Friday iPod Challenge, Yeah Yeah Shut Up Edition

You all whine when I'm even a little LATE with this thing, and yet last week no one played at all!

I'm moving on Wednesday. I want to die.

If you want to know, and I know you do, what I thought of last night's Celebrity Duets and the show in general, go here.

My iPod Challenge is a little something I stole from Roxanne at Rox Populi, and which was in turn stolen from me by JeffB at Club Kingsnake. You can play at his blog, too, and possibly win an iPod, so I can see why you can't be bothered with me anymore. Ungrateful bitches.

Do this: Set your MP3 player or music software to randomly shuffle all the music in your library. It has to be as random as it can possibly be in the sense that it needs to shuffle ALL your music, not just a specific playlist, and you don't get to edit the results, however, Gina has shared with me this Wall Street Journal article that clearly casts doubt on the genuine randomness of the iPod shuffle feature, so consider yourself disclaimed.

Here's mine:

1. Saddest Song - Pansy Division
2. Man In Black - Johnny Cash
3. You Are The Everything - R.E.M.
4. Poses - Rufus Wainwright
5. Coming Back To You - Martin Gore
6. Jean Genie - David Bowie
7. Crosseyed And Painless - Talking Heads
8. Waiting - The Style Council
9. Ode to Billy Joe - Phranc
10. Malaria - Shriekback

Now you show me  yours.

1. The Crying Game from the movie of the same name, sung by Boy George. It’s really a beautiful song.
2. Bigger is Better from Howard Crabtree’s When Pigs Fly. Not it’s not about what you think. ;)
3. Joseph all the Time from Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat
4. At the Ballet from A Chorus Line
5. Land of Canaan by the Indigo Girls
6. The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down by Joan Baez. I’ve always loved Joan.
7. Montage, Part 1: Hello, Twelve from A Chorus Line
8. Hawaiian Wedding Song from When Pigs Fly. Just imagine what a gay wedding would have been like if it had become legal in Hawaii in the 90's and then make it funnier. ;)
9. Livin’ La Vida Loca by Ricky Martin. This should probably be on my “embarrassment” playlist. ;)
10. Halloween from Rent. You can’t possibly still be surprised that I have so much Broadway music, right? Right?

Sigh ... this is the embarrasment list:

1. “Time, Love And Tenderness” -- Michael Bolton & Lucy Lawless

2. “Oh, Baby Baby” -- Smokey Robinson & Lucy Lawless

3. "Whenever I Call You Friend" -- Kenny Loggins & Lucy Lawless

4. "Footloose" -- Kenny Loggins & Lucy Lawless

5. “I'll Never Love This Way Again" -- Dionne Warwick & Lucy Lawless

6. "I Say A Little Prayer" -- Dionne Warwick & Lucy Lawless

8. "My Immortal" -- Evanescence

9. "Burial" - XWP Soundtrack, S1 -- Lucy Lawless

10. "Tango to Evora" -- Loreena McKennit

A one-track mind is a terrible thing, but I still hold Christie personally responsible for this thing that has happened to me!

Pfffft...you are grumpy. *duck*

Oh...I suppose I'll forgive ya, all things considered.

1) Rapture--Blondie (Brings back youthful memories)
2) Freeway Of Love--Aretha Franklin (just a fun ditty that I like to wiggle to *I DO NOT dance*)
3) Victim of Love--The Eagles (It's the Eagles, there is no explanation)
4) Catch me While I'm Sleeping--P!ink (so I'm predictable)
5) Set Me On Fire--Type O Negative (what deep dark vamp doesn't listen to Type O?)
6) Full Circle--Loreena McKennitt (my light side)
7) Love Song--P!nk (yea)
8) Goodnight Moon--Shivaree (I *LOVE* this song, first heard it on Kill Bill 2, I play it on a loop most times)
9) Stigmata Martyr--Abney Park (local Seattle band, most popular in Cali so they don't play here much, I love their music: http://www.abneypark.com/)
10) Plaster Caster--KISS (*incredulous look* How did that get in there??)
