the very first meme
okay i got tagged with this music meme by Kaki Cucuk Langit. so here goes...
total # of music files on my computer : currently, 883 songs, 2.5 days, 3.34GB. but i still have CDs that i haven't transferred yet, so expect those numbers to keep on groooowing...
the last CD i bought : i just bought Sinead O'Connor's So Far... The Best Of, and Counting Crows' Hard Candy on Wednesday.
song playing right now : Pretty Piece of Flesh by One Inch Punch, from the Romeo & Juliet soundtrack.
five songs that i listen to a lot, that mean a lot to me : ooh... have to think real hard for this one...
1. the prelude to Bach's Cello Suite No. 1, played on the cello by Yo-Yo Ma (Bach: Six Suites For Unaccompanied Cello). brings tears to my eyes almost everytime i listen to it, it's that good.
2. Caramel by Suzanne Vega (Retrospective). if you've watched this movie, you'll remember it as the song that was playing when Janeane Garofalo and Ben Chaplin were having phone sex. and no, that's not why i like the song.
3. Far End Of The Night by Grant-Lee Phillips (Virginia Creeper). just like how it sounds, and i love this line : "time hangs like a noose before me". how true it is, for the procrastinator extrodinaire that i am, the more time i'm given, the more rope i have to wrap around my neck.
4. Cooling by Tori Amos (To Venus And Back). i love Tori Amos, she sings and plays with such obvious passion, although i can't tell what she's singing unless i actually read the lyrics off the CD sleeve.
5. The Child Is Gone by Fiona Apple (Tidal). i fell in love with her voice the very moment i heard it, and i can still remember when and where : i was 16, TV2 was playing the Shadowboxer music video. didn't get the Tidal album until last year, although i bought When The Pawn... when it came out. love her lyrics too.
[a.n. since i'm having so much fun with this meme, and since this is my blog and i'll write whatever i want to, i'll ignore the question and just keep listing songs that i like, okay?]
6. Moonlight Kiss by Bap Kennedy (the Serendipity soundtrack). this song brings back memories of all-nighters at the studio, when Tang would play this album, and me and Mel would do our dance "routine". unfortunately, there's just no way to explain the routine, you just have to see it yourselves.
7. Ain't That Lovin' You Baby by Jimmy Reed (the Divine Secrets Of The Ya-Ya Sisterhood soundtrack). another one of those songs that make me want to get up and dance. Mel would love it.
8. Hotel California by The Eagles (Hell Freezes Over). wish i could play like Frey.
9. Light My Fire by Jose Feliciano (Encore). i actually have this on vinyl, so it's not in my laptop, and since i don't have a turntable here, i haven't heard this song in ages, but i absolutely LoveLoveLove Jose Feliciano's live version of this song.
i shall now pass this meme on to : Nadz tersayang, Suki, Salena, eatmisery, New Woman, and whoever else wants to play!
i'd love to ramble on, but i'm off for a day trip to Chester in 6 hours and i need my sleep! have good weekends, everyone!
