Susan over at shoesandships tagged me yesterday (all the way from Sweden) with this music meme. It's been funny to click through everyone else's answers. The music we listen to is all too revealing...
1. Total amount of music files on your computer: 10.24 GB (room to grow)
2. The last CD you bought was: The Delays ~ Faded Seaside Glamour.
3. What is the song you last listened to before reading this message? Gypsy ~ Fleetwood Mac
4. Write down 5 songs you often listen to or that mean a lot to you.
Warm Sound ~ Zero 7. You can't hide from the truth when you use itunes, this is the most played song in my online music library. Yikes...talk about obsessive. (Listen to warm sound played live on kcrw, it's the first song.)
Mangerine Melodie ~ Stereolab. It's the kind of song, where you involuntarily start dancing. If you're in your chair it may just be a head bob or a foot tap, if you're on the floor watch out! It always gets me in a good mood, a very fun song on road-trips! (Listen real audio)
Breathe ~ Telepopmusik. Have you ever noticed how all of the best songs are played on car commercials? I heard a snippet of this song for the first time during an advertisment for the mitsubishi eclipse 3 years ago. The girl in the passenger seat was dancing with her hands while lip synching. Stuck in my head, and not knowing who the group was, I found it after obsessively searching on the internet under "mitsubishi commercial". Incidentally that's also how I first found Nick Drake's song Pink Moon (old jetta commercial), and Bill Wither's "lovely day" (old gap commercial). (Listen to Breathe real audio via Bigbaer)
Mayfly ~ Rasputina. I've gone through many mad cycles of songs on repeat with Rasputina, this is my current favorite. The reason I love them, they are the only band I can think of that can combine classical, rock, ambient, industrial, and pop music into a seamless whole. ( listen to a clip via Amazon)
I'd rather dance with you ~ the King's of Convenience. I couldn't possibly resist them, after I watched this video.
5. Who are you going to pass this stick to? (3 persons) and why?
Christina (my sister), she often associates music with her artwork so I think her answers will be interesting. Giao, because I know she's a fellow music junkie, and Yvonne because I'm curious what's being listened to in Holland.
