. I tend to listen to classic rock.
I’m the same way about classic rock. I listen to current music, only because my oldest son doesn’t give me a choice. I don’t know what makes teenagers believe that everyone in the house wants to listen to their music so they blare it as loud as it will go… There is only the rare current song that I like though…
I just embarrassed myself over on my site with this musical meme. I can’t say I’m the hippest mom out there after posting my seven. No top ten for me. Seems I’m stuck in the past.
And I luuvvv the Pixies.
Love this and especially Depeche Mode.
And hooray for the Pixies … I am off to buy some more pixies for my ipod right now.
Mmmm, Pixies and Depeche Mode. Nice.
I got sucked into the undertow, too. I tried to resist, but no chance.
Now there is a Meme right up my alley! Too bad I wasn’t tagged. Now I cannot post my own 7. haha
It all sounds so interesting, but what’s a Meme? Depeche Mode I know for sure, but Meme’s…uh, not so much.
I’ve been trying to think of my favorite reason why you rock and now…Dre Day…I’ve got it.
Th Pixies. You are so my friend.
The Pixies and Dr. Dre … now that is a combination. Outstanding.
Nice on the Pixies! Now I have that song in my head. Which is a great thing!
I saw that, too — the pixies AND dr. dre, and I felt so ashamed for listening to avril lavigne’s “girlfriend” over and over again … I am downloading the pixies right. now.
