Dirty Rotten Memes II, The Hideous Aftermath

A certain Fuzzy creature is just *asking* for trouble....

This is kind of easy. I was just up all night listening to music. And I even (belatedly, after screwing this up because I was too tired to read the instructions) finally added them:

List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they’re not any good, but they must be songs you’re really enjoying now. Post these instructions your site along with your seven (for those of you who, like me can't count, that's all the fingers on one hand, plus two more) songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they’re listening to.

1. Probably the most intensely bittersweet love song you will ever hear. I'm About to Come Alive, Train.

It was made to sing along with. Or just listen to:

In every frame upon our wall
Lies a face that's seen it all
Through ups and downs and then more downs
We helped each other off of the ground
No one knows what we've been through
Making it ain't making it without you

2. All The Pretty Girls Go To The City - Spoon

3. Animals - Nickelback

4. Gary Indiana Blues/Riviera- Big Head Todd and the Monsters (Good nightshirt the sound is awful on the demo. Awful - nothing like the CD).

5. Crying Shame - Jack Johnson

6. Sunshinin' - The Vines

7. My Man's Gone Now - Nina Simone

8. The Dimming of the Day/Love Me Like a Man- Bonnie Raitt. Really, almost anything on this CD.

9. Northern Sky - Nick Drake. Or Three Hours, which I have always loved too.

10. Only The Song Survives - John Hiatt

You know... we just realized we only had to do 7 of these stinking things. RTFM. *sigh* Hmmmm... who will we torture?

Well, we know our first victim: Right Girl. We don't even care that she's sick. For those who foist memes on the unwary there can be no mercy.

We shall share more hate shortly. Feel free to pile on in the comments.

OK... on to sharing the hate:

And the honorees are:

Patterico. Oh yes. you. are. Stop harrassing NewsWeak fertheloveofMike. Those poor saps are on the ropes :D

And hopefully you won't call your post 7 Reasons Why Cassandra Is a Pain in the Ass like some people who shall remain nameless.

Camojack

Grim, because I can already see the look on his face and it's priceless.

Chatterbox, who we are convinced is not an actual Box, but a real person

Beth the Islamotard Slayer, if someone hasn't already tagged her.

And I'm going for a twofer for my last tag: John and Beth. We have never tagged a married couple before. Do they listen to the same muzak?

This could be kinky.

I've currently got one of those retrospective CDs in the Harley's stereo...the year: 1965.

I'll get back to you regarding the tunes I'm "grooving" to the most...

OK, for a trip down Memory Lane:
1. "For Your Love" -The Yardbirds
2. "The Tracks of My Tears" -The Miracles
3. "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" -The Righteous Bros.
4. "My Girl" -The Temptations
5. "Do You Believe in Magic" -The Lovin' Spoonful
6. "I Can't Help Myself" -The Four Tops
7. "I Got You Babe" -Sonny & Cher

Definitely got me feeling nostalgic for the days when AM radio was it...

All right, Cass. Here.

Snerk. Same music? Nope. We don't even read to the end of posts where we've been tagged with trackbacks to the base url of the blogs...

And I got snarked about it by my own minions!

wow, I'm so ashamed that I never saw this until I did a linkto check to see who linked to me. I am so sorry I missed this.
but I won't let that stop me from replying since I REALLY love these kinds of thingies.
you picked a doozie, Cass, as I am about as much of a music freak as there ever was.
why do I only get to pick 7?!!?!??
anywho... without any further um... hesitation... um...
I have followed the prescribed orders here
