Music Meme

I'm feeling meme-tastic today!

Actually, I meant to do this the other day but see, here's the deal. I have issues. I worry about what the other kids will think about my choices. Will they think I'm cool? Or will they see the inner spaz that I try so hard to hide?

So I made my husband make my list. Because he's so much cooler than I am. Yet he married me. So maybe it's contagious after all?

Here are the songs my husband says I like. Or I should. Or I will.

1. Vitalic "My Friend Dario" . This tune is just really cool.

2. The Blow "Pardon Me" You heard this one and liked it.

3. Spank Rock "Bump" You could pick almost any of these, but I like this one, or "Touch Me"

4. Jay Dee (aka J. Dilla) - he was from Detroit and his story is interesting; read about him here http://www.emusic.com/artist/11609/11609820.html and pick a song from here http://www.emusic.com/album/10898/10898511.html(maybe "workonit")
You'll look pretty cool with both Dilla and Spank Rock on your list.

5. The Horrors "Sheena was a Parasite" Very cool song and better video. They might be scared of you from this one.

6. The Rapture "Whoo! Alright - Yeah . . . Uh huh" Can't find a sound bite of this, but I own it at home. Might be comparable a bit to TV on the Radio, but I like these guys better.

7. Peaches "Two Guys (for Every Girl)" It would be funny if you included her; especially this song.

And the runners-up....

Camera Obscusa - "Lloyd, I'm Ready to be Heartbroken" Doubly cool because they are referencing both Lloyd Cole and a song of his.

Something from the album "Congotronics 2" - I'd pick track 2. Talk about obscure and edgy. Read about the music.

Kind of a punk african tribal music.

I have rethought the Joanna Newsom. You could include her, but seriously I can't make it past 3 minutes of any of her songs (and since most of them are over 9 minutes long, thats not too good).

See? He's so cool. And taken. And somehow he's still madly in love with me, despite the fact that all I ever listen to is the rehearsal cd's for whatever concert I'm in next, which means this:

This guy is so much cooler than his dorky wife.
