Music Meme
Yanked from PJ: 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, shaping your spring. Post these instructions in your LJ along with your 7 songs.

[Links go to youtube. Anything I didn't like to is either too obscure/bad, or is available for free download at OCReMix or Anime Remix.]

1. "Love Theme from Romeo and Juliet," Henry Mancini
(Never seen the movie, so don't take this as a comment on my viewing material.)

2. "All You Pretty Girls,," XTC
(I rather like XTC, but I've only heard it on the radio and through Succubal mixes. Anyway, it's fun.)

3. "Run Runaway," Slade
(I'm not apologizing for this. It's also fun for long car trips.)

4. "Lolita," Elefant
(Should be obvious...the Succubus got me started with that crazy French song, and I came across this one by accident... Anyway, many apologies for the Harry Potter vid. The ones with the singers had horrid audio quality.)

5. TIE "Gilgamesh: Things Left Behind," and "Wolf's Rain: This Time Tomorrow," DJPretzel
(Couldn't decide which I liked better, but I knew I wanted one of these on the answer sheet, because I loves me some Singing Pretzel.)

6. "Cup of Coffee," Garbage
(Sorry -- it's emo. I found this while looking for something good for coffee shop music. Not...exactly what I had in mind, but I like it anyway.)

7. "Burning Flame," Vitamin Z
(I could sing this all day long. In fact, I did, today. Viva la 80's!)

Ahh, so many songs that didn't get in here...take some honorable mentions:

"Anyplace, Anywhere, Anytime," Nena and Kim Wilde
(It's forever associated with Yami and Yuugi yaoi for me, but I love the vid, so deal with it. =P The vid is no longer on youtube, but you can find it on anime music videos if you're curious. And I'm downloading a copy now, because I can't be without my crack...)

"JENOVA Celestial," bLiNd
(Possibly the best mix of Jenova's theme evar.)

"Black Wing Metamorphosis," almost everybody at OCReMix
(Probably the best mix of One Wing Angel evar. Of course, if it were double the length it is now, nirvana would be reached. Or our heads would explode from the awesome. Either way, it's too great for mere mortals. =P)

"Peppe Sailormoon," Proffe
(I'm sure this was a joke. That's why it's so great. But then, one of my most played tracks is "Zelda: The Music of my Groin." My taste is not to be trusted!)

"White Rabbit," Jefferson Airplane
(I am amused that this was appropriated to sell videogames.)

"Heimdalsgate Like a Promethean Curse," of Montreal
(Chemicals don't flatten my mind!)

Am experimenting with that abused and neglected dog. I'm letting her have access to the living room tonight. NOW, I took up the rug a while back, because it stank and I can't get my mother to share her steam cleaner =P and I took up the other rug that's lightweight, because she'd think it was a blanket and chew the hell out of it. So that leaves...wood floor, and the pads on the rocking chair. Nothing that can't be salvaged if she has her first accident since Christmastime.

I'm actually more concerned that the cats will be pissed, because they are lazy fucks now and stay in the living room. I took the litterbox up (otherwise Aries would eat her favorite treat, yum yum!) and doused the location with Pee Pee Solution. We shall see. The last time I am 99% sure Oscar peed in there was when a feral cat was chillaxin' on the front porch, so I can't really blame him...but if they dump a load in the corner where the box was, then I'll know they're just too lazy to walk to the back porch.

PS, this weather fails.

PPS, my new walkway saved me from muddy feet when I set out the trashcans tonight.

PPPS: This was a night of awesome comics. See?
Looking for Group
8 Bit Theater

I honestly can't tell you which one has me more excited right now. (NB, 8BT will only work until Friday at midnight, and LFG will change on Monday at midnight, if I'm not mistaken, so look before then or miss the joke! Or, uh, go back in the archives. Yeah.)

LFG should be accessible to everyone. The thing that has me so happy about 8BT...you may not get unless you know some Final Fantasy.
